Season 2

2.01: WHEN SHE WAS BAD

When it was done I went away, babadabada
Left my friends behind, tried to forget, tried to forget
Now I'm back it's all the same, babadabada
Nothin' new except this dark inside me, dark inside me
I'm made of stone

If you don't wanna get hurt then you gotta be harder than the thing that's hitting you
If you don't wanna get hurt then you gotta be harder than, harder than 

None of them can understand, babadabada
I don't need them, I can handle myself, handle myself
But it’s lonely where I am, babadabada
Now I’m feelin like I can’t see clearly, can’t see clearly
Don’t leave me alone

If you don't wanna get hurt then you gotta be harder than the thing that's hitting you
If you don't wanna get hurt then you gotta be harder than, harder than

Got so wrapped up that I forgot about protecting you
Now we’re here and I see clear that you protect me too

If we don't wanna get hurt then we gotta be harder than the thing that's hitting us
If we don't wanna get hurt then we gotta be harder than, harder than

2.02: SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED

What’s up with this grave? You know yesterday
It had a girl in it but now she’s away
They’re using her parts and other girls’ parts
Could this be more disgusting? Augh Cordelia found parts

When Daryl was in high school he played football til he fell from some rocks and died
Then his science nerd brother brought him back to life, now he’s lookin for a zombie bride!

Eric’s a dick, these dudes are so sick
They just need a head to finish and Cordelia’s their pick
So during the game they whisked her away
But the abandoned science building will soon be in flames

When Daryl was in high school he played football til he fell from some rocks and died
Then his science nerd brother brought him back to life, so he’s lookin for a zombie bride!

One nice thing that happened to today: 
Giles and Jenny Calendar went on a date
Hope they do it again, well you know what they say --
Librarians and techno pagans always find a waaaaaay

When Daryl was in high school he played football til he fell from some rocks and died
Then his science nerd brother brought him back to life, but he’ll never have a zombie bride!

2.03: SCHooL HARD

Hey it’s Parent-Teacher night, and I’m in charge of every bite
I wasn’t looking for a fight, but a fight came lookin for me
Sheila stabbed a teacher and she’s supposed to help me plan
But I’m pretty sure she won’t, oh man, Snyder’s got it in for me 

You gotta be kidding me, I can’t believe I have to hostess
When Spike just got to town and now he’s talkin’ up some St. Vigeous
It’s makin school hard

Machetes are my favorite way to chop up fancy crudite
I also made some lemonade - my recipe destroyed!
Spike came bustin through the glass, grabbed a 2x4 all like “hulk smash”
But my mom knows how to wield an axe, so you better run boy
yeah you better run boy

We agreed to saturday so what’s up with this early attack
Why’d you have to get up in my face when I just made all these snacks
You’re makin school hard
(School’s hard but slayin’s harder! Hell yeah, I’m my mother’s daughter!) 

Cordelia & Willow are still locked up inside
That utility closet where they went to hide

Tonight gave me lots to process, like Spike and Angel are old friends
But at least the Anointed One is dead, Hooray hooray hooray
That kid was really the worst 

2.04: INCA MUMMY GIRL

Well it’s cultural exchange week here at Sunnydale High School
And we’re hosting lots of students who come from all over the world
There’s a special exhibition down at the natural history museum
Where they’re showin off remains of an Inca princess mummy girl 

Yeah mummies always seem to come with a curse
I never heard of one without
And the Inca princess is no exception
If the seal breaks, the mummy gets out 

And if she kisses you, you’re gonna wish that you ran
Inca mummy girl
Restoring herself anew, suckin the life from you
Inca mummy girl

Well Xander and Ampata seem to really like each other a lot now
And they’re goin on a date to the problematic dance at The Bronze
Dingoes Ate My Baby are a-rockin just as hard as they can now
Thanks to a dreamy lead guitarist whose name is apparently Oz

This is inconvenient but we just found out
Ampata was the mummy this whole time
Xander’s gonna be so totally bummed out
But at least he saved Willow’s life

And if she kisses you, you’re gonna wish that you ran
Inca mummy girl
Restoring herself anew, suckin the life from you
Inca mummy girl

