This is the full set list and lyrics for my crooning at the 1999 SubGenius Mutant Prom. Tracks by "Glen Miller" may well be by others, but that's where I learned them from. Spelling and punctuation errors caused by computer, not me. If some of these songs don't appear on your tapes, you haven't donated enough to "Bob," P. O. Box 140306, Dallas TX 75214 USA.

WHO'S SORRY NOW

Who's sorry now, who's sorry now
Who's heart is aching for breaking each vow
Who's sad and blue
Who's crying too
Just like I cried over you
Just like a friend
Right OEtill the end
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way
Now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now

STARDUST

Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely night Dreaming of a song The melody haunts my memory And I am once again with you When our love was new and each kiss an inspiration Oh but that was long ago, now my consolation Is in the stardust of a song Beside a garden wall when stars are bright You are in my arms The nighting gale tells his fairy tale Of paradise where roses bloom OEThough I dream in vain In my heart it will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain

BLUE EVENING

Blue evening After a lonely day Blue evening Spent in the same old way My future looks as grey as the skies above me There must be someone here in this world to love me A sweet love song would be so grand to know But my love songs are all on the radio Another dawn is waiting for me Another day and then Another blue evening again

LOVE WITH A CAPITAL YOU

You may spell love with a capital L But I spell love with a capital you Through the day you're away And I mope and mope and mope And you do too I hope I hope I hope All night through love with a capital you Would just suit me to a capital T I can spell just as well as the dictionaries do But I spell love with a capital you

BABY ME

Baby me
Come on and pet me honey
Baby me
You know when you get me
When you give me that affectionate talk
Like darling cutie precious pretty
I could go for itty bitty
Baby me
Because I love it when you
Baby me
The beauty of it is that
I love you and you love me too
So baby won't you baby me

TWILIGHT INTERLUDE

When twilight slowly lets her curtain downs And pins it with a single star The sleeping memory awakes insde of me And takes my heart to where you are In meditation you are mine again I kiss your lips and softly pray This magic moonlit mood This twilight interlude Will bring you back to me to stay

MY PRAYER

My prayer is to linger with you At the end of the day In a dream that's divine My prayer is a rapture in blue With the world far away And your lips close to mine Tonight while our hearts are aglow Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know My prayer and the answer you give May they still be the same For as long as we live Let you always be there At the end of my prayer

BLUE MOONLIGHT

Blue moonlight enfolds the night And you are my arms delight Sweet are the secrets to tell Here in the spell of Blue moonlight that fills the sky There's some of it in your eyes Or is it what I'm dreaming of Whisper and say it's love The world could stand still I'd never know I'm lost in the thrill of loving you so Here in the glow of Blue moonlight that seems to shine Right into this heart of mine Tell me this heaven is true Tell me you love me too

MELANCHOLY LULLABY

Melancholy lullaby Coming from a troubled sky Winging through the clinging vine Right into this heart of mine Melancholy lullaby Listen to the night wind sigh How can I expect to sleep When I lay me down to weep Your love has cooled from flame to ice And I've been fooled into a fool's paradise Hear the music of the rain Beating on my window pane Wish that I could say goodbye To my melancholy lullaby

(WHY COULDN'T IT LAST) LAST NIGHT

Last night I touched your fingertips And when I touched your lips I fell in love last night Last night I felt your heart beat fast Swiftly the moment passed Why couldn't it last last night Tonight here I am all alone My lovely dream has flown Why must I be alone Last night why did we say goodbye My heart keeps asking why Why couldn't it last last night

STARLIT HOUR

Love here in the starlit hour All heaven is in your eyes While the winds is sobbing underneath the stars Both our hearts are throbbing like two guitars love here in startlit hour Night whispering lullaby Let me dream forever underneath the silvery skies Will it be just as sweet again The glamor the glory that we know Will I find when we meet again The glamor the glory's still aglow But tonight let us forget tomorrow Here under the midnight blue Love will bloom and flower in the starlit hour with you

