Season 6
6.01: BARGAINING PART ONE
I hit the streets every night
My sacred calling’s to bring the fight
To vampires and demons
So says my programming
Not a woman, and not a girl
One chosen robot in all the world
To scour the cemeteries
Clean up the back alleys
And all my living friends
Are trying to pretend I’m real
When they look at me
All that they can see
Is somebody who is long gone
When they look at me
All that they can see
Is somebody who it hurts to miss
Each day I’m up with the sun
To do the work of the chosen one
I make the sandwiches!
Parent teacher meetings!
When night falls, back on my grind
To be the scourge of all monsterkind
Pie plates and marzipan
So says my programming
And all my living friends
Are keeping secret things from me
When they look at me
All that they can see
Is somebody who is long gone
When they look at me
All that they can see
Is somebody who it hurts to miss
6.02: BARGAINING PART TWO
I hit the streets every night
My sacred calling’s to bring the fight
To vampires and demons
So says my programming
The curtain fell, I was done
But there’s no choice for the chosen one
Seems I’ll forever be
Scouring cemeteries
And all my living friends
Are trying to pretend I’m real
When they look at me
All that they can see
Is somebody who was long gone
When they look at me
All that they can see
Is somebody who it hurt to miss
Dug my way up through the dirt
Clawing and climbing for all I’m worth
Up to a burning world
My vision dimmed and blurred
Night stretches endlessly on
Don’t know if I’ll ever see the dawn
Keep fighting, keep breathing
So says my programming
For my living friends
I’m trying to pretend I’m real
When I look at me
All that I can see
Is somebody who is long gone
When I look at me
All that I can see
Is somebody who it hurts to miss
I gave what I had to give
Gave you my only gift
I let go but
You, you never did
6.03: AFTER LIFE
I’m a great big energy blob
I’m a great big energy blob
I rode in on your resurrection
I am who I am, don’t ask any questions
I’m a great big energy blob
I’m a great big energy blob
I like looking like your friends
Breaking lots of glass
Smelling all the death
Movin really fast
Scooting all around
Underneath the wallpaper
I’m a great big energy blob
I’m a great big energy blob
If you’re wondering ‘bout my story, well
Sometimes I’m corporeal
And other times I’m not
I’m just a great big energy blob
I like making you see skulls
On all of your snapshots
Breathing lots of flame
Inside the Magic Box
Scooting all around
Underneath the carpeting
I’m a great big energy blob
I’m a great big energy blob
Floating like a sentient mist
And thank you so much for the tip
‘Bout who I should knock off
I’m a great big energy blob
I love to whisper lots of things
That are discouraging
Right into your ear
Like “You don’t belong here”
Scooting all around
Under the linoleum
I’m a great big energy blob
I’m a great big energy blob
At least before you cut my head off
I was great big energy blob
6.04: FLOoDED
Drip drip drop
It doesn’t stop
No matter how I try
Don’t know when
The dread crept in
But I think I know why
Flooded on the inside
Swimming with my hands tied
Never felt so useless
Don’t know how to do this
Tick tick tock
The hands don’t stop
They pull me right along
Usually
I save the day
But I can’t fix what’s wrong
Flooded on the inside
Swimming with my hands tied
Never felt so useless
Don’t know how to do this
Up to my ankles, up to my knees
The water is rising up inside of me
Up to my ribcage, up to my chest
I’m trying I’m trying I’m trying my best
Flooded on the inside
Swimming with my hands tied
Never felt so useless
Don’t know how to do this
Drip drip drop
Keeps adding up
Until I just can’t breathe
6.05: LIFE SERIAL
While I was buried way deep down
Six feet underneath the ground
Somehow I spent all the money that there was
Five months later I awoke
Freshly un-dead, freshly broke
I wish money didn’t matter but it does
I been working the late shift for a while
I been working the late shift with a smile
I work the night away but I don’t get paid
For my time
Four people livin in my house
But three of them aint helping out
Turns out bills aren’t magic and won’t pay themselves
I make swamp monsters go ker-plat
In two pigtails and one hard hat
But fighting demons doesn’t put food on the shelves
I been working the late shift for a while
I been working the late shift with a smile
I work the night away but I don’t get paid
For my time
When life tells me to ante up
I’ll try some whiskey in my cup
Never thought that I’d end up
Backroom kitten-poker drunk
*** kitten choir break ***
I been working the late shift for a while
I been working the late shift with a smile
I worked my nights away but I don’t get paid
For my time
6.06: ALL THE WAY
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
Feel like I have deva vu
This situation does not feel new
One British scamp comes to mind
Doin costume mischief, working overtime
And hanging back for Giles to find
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
Could swear I’ve been here before
Knocking on some dumb frat house door
I’ve seen some stuff that’s bizarre
But award for “Smallest Demon” goes to: Gachnar!