Giles worked so hard gluing that plate
Who knows if Xander will ever find a non-homicidal mate

And if she kisses you, you’re gonna wish that you ran
Inca mummy girl
Restoring herself anew, suckin the life from you
Inca mummy girl

2.05: REPTILE BOY

Things are just extra hard this week
Angel’s mixed messages and Giles layin into me
Feeling like I can barely breathe
Just need to get away and blow off some slayer steam

Cordelia has a plan tonight
She’s got one car and two invites
Choose not to care and so I’ll lie to Giles
Fuck it

All I wanted was a normal night out at this dang frat party
What I got was a heaping scoop of the demon lizard patriarchy
All I wanted was a normal night out at this dang frat party
What I got was a heaping scoop of the demon lizard patriarchy

Don’t know how I’m supposed to be
These guys are playin the part of assholes masterfully
Tom seemed like he was the nice one
Until I woke up in the basement all chained up

Cordelia isn’t helpful but
She’s great at talking through crisis
Chains off I’ll tear this snake right up, uh huh
Fuck it

All I wanted was a normal night out at this dang frat party
What I got was a heaping scoop of the demon lizard patriarchy
All I wanted was a normal night out at this dang frat party
What I got was a heaping scoop of the demon lizard patriarchy

So dudes listen up, don’t chain us up
Metaphorically or literally to make gains financially
Cause if you we’ll come for you
One thing I’ll say is you might not see us til it’s too late
Fuck it

All I wanted was a normal night out at this dang frat party
What I got was a heaping scoop of the demon lizard patriarchy
All I wanted was a normal night out at this dang frat party
What I got was a heaping scoop of the demon lizard patriarchy

2.06: HALLOWEEN

Halloween! It’s supposed to be a slow night
Giles promised it’d be no night for vamp activity
But somebody had a differing opinion
Janos’s devoted minion
Came to Sunny D and brought some anarchy 

It’s the big Halloween switcheroo
It’s the big Halloween switcheroo
You don’t even know who you’re gonna be
It depends where you got your costume you see
It’s the big Halloween switcheroo

Noble gal! That’s the costume I showed up in
Lookin like Angel’s ex-girlfriend - boys just love that right?
Cordelia is somehow cattier than ever
In a leotard of leopard
Hey where’d Willow go? She vanished like a ghost

It’s the big Halloween switcheroo
It’s the big Halloween switcheroo
You don’t even know who you’re gonna be
It depends where you got your costume you see
It’s the big Halloween switcheroo

And then the change - I became completely helpless
Just a damsel in my distress
at Spike’s mercy or lack thereof of course
All my friends came together to my rescue
Held me up til I came back to all the sense I lost
Kristin hit that glock

It’s the big Halloween switcheroo
It’s the big Halloween switcheroo
You don’t even know who you’re gonna be
It depends where you got your costume you see
It’s the big Halloween switcheroo

What became of Ethan Rayne and the chaos god he served?
And when the heck will Oz find out “who is that girl”?!

It’s the big Halloween switcheroo
It’s the big Halloween switcheroo
You don’t even know who you’re gonna be
It depends where you got your costume you see
It’s the big Halloween switcheroo

2.07: LIE TO ME

Late night roof patrol
I see you but you don’t know
That girl looks strange to me
But you look like you’ve known her for a century

I’ll ask and you’ll reply
Where were you last night
You lie to me

You don’t seem the kind
And yet I know you went behind
My back I can’t believe
Never thought you’d do this to me

The reasons that you say
Don’t take away the pain
You lied to me

Now things get less clear
Thought i understood what was happening here
But the lies pile up so high
Can’t dig down to you though i try

To trust you with my heart
Will it always be so hard
Please lie to me

2.08: THE DARK AGE

Never knew that you got into passing out for demon ritu-
als when you were closer to my age
Now these youthful indiscretions surfacing in fearful remnants
Making all your old friends turn into 

Blue goo - that’s how the demon spreads
Blue goo - if you’re unconscious or dead
Blue goo - stay away from that blue goo

Ethan Rayne seems like the kinda nemesis who’s a backbiter
Can’t believe you used to be good friends
Jenny Calendar you love her which is gross cause you’re adults but
No one wanted her to fall into 

