Lyrics

Ramalama (bang bang)

(high-pitched wailing)

Bang, bang!

Could a body close the mind out
Stitch a seam across the eye
If you can be good, you'll live forever
If you're bad, you'll die when you die

Hearing only one true note
On the one and only sound
Unzip my body
Take my heart out
'Cause I need a beat to give this tune

oo-ooh

oo-ooh

Taking a picture of
Taking a picture of
Taking a picture of

(bang bang)

Oh the body swayed to music
Oh the lightning glance
If I would give it all and all
Maybe you would hear me
Ask for half a chance

Hearing only one root note
Planted firmly in the ground
Undo my heart, unzip my body and
Lend to my ear a clear and a deafening sound

oo-ooh

oo-ooh

Unzip my heart

oo-ooh

oo-ooh

And if I need a rhythm
It'll be to my heart I listen
If it don't put me too far wrong

And if I
And if I

oo-ooh
And if I need a rhythm
It's gonna be to my heart I listen
oo-ooh
If it don't put me too far gone

Everybody smile please
Nobody pay no mind to me
Finger in position on the switch
A little flash photography

Taking a picture of you
to my heart
Taking a picture of
Taking a picture of me
Taking a picture

Ramalama bang bang
Flash bang big bang
Bing bong, ding dong
Dum dum d' dum

With a hammer bang bang
Flash bang press gang
Bing bong, ding dong
Hum hum h’hummm

With a st' stammer
Bang bang
Crash bang
Big bang
Boing boing
Boing boing
Hum hum h’hum

With a st' stammer
bang bang
With a st' stammer
crash bang
With a st' stammer
The bing bang
Crash bang
Big bang
Bing bang
Crash bang

oo-oo

bong bong

oo-oo

oo-oo

bong bong
oo-oo

And if I
And if I need a rhythm
And if I need a rhythm
Gonna be to my heart I listen

And if I
And if I need a rhythm
Gonna be to my heart I listen

And if I
And if I need a rhythm
It’s gonna be to my heart I listen

And if I / Need a rhythm / Gonna be to my
And if I / Need a rhythm / heart I listen
And if I / Need a rhythm
And if I / Need a rhythm
And if I / Need a rhythm
And if I / Need a rhythm
And if I
And if I
Bong
Need a rhythm
Bong
Bong bong

I love this vid so much - it's so gorgeous and beautifully edited. It was definitely one of my favorites of the con!

[marthawells]

Wow, that was fabulous!

[hokuton_punch]

Oh man, this is a GORGEOUS vid - fabulous work! ♥

[lo_rez]

WOW. Beautiful work, and if the source has this kind of edge I'm definitely going to be a fan.

[soukup]

This is freaking amazing. You have just helped me figure out how I want to vid. I love your song choice and I love your editing style -- wow, I can't even imagine how long this must have taken.

I'm so incoherent right now. What I want to say is, I love this, and thank you so much for making it and sharing it.

[flummery]

*beams madly* Thank you!

Also thank you for the fab Vid Review comment (and for writing it down later so we know who said it *g*) -- the percussion of this song really is what made Regina (and magic) the primary focus, and there were a few places where we were specifically, subtly calling back to The Wizard of Oz to cement the "wicked witch" aspect, and we were so stoked that that association came through for you. \o/

[flummery]

Thank you! Please feel free to watch again and then again and then some episodes! We have some even! THE FIRST ONE IS FREE! :D

(Okay, let's retry this from the RIGHT account...)

[flummery]

Thank you!

we thought the beginning of the season rocked, the middle dragged a bit, but then it picked up again, and finished strong!

[flummery]

No one should judge how long it takes to vid a vid by how long we take -- we are *notoriously* slow. Seasons pass while we debate clips.

We're so glad you liked it and we hope you start vidding soon!

[flummery]

Thank you! *beams*

[boomqueen]

Gorgeous! Such a great look at the themes and parallels in the show.

[flummery]

Thank you! The parallels kinda snuck up on us, but we're really happy with how it turned out, and very glad that you like it!

[kmgilles]

this was amazing and gorgeous! ♥♥♥

[flummery]

Thank you! <3

[alchemise]

This is a seriously cool vid. Never have I wanted so much for the bad guys to win. ;D

[unicornherds]

Very cool vid. Loved the intro - about the first 30 seconds with the percussion leading in and all the choice shots of our fav villains. The song seems to work perfectly for this and the editing was spot on. Nicely done.

[ninjababe]

I meant to do this before now... oops...

First, I've adored this song for years, so yay!

Second, this is *perfect*!!!!!!

I adore this... As usual, you guys do awesome work!

I squee and bounce every time I watch this.

[thirdblindmouse]

Well, damn. That is quite a vid. I'll need to watch it several times over.

[lannamichaels]

This is excellent :D

[shallowness]

Fabulous vid - just what I wanted to see as the second series is premiering here tonight. Really rich overview of the show and a classy, quriky vid.

[jb_slasher]

All I can say is: Wow!

[starlady]

That was really great!
