Cruella de Ville - Those two dreadful children

Hey!

Hello!
We're those two dreadful children; we're always very bold.
We make a special point of never doing what we're told.
We're those two dreadful children; we search and we destroy.
We do a lot of damage for just one girl and boy.

We're those two dreadful children; we delight in causing pain.
We once tied up the housemaid and we beat her again and again.
And, when she came 'round again, she made as if to shout
So we got a bunch of flowers and we stuffed them in her mouth.

We're those two dreadful children; our parents can't control us.
Between us we're so dreadful no reform school will enroll us.
We're those two dreadful children; so watch out for her and me.
We'll put thumbtacks in your slippers; powdered glass into your tea.

We we we we we we we we are are are are are are are
Those two dreadful children and we always go too far.
We we we we we we we we are are are are are are are
Those two dreadful children and we always go too far.

We've got a sense of humor but we havn't any cares.
Oh how I had to laugh when we kicked granny down the stairs.
On our tippy-toes we crept right up where she was standing,
And the tears ran down my face as she lay bleeding on the landing.
And when we called out "Mama! Quick! We think our granny's dying!"
And when Mama came a-running we pretended to be crying.
We said "We saw her trip"; they couldn't tell that we were lying
And since Granny was unconscious she was doing no denying!
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.

We're those two dreadful children; destruction is our aim.
People who have delt with us are never quite the same.
We like to torture babies and to leave them in the rain.
We're those two dreadful children; we delight in causing pain.

We we we we we we we we are are are are are are are
Those two dreadful children and we always go too far.
We we we we we we we we are are are are are are are
Those two dreadful children and we always go too far.

"Say, do you remember when our Auntie stayed the night?"
"Oh yes, we crept up to her bedroom and we set her hair alight
And at the breakfast table next day Auntie looked a fright.
And out dear aunt, who was always given to understatement,
declared that she had slept 'badly' that night."

Like a rotten dental cavity
We're lousy with depravity.
Sell Mother down the river all for just one dime.
Some children are adorable.
We'd rather be deplorable.
We'd like to tell you more but we just haven't got the time.
(We're too busy being thoroughly detestable.)

And then, one day, a lady came to us and told us
That all we really wanted was love, and so...
We got her by the arms and legs and swung her in the air,
Then we kicked her in the stomach and we grabbed her by the hair,
Then we poked her eyes with pencils and stuck marbles up her nose,
Then we dragged her 'round the garden where the poison-ivy grows.
And after that we stopped and said "I think the lady knows... That"
We're those two dreadful children; we're always playing games.
We once burned down the house because we both felt like a change.
We're those two dreadful children...

But take one look into our sweet angelic faces and let it not be forgotten
That deep down at heart we're both really... ROTTEN.

We we we we we we we we are are are are are are are
Those two dreadful children and we always go too far.
We we we we we we we we are are are are are are are
Those two dreadful children and we always go too far.

The Bravery- Unconditional

I've spent my whole life surrounded
and I've spent my whole life alone
I wonder why, I never wonder why
The easiest things are so hard

Chorus:

I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing

I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser
I'm accused, I'm an accuser
But nothing's unconditional

I hold the whole world accused
I've only got myself to blame
I wonder why, I never wonder why
The easiest things are so hard

repeat chorus twice

I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser
I'm accused, I'm an accuser
But nothing's unconditional

I find music to be so incredibly powerful and I love it when I find a song that explains me or describes me or I can relate to it.

I love the song Meet Virginia by Train. I feel like it is me even if the speicifics are a little different. This woman definitely has ADHD. It really does strike me as so familiar. My favorite line is, She only drinks coffee at midnight, when the moment is not right, her timing is quite-unusual. You see her confidence is tragic, but her intuition magic... And there is something so intriguing about the thought of someone like me screaming I don't really want to be the queen...

She doesn’t own a dress, her hair is always a mess
If you catch her stealin, she won’t confess
She’s beautiful
She smokes a pack a day, oh wait, that’s me but anyway
She doesn’t care a thing about that, hey,
She thinks I’m beautiful
Meet virginia
She never compromises, loves babies and surprises
Wears hi-heels when she exercises
Ain’t that beautiful
Meet virginia
Well she wants to be the queen
Then she thinks about her scene
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don’t really wanna be the queen
Her daddy wrestles alligators, mama works on carburetors
Her brother is a fine mediator for the president
Well here she is again on the phone
Just like me hates to be alone
We just like to sit at home, and rip on the president
Meet virginia
Well she wants to live her life
Then she thinks about her life
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don’t really wanna live this life
She only drinks coffee at midnight, when the moment is not
Right, her timing is quite-unusual
You see her confidence is tragic, but her intuition magic
And the shape of her body - unusual
Meet virginia-i can’t wait to
Meet virginia-yea

Never heard that one  before.  Reminds me of the good ol' group I used to love "Oingo Boingo".  They were so hyper, creative and bouncy I dare anyone to be depressed while they play!!

Their song "only a lad" is kind of like that one.

Johnny was bad, even as a child everybody could tell
Everyone said if you don’t get straight
You’ll surely go to hell

But johnny didn’t care
He was an outlaw by the time that he was
Ten years old
He didn’t wanna do what he was told
Just a prankster, juvenile gangster

His teachers didn’t understand
They kicked him out of school
At a tender early age
Just because he didn’t want to learn things
(had other interests)
He liked to burn things

The lady down the block
She had a radio that johnny wanted oh so bad
So he took it the first chance he had
Then he shot her in the leg
And this is what she said
Only a lad
You really can’t blame him
Only a lad
Society made him
Only a lad
He’s our responsibility
Only a lad
He really couldn’t help it
Only a lad
He didn’t want to do it
Only a lad
He’s underprivileged and abused
Perhaps a little bit confused

His parents gave up they couldn’t influence his attitude
Nobody could help
The little man had no gratitude

And when he stole the care
Nobody dreamed that he would
Try to take it so far
He didn’t mean to hit the poor man
Who had to go and die
It made the judge cry

Only a lad
He really couldn’t help it
Only a lad
He didn’t want to do it
Only a lad
He’s underprivileged and abused
Perhaps a little bit confused

It’s not his fault that he can’t believe
It’s not his fault that he can’t behave
Society made him go astray
Perhaps if we’re nice he’ll go away
Perhaps he’ll go away
He’ll go away

(repeat chorus)

Hey there johnny you really don’t fool me
You get away with murder
And you think it’s funny
You don’t give a damn if we live or if we die
Hey there johnny boy
I hope you fry!   Ok - it's not cheery sounding but the music to it is.  They use fast beat, horns and a catchy backbeat at that!