Blue goo - that’s how the demon spreads
Blue goo - if you’re unconscious or dead
Blue goo - stay away from that blue goo

My pals are really smart, and also my boyfriend
Is in possession of a useful demon
You said to go away, that you would handle it
Lucky for you I’m no good at listenin
And it turns out we got an actual awful lot
Of stuff in common and we need each other

Blue goo - was how the demon spread
Blue goo - but now that demon’s dead
Blue goo - we saved the whole world from blue goo
...except Philip and Diedre

2.09-2.10: WHAT’S MY LINE 

It’s career week at my high school
Too bad my story is written in stone
Like going to see The Sixth Sense, and somebody ruined the end
Already know just what my future holds

I’m the slayer, I’m the only one
I’ll be fighting til my days are done

You’re the only freaky thing in my freaky life that still makes sense
You’re the only freaky thing in my freaky life that still makes sense

Bounty hunters coming my way
The Order of Terraka is serious
Giles and Angel are scared and I’m feeling underprepared
The walls are closing in, my vision’s blurred

I’m the slayer, I’m the only one
Might be hiding til my days are done

You’re the only freaky thing in my freaky life that still makes sense
You’re the only freaky thing in my freaky life that still makes sense

Someone attacks me, her name is Kendra
Says she’s a slayer with experience
She even got a handbook, man, Spike and Dru have a ritual planned
But nobody messes with my boyfriend 

I'm the Slayer, was alone in the world
But now I'm neck and neck with some other chosen girl

You’re the only freaky thing in my freaky life that still makes sense
You’re the only freaky thing in my freaky life that still makes sense

I follow my instincts
Sometimes it gets dicey but we pull through
Down comes the pipe organ
Think that's the last we’ll see of Spike & Dru

You’re the only freaky thing in my freaky life that still makes sense
You’re the only freaky thing in my freaky life that still makes sense

She’ll ride a plane home, she knows what I know
Someday I'll show her how that crossbow works…

2.11: TED

Here lies Ted
Ted is dead
May he rest
In little pieces
Scraps all heaped up
To the sky

Here lies Ted
No tears shed
He always said
He’d take no malarkey
He had no heartbeat
In his chest

Here lies Ted
The evidence
Of four ex-wives
Found in a closet
In his apartment
Underground

Here lies Ted
May he rest
In deep distress
And never call me
Little lady
Ever again

2.12: BAD EGGS

Bad eggs!
Bad eggs!
Bad eggs!

2.13: SURPRISE

I been lookin at you for a long time
And you been circling me for a while
Like a moon on the shore over low tide
A light in the dark through the miles

I know the closer that you get the less I shake and
We both been getting closer to the edge of something

You make everything fade
You make everything fall away
You make everything fade
You make everything, make everything

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

There’s so many words I wanna tell you
And so many more I don’t have to say
Let’s stay just like this til tomorrow
Get lost in the waves for today 

I know the closer that you get the less I shake and
We both been getting closer to the edge of something

You make everything fade
You make everything fall away
You make everything fade
You make everything, make everything

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

2.14: INNOCENCE

Shadow that lit up my heart
Your stare that took me apart
(how) could i belong in anyone else’s arms
Shadow that lit up my heart

Looking back
I can only ask

Who was that
Who was that
I know that you were standing here
Your face, your words, your heart so clear
(but) who was that

Held you so close, how it burned
When we kissed time stopped its turn
(how) could I belong in anyone else’s arms
Held you so close, how it burned 

Looking back
I can only ask

Who was that
Who was that
I know that I was standing here
My face, my words, my heart so clear
(but) who was that

2.15: PHASES

Ah there’s a werewolf down on Lover’s Lane
Ah there’s a werewolf hiding in the evergreens
Ah there’s a werewolf walkin on hind feet
But even a werewolf’s better than misogyny

Larry grabbed me inappropriately so you know he had to get thrown
It’s enough to make a girl wanna go 

Awoo, awoo, awoo 

Oz is the werewolf much to his surprise
Oz is the werewolf and he hopes that no one dies
Oz is the werewolf mainly cause the moon is full
but even a werewolf is more respectable (than)

