Christopher Lydon
by
The Dresden Dolls

Clutching the phone till my hands were sore
I never understood pain before, Christopher
you cannot know what it does to me
hearing you speak with this frequency

I never knew what one voice could do
I was in heaven the moment I heard you
my friends go out drinking and having fun -
I stay in bed with my headphones on

Shot down with arrows from waves above
Christopher Lydon renounced my love

It took so long to get through to you
I never understood sorrow, and now I do
I finally got past your monitor,
you broke my heart in two, Chrisopher

Christopher, I am your listener, Christopher,
I've never felt love like this before, Christopher,
Christopher, now and forevermore, Chrisopher
I'll never stop saying Christopher, Christopher

Finally I knew what I had to do
I had to make the connection with you
I dont care if you could be my father, dear Christopher,
I will be yours til the bitter end...

So during a show about Joan of Arc
I got through - I said:
"Christopher Lydon, you've stolen my heart"
when I asked if you felt the same way for me
you cut me off like a guillotine

Drawn like a bull to a matador-
I just see visions of Chrisopher
shot down by arrows from waves above
Christopher Lydon renounced my love

Christopher, I was your prisoner, Christopher,
I hope you're happy now, Chistopher
Thank you for everything, but I'm not listening anymore nor do I plan to contribute to NPR
Christopher, what do you take me for, I'm not just any old talk show host groupie....
Oh Christopher.....is there a chance for me?
Christopher...beautiful, beautiful Christopher....beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Christopher....

================================================

This is sidesplittingly funny.

Sadly, there does not appear to be an MP3 of this handy on their site.

(For those who don't get it - [livejournal.com profile] xygar's Wikipedia entry is here. The subject of the song's is here.)

Have a copy of the song? I think our unfortunately-named friend needs to hear it.