I stepped on him, said “au revoir”
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
Back where I started again
All Hallow’s Eve just might be my end
Mystical sisters are fine
But teenage boys are the thorn in my side
This is my one night off
Why don’t you just get lost
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
It’s always fucking something on Halloween
6.07: ONCE MORE, WITH FEELING
I’m just tryna get some light back
Scared that it’s forever gone
Maybe we can find it in the feedback
Somewhere there’s a hidden song
I go the only way I’ve ever known
A step, and then, again, another one
I’m just tryna get some light back
Scared that it’s forever gone
Maybe we can find it in the feedback
Somewhere there’s a hidden song
I fight the only way I’ve ever done
A step, and then, again, another one
I’m just tryna get some light back
Scared that it’s forever gone
Maybe we can find it in the feedback
Somewhere there’s a hidden song
6.08: TABULA RASA
La la la la look at me go
Who am I? I don’t really know
But I’ve got fists that are made out of stone
Don’t mess with Joan
You know that thing
Where you wake up in an empty store with a bunch of strangers
You don’t know your name
But in no time you’re affronted with a boatload of danger
Dudes drop by lookin’ to bite
Demanding we send out spikes
La la la la look at me go
Who am I? I don’t really know
But I’ve got fists that are made out of stone
Don’t mess with Joan
Don’t mess with Joan
That feeling when
You awake with brand new fighting skills that sure come in handy
I’m ten by ten
Guess this whole world-savin’ thing is left up to me and Randy
AN-ya will protect the cash
Umad’s a pain in my ass
La la la la look at me go
Who am I? I don’t really know
But I’ve got fists that are made out of stone
Don’t mess with Joan
Don’t mess with Joan
Don’t mess with Joan
Don’t mess with Joan
Playing hero sure is fun
But I bet when my memories come
Back to me
I’ll feel better
6.09: SMASHED
BUFFY:
I’ve been fighting so hard
I’ve been running so far
Tryna make this hunger
Go away
Try to kill the feeling
Somehow it just creeps in
Deepening to craving
Day by day
Can’t let the walls come down
Let the walls come down
Can’t let the walls come down
Let the walls come down
SPIKE:
You’ve been going through some changes
Still running through your paces
We don’t have to complicate it
A simple plan:
We could make a little earthquake
Do it til the floors break
If you’re wanna make a mistake
I’m your man
Just let the walls come down
Let the walls come down
Let the walls come down
Let the walls come down
BOTH:
I don’t want to want you but I do
I don’t want to want you
BUFFY:
But I let the walls come down
SPIKE:
Let the walls come down
BUFFY:
I let the walls come down
SPIKE:
Let the walls come down
6.10: WRECKED
Coming up on something that you never thought you’d see
Turning into someone that you never thought you’d be
In your heart you already know just what you need to do
Get ahold of the dark before it gets ahold of you
When you can’t see out then you know it must be true
If you have the power then the power has you
Ooh
Why is it so hard to let go
Ooh
I think that you already know
Coming up on something that I never thought I’d see
Turning into someone that I never thought I’d be
In my blood I’m repeating what I tell myself to do
Get a grip on the dark before it gets a grip on you
But you know nowadays it’s a little hard to see
Do I have the dark or does the dark have me
Ooh
Why is it so hard to let go
Ooh
I think that I already know
6.11: GONE
Oh god it’s another day
On this mortal coil
I’ve been feeling mostly grey
Since I clawed up through the soil
I was just waiting for
My own trap door
To let myself out through
Now you see me, now you don’t
Don’t wanna be me, so I won’t
Was crushed beneath the weight of responsibility
Now I’m just trying to live my best life invisibly
Felt like I had no place left to go, so
Now you see me, now you don’t
I’m only trying to have some fun
Undetectably
Think I like me better when
Nobody can see
I’m just trying to
Cut myself loose
From all that came before
Now you see me, now you don’t
Don’t wanna be me, so I won’t
I was crushed beneath the weight of responsibility
Now I’m just trying to live my best life invisibly
Felt like I had no place left to go, so
Now you see me, now you don’t
It’s never gonna be the same as it was before
At least I’m not pretending that I’m fine anymore
Felt like I had no place left to go
Now you see me, now you don’t
6.12 DOUBLEMEAT PALACE
Burgers and fries
Burgers and fries
Didn’t know that I was in for murder and lies
Making my way
Making some change
Tryna get the Slayer just a little bit paid
Burgers and fries
Burgers and fries
Thought it might be normal but instead a surprise
Eight hour days
For minimum wage
But that’s actually a lot more than my other job pays
Yeah, coworkers die
Yeah, the fryer self-fries
Yeah, I sneak out to the dumpsters to fuck a dead guy
Burgers and fries
Burgers and fries
A finger in the grinder, God how is this my life?