THE DAY WE MEET AGAIN

The day we meet again
Though it may not be tomorrow
We will soon forget our sorrow
On the day we meet again
Life will be sweet again
We'll be wondering why we parted
We'll be back to where we started
On the day we meet again
While there's a star to shine
My heart has told you
No other arms but mine
Will ever hold you
The day we meet again
All our troubles will be ended
When two broken hearts are mended
On the day we meet again

THE CUCKOO IN THE CLOCK

There they were there they were he was baby talking her And the cuckoo in the clock went cuckoo Every fifteen minutes he blew Cuckoo cuckoo Be a pal be a pal said the fellow to the gal And the cuckoo in the clock went cuckoo I believe they're starting to woo Woo woo woo woo They didn't know that everything they said was overheard They didn't hear that little birdy giving them the word So he said with a sigh who's your little peachie pie And the cucko in the clock went cuckoo Though I'm just a little cuckoo I'm not as cuckoo as you So he closed the door and we're through Cuckoo cuckoo

ROMANCE RUNS IN THE FAMILY

Romance runs in the family So honey what can I do My ma's romanic my pa's romantic and i'm that way about you Romance runs in the family It always played a big part For generations we've been sensations in all afairs of the heart Every one of our dependents down through the centuries Gave away their independence for moments like these and that's the reason Romance runs in the family So honey what do you say My folks would like it if we could strike it the same sweet way

WISHING (WILL MAKE IT SO)

Wishing will make it so Just keep on wishing and cares will go Dreamers tell us dreams come true - it's no mistake And wishes are the dreams we dream when we're awake The curtain of night will part If you are certain within your heart So if you wish long enough wish strong enough you will come to know Wishing will make it so

WE CAN LIVE ON LOVE

We haven't got a pot to cook in No looking glass to look in But our dreams are sweet we seldom eat We can live on love We haven't got a bed to sleep in To count our little sheep in But our hopes are great and we can wait while we live on love Though you may feel we ought to deal in such realities No house no lot no car so what- they're trivialities We haven't got a check to cash in No pot to put our hash in But we've got that thing that comes in spring We can live on love

CINDERELLA

Stay in my arms Cinderella While the clock is striking I'll hold you At the stroke of twelve don't run away Oh can't you hear my heart it begs you to Stay in my arms Cinderella Maybe I'm that fellow Prince Charming Since I met you I've had one desire Your wedding shoes placed next to mine Midnight of midnights and soul divine Cinderella stay in my arms

SUSIE (after "Judy" by Hoagy Carmichael)

If her voice can bring every hope of the spring That's Susie, my susie If her eyes say yes but you're wrong in your guess That's Susie, my Susie And if you hear her call in a soft Southern drawl OEhi stranger' that means danger If you're smart watch your heart OECause she'll upset most anybody's apple cart In a hundred ways you'll be shouting her praise She'll let you, she'll get you And when she sees you fall, she will tell you that's all you wretch you, you betch'you Then you'll know all the heartache of a fool Just like me, just like me If she seems a saint but you find that the ain't that's Susie, sure as you're born

Well, I'm not gonna say that the Mutant Prom, with songmaster Onan, was the very very best thing about the XX-Day weekend, but.... it was prolly pretty close to the top of the list.

It was SO SWEET! Never let it be said that we do our Proms with anything less than TOTAL ADHERENCE TO TRADITION. If course it was wonderful to see all those SubGenii dressed to the Nines, looking so happy with their dates and/or their right hands, and my favorite part was after Onan ran out of Glen Miller type songs, and the SubGenius amateur songsters at large kept coming up to sing. Rev. What's-his-name's rendition of Tom Lehrer's Irish cannibal song, and Modemac-and-Rev.-Aaron's "MODEMAC GRADUATION RAP" stand out especially. And then when Jesus got drunk on two beers and started singing the Overman song, why, I broke my vows to Sing No More Forever, and why I went up and did it too. It was just like New Years. If I'd have thought to pull out my Hendrix CD with Auld Ang Syne on it, the whole crowd would have been reduced to tears.

My very VERY fave part of the prom was watching Nickie and Rev. Angela dance, though. Uh uh uh ka-PLOW!!!! Eyiyiyiyi

Onan was beautiful, I wanted to cry...
