ponz (Stephen J Ponzio):
Kinda like a cloud,
I was up, way up in the sky,
And I was feeling some feelings
You wouldn't believe;
Sometimes I don't believe it myself...
So, so what?
What does it matter now?
I was swimming in the haze,
Now I crawl on the ground,
And everything I never liked about you
Has started seeping into me.
Try to laugh about it now,
But isn't it funny
How everything works out;
I guess the joke's on me.
I was up above it.
Now I'm down in it.
I used to be so big and strong.
I used to know my right from wrong.
I used to never be afraid.
I used to be SOMEBODY.

tritan (Poseidon Neptune Triton):
The wonderful thing about Tiggers,
Is a Tigger's a wonderful thing.
Their tops are made out of rubber.
Their bottoms are made out of spring.
They're bouncy, flouncy, pouncy;
Full of fun, fun, fun...
The most wonderful, wonderful thing about
Tiggers is I'm the only one.
I'm... the only one! Grrr...

tron (Andrew H Cytron):
When bad men combine the good must associate, else they will fall one by one.