I found out what’s in The Doublemeat
But it’s something that I swore I won’t repeat
Burgers and fries
Burgers and fries
Next time you can 86 the murder and lies
6.13: DEAD THINGS
If there’s nothing wrong with me
Why is it all wrong in me
There’s a silence that is hanging
After the question mark
When I close my eyes I’m waiting
For a glimmer in the dark
I see me walk across the room
I could be watching from the moon
I do the things I’d never do
If there’s nothing wrong with me
Why is it all wrong in me
It’s a simple conversation
On the long way down
If I was a thing worth saving
I don’t know if I am now
I see me all alone with you
I could be watching from the moon
I do the things I’d never do
If there’s nothing wrong with me
Why is it all wrong in me
6.14: OLDER AND FAR AWAY
Party all night
Party all day
Even if you wanna leave
You know you’re gonna stay
Every year I make the same mistake
(all right all right)
Stick a candle in my birthday cake
(all right all right)
It never ends well
What is this fresh hell
Could be a curse
Or maybe a spell
That makes us
Party all night
Party all day
Even if you wanna leave
You know you’re gonna stay
and party with me!
and party with me!
How ‘bout the year I got my powers stolen
(bad vibe bad vibe)
Or when my boyfriend went and lost his soul, damn!
(vamp night vamp night)
Oh when will I learn
That when the year turns
More likely than not
I’m gonna get burned
and we’ll
Party all night
Party all day
Don’t matter if you wanna leave
You know you’re gonna stay
and party with me!
Every year I make the same mistake
Stick a candle in my birthday cake
Party all night
Party all day
Even if you wanna leave
You know you’re gonna stay
and party with me!
and party with me!
and party with me!
and party with me!
6.15: AS YOU WERE
My dead boyfriend and my ex
One’s all blood and cigarettes
The other’s corn and turtlenecks
My dead boyfriend and my ex
Yeah they puff up their feathers
Like two cocks about to crow
I got no time for this
I should be on patrol
A tall drink of water
And yet another drink of blood
Riley’s got a facial scar
And Spike is in the buffI think I’d take a ride with either one
My dead boyfriend and my ex
And a bunch of demon eggs
I know it’s really not a flex
To show off my dead boyfriend to my ex
Yeah they keep playing doctor
Should I leave them on their own?
I got no time for this
I should be on patrol
A tall drink of water
And yet another drink of blood
Riley’s got a facial scar
And Spike is in the buff
I think I’d take a ride with either one
My dead boyfriend and my ex ex ex
My dead boyfriend and my ex ex ex
My dead boyfriend and my ex ex ex
My dead boyfriend and my ex ex ex
My dead boyfriend and my ex
Got one heartbeat and four biceps
How ‘bout a pushup contest
‘Tween my dead boyfriend and my ex
A tall drink of water
And another drink of blood
A splash of hot wife
I’m thirsty for everyone
My dead boyfriend and my ex ex ex
My dead boyfriend and my ex ex ex
My dead boyfriend and my ex ex ex
My dead boyfriend and my ex ex ex
6.16: HELL’S BELLS
Wedding bells are ringing
Ding dong ding dong dinging
String quartet is stringing
All systems are go
All your friends and family
Gathered for the big day
Now I need to just say
What you already know
Like burlap to blood larvae
You’re perfect for each other
And you share a love that
Lights the way, so
Onward and upward
I love you with all my heart
Forever forward
This is your brave new start
It’s natural to feel scared
Change can be a nightmare
But your best friend is right there
Waiting just for you
No more solitaire now
You’re one half of a pair now
All your life you’ll share now
You’ll walk along as two
Like burlap to blood larvae
You’re perfect for each other
And you share a love that
Lights the way, so
Onward and upward
I love you with all my heart
Forever forward
This is your brave new start
I never knew that you could lose your way
I don’t know how to say
Forlorn and fractured
The beat of a broken heart
So long to forward
So long to your brave new start
6.17 NORMAL AGAIN
Oh you tried to fuck with me
And alter my reality
But I got all my friends with me
Oh-oh
Every time you try to be
Controlling my autonomy
You dig yourself even more deep
Oh-oh
I know what I know
And I got something to fight for
I know who I am
So you can see yourself out
Know me better than you
And my friends all believe me
I know that I know
What my story is about
Oh you tried to fuck with me
