femmealunettes: (fun with stopwatches : Ianto)
While I'm on my Ianto kick... this song (which has been on my heavy rotation list this week) reminds me of him.

Vienna Teng - Whatever You Want
he's a company man, your right hand
13 years and counting
no detectable ambitions, a model of efficiency,
far as you can see
he knows every loophole, the art of fine print
massaging the numbers 'til they fit
and every time you ask him for another vanishing act
he half-smiles as if to say
whatever you want,
whatever you want,
whatever you want is fine by me
...
i am the last one you'd ever suspect
of setting the fire, of setting the fire
but as you switch on your TV tomorrow morning,
you'll hear me saying quietly
whatever you want,
whatever you want,
whatever you want is fine by me
oh whatever you say,
whatever you say,
i'll do what you ask me



...also, I think I like the alternate cuts from Pretty. Odd. more than I like the produced versions... definitely of Behind the Sea, at least. I still have most of the album to listen to, though.
