Bad Lyrics Theatre

You can tell it's classy 'cause theatre is spelled with an 're'. Without further ado:
I can't remember the last time
You weren't on my mind
When the star shines
You're making tea smiling
When I'm dreaming
You're picking daisies on Venus with a gas mask

Where ever I go
When ever I am
I see you there
I see you then

Tattooed inside my eyelids
Burned on gaussed retinas
Choking in my throat like we just met
Trying to say my words
Burning on my lips
In the cold absence

Where ever I go
When ever I am
I see you there
I see you then

I see you always
Do you ever see me?
(No I'm not stalking you
I meant that metaphorically)
Always so blind
Those that can see

Where ever I go
When ever I am
I see you there
I see you then
To be sung to the tune of Dueling Banjos

The Definition of Definition

"Ooh, she's pretty hot," Jon whistled.

"Nah, you wouldn't like her, Mr. Secular; she's Mormon," Ben remorselessly shot down.

"Really? Damn." Jon sighed. "That's too bad. But you know, if you think about it, if you discount the fact that she's a Mormon then she's not religious at all."

"What!?" Ben perplexed. "That doesn't make any sense. It's like saying that Republicans are just Democrats who aren't!"

"Exactly! So what's the difference?"

"No, I was being facetious to make a point. They're not the same at all."

"They're only different in how they're defined."

"Ignoring the definition of definition, nothing means anything and anything can mean nothing!"

"Now you're getting it. And so nothing means everything and everything means nothing."

"No!" Ben exclaimed. "Just... no!"