And alter my reality
But I got all my friends with me
Oh-oh
Every time you try to be
Controlling my autonomy
You dig yourself even more deep
Oh-oh
I know what I know
And I got something to fight for
I know who I am
So you can see yourself out
Know me better than you
And my friends all believe me
I know that I know
What my story is about
6.18: ENTROPY
Okay, I’ll say I feel bad for the way
That it played out, played out
I know you know that I had to let go
Find the way out, way out
Said some things, I know they’re hard to hear
But now you’re whispering in someone else’s ear
Maybe I got what I deserved
Doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt
I got a taste of the lonely sting
When you get what you want then you pay for it
I thought someday you would see that I saved
You some burning, burning
Maybe it’s nice with your hand on the knife
You can turn it and turn it
Said some things it’s hard to hear, I swear
I was only trying to take care… of us
Maybe I got what I deserved
Doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt
I got a taste of the lonely sting
When you get what you want then you pay for it
Maybe I got what I deserved
Doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt
I got a taste of the lonely sting
When you get what you want then you pay for it
6.19: SEEING RED
I made a lot of men cry
Never thought about why I did
You gave me unthinkable pain
Now I would like to repay that shit
Men men men men men men men men men
You haven’t changed in a millennium
Same thing over and over again
You haven’t changed in a millennium
You all make promises we choose to believe
And when we fall for what you say, then you leave
Got me thinking that the problem is you
Tell you what I’ma do:
F to the L to the A to the Y-Y-Y
How could you look in my face and just lie lie lie
K to the I and on to the L-L-L
First you can beg and then you can go to hell
I made a lot of men cry
Never thought about why, mm mm
Then you ripped the heart out of me
Now I’m ready to make you bleed, mm mm
6.20: VILLAINS
Fire in my eyes
Fire in my eyes
There’s a hole, there’s a hole in the wicked world
It was left in the place of my only girl
I don’t know who I am cause she’s gone from me
Now the lines start to blur, all I see is
Fire in my eyes
Now you’re gonna die
Fire in my eyes
Now you’re gonna die die die die die
There’s a hole, there’s a hole in my aching chest
Doused in blood of the one I could not protect
In my guts, in my soul, everything’s gone black
All I know: when I go I’m not coming back
Fire in my eyes
Now you’re gonna die
Fire in my eyes
Now you’re gonna die die die die die
Now you’re gonna die
There’s a hole, there’s a hole in the wicked world
It was left in the place of my girl
Fire in my eyes
Now you’re gonna die
Fire in my eyes
Now you’re gonna die die die die die
Now you’re gonna die die die die die
Now you’re gonna die die die die die
Now you’re gonna die die die die die
6.21 TWO TO GO
If I could if I could talk to you
I’d try to stop what you’re going to do
It’s not right
But nothing is right
Wish I could wish I could show to you
Love in the hearts of the friends you knew
It so much
But is it enough
It’s tough
Could it be enough
I don’t know how to reach you
Lost in a long dark night
I’d give it all just to see you
Come home in one piece
Come home and say you’re all right
Maybe there’s really no stopping you
But I just wish I could to talk to you
You’re not right
But nothing is right
You’re not right
But nothing is right
I don’t know how to reach you
Lost in a long dark night
I’d give it all just to see you
Come home in one piece
Come home and say you’re all right
It’s not right
But nothing is right
6.22 GRAVE
Never knew a dark so dark as that
How’d I get so tangled up in it
Filled me from the inside out with nothing
Couldn’t seem to fill my lungs with air
A crushing in my chest I could not bear
But something lightened up, now I can breathe again
Out of the grave look to the light
Out of the grave and back to life
I know I’ve been a million miles away
But I was trying to reach you every day
Got a little lost, now I’m coming back around
Never felt the sun rise close as this
Glow on everything that it touches
Blinking in the bright I couldn’t see from so far down
Out of the grave look to the light
Out of the grave and back to life
So long to being so lost
So long to being so lost
Out of the grave look to the light
Out of the grave and back to life