Cain who’s such an asshole and he’s lucky that I have a moral code
It’s enough to make a girl wanna go 

Awoo, awoo, awoo 

2.16: BEWITCHED, BOTHERED AND BEWILDERED

Leave it all up to Xander and your goose is cooked
Conjuring spells to mend his broken heart
Cordelia's chasin' plastics and she's overlooked
The feelings of everyone she's torn apart

Magic that you make for all the wrong reasons will fail
Seek the kind of love that runs from eyeballs to entrails
Love is what it's about, even on the hellmouth

Students & teachers, vampires & lunch ladies
Fight over Xander - o lord how they shriek
Where did this trench coat from why do I want cheese
Squeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak squeak squeak squeak

Magic that you make for all the wrong reasons will fail
Seek the kind of love that runs from eyeballs to entrails
Love is what it's about, even on the hellmouth

2.17 PASSION

wait for me
to go back to sleep
what I wish I could do
dream a world where you’re still you

I can feel the ground underneath me crack
silent as the light sky fades to black
now i know that you’re never coming back
to me

what I love, what I need
gone so far away from me
look too close and i blur
can’t fill the hole where you were 

I can feel the ground underneath me crack
silent as the light sky fades to black
now I know that you’re never coming back
to me

2.18: KILLED BY DEATH

There’s a demon that’s ephemeral down at Sunnydale General
In the east side children’s wing
He’s a creepy motherfucker whose eyes are made of suckers
and he’s hungry for children

He’s got those long gross fingers yeah
With a jaunty hat atop his hair
His underbite goes on for miles
but his kryptonite is in these virus vials

Der Kindestod, I’m gonna der kinde-stop you

GIles and Cordelia helped me realize that Celia
didn’t die of a natural cause
Xander’s standin sentry, and barrin Angel’s entry
Willow’s acting like she’s covered in frogs

Backer never stood a change
in that twisted Krueger dance
But I won’t fall for that same trap
instead I’ll give his neck a snap

Der Kindestod, I’m gonna der kinde-stop you

2.19: I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU

Lunchroom snakes, killer bees
Quicksand stairs, and Cordelia -delia’s face
Fights repeat, and Ms. Frank
she fell over the balcony

All because you need
Forgiveness you can’t receive

Go on and haunt somebody else
Cause I’ve got some problems myself
Badder than you
Go on and haunt somebody else
Cause right now you flatter yourself
And closure for you
is so long overdue 

You were here, now you’re gone
You don’t know, but the shape of you still lingers on
Everywhere, can’t escape
from the dirt or the air

All because you need
Forgiveness you can’t receive

Go on and haunt somebody else
I see you’ve forgotten yourself
Hollow straight through
Go on and haunt somebody else
You made me afraid of myself
And closure it’s true
is so long overdue 

2.20: GO FISH

Something fishy has been going on
and I don’t know what to do
Cause all the swim team boys are turning into
creatures from the black lagoon

Well Xander saw one in the lunchroom yeah
Their menu’s always a scare
Based on our data, Gage is next in line
so gentlemen, beware

You smell like low tide
and you’ve got fish eyes
I’d rather you were fried
but you’re steaming in
vaporized fins
all for the wins

Why do the jocks get special privileges?
I’m ten times stronger than them
Social constructs really fuck shit up
Always in favor of men

Coach Carl and Snyder think they know it all
but here’s a lesson that’s real
When winning overpowers everything
you might end up as a guppy meal
or with your nose smashed on a steering wheel

You smell like low tide
and you’ve got fish eyes
I’d rather you were fried
but you’re steaming in
vaporized fins
all for the wins

2.21-2.22: BECOMING

in the time before, my life a thousand open doors
light and full with possibility
then came the call, a pull that I could not ignore
a bell that tolled for me and only me
made me the loneliest girl in california

I turned to stone, life and death to focus on
til a shadow left the wall and reached for me
the slightest smile, you walked beside me for a while
but mistakes we can’t unmake ripped you away
I was the loneliest girl in California

deepest well, examination of myself
reveals the way i know it has to be
now comes the call, oh how i wish i could ignore
the bell that tolls for me and only me
and I'm the loneliest girl in California
