I like listing the sources where you can dowload the mentioned items.

 Unfortunatedly, not all of them are available on the internet. This smiley points to sourceless items.

If you own the item in question, it'd be great to share! And all the better if  you can host the files yourself.

But if not, send them to me and I'll put them up.

 

Notice that, unless allowed by webmaster,  I don't  link directly to files  to avoid band theft.

Frog on my Toe

1800 MARGARITAS

It's my communion, 1800, and I think sometimes I gotta get close to jesus, and it sure looks beautiful, oohh, mmmm....
(spoken: i don't know how this goes!)

 

Right before Tori performed Frog on My Toe, she told the story of how she wrote the song after drinking Margaritas and finding a piano. She played a few bars of the song, laughed and said, "No, no, that's not how the song goes!" Laughing even harder she said that the story about the margaritas was a lie. She said, "This whole tour I have been telling people this story, and its not true. I made it up. I just thought I would tell all of you the truth, I don't know why." Then she shrugged, threw her hands up in the air, and continued playing.

She told a story about how she likes a Margarita every-once-and-awhile "1800, single shot". And talked about how one night, she found a piano right after drinking one, and wrote this song [Frog On My Toe], so "don't blame me if it doesn't make any sense."

PAIN IN MY HOLE  2/3

[Spoken]"No he didn't, no, no no no, he didn't...okay, did he ask me to play Pain In my Hole? oh NO, okay, I'll explain to you what happened..was that in Cleveland? Okay, so in Cleveland, I'll explain to you, so in Cleveland, somebody yelled something..." Someone screamed "It wasn't me!" and Tori says, "Not you I know, fair enough, we won't condemn you to this. So I thought they said 'Play Pain In My Hole. Well, I've never heard of such a thing... well I HAVE actually, but I haven't written it." (laughter) "So I made it up, right? and I couldn't, I swear to God if my life depended on it I could not make up that song again, I'll put it out...some bootlegger has it already out I'm sure. But anyway, I made it up over here, and it was 'pain in my hole something something that's all you say all day. So anyway, what they were really saying was..one of the engineers came up to me and said, 'Um, Tori, you know what the guy said right?', I said 'yeah it was Pain In My Hole. He said, 'no he said "Caton's Cool".' So there you go."

PAIN IN MY HOLE  1/3

I’ve got a pain in my hole/and it could be this boy I know, or it could be some big man in a suit somewhere?/Could be that fifteen percent I got sitting at his desk counting all them royalties trying to smooth me could be that boy that I buy furniture for his sweet sweet little penis could be all them boys want to shit off me Yes, I said I said I say one thing darling men beautiful men  when you think all the chicks are taken let me say one thing you ain’t never getting my Bosey…

This hilarious and now famous incident occurred during the Dew Drop Inn Tour. Tori introduced her guitar accompaniment, Steve Caton, and a male in the audience yelled, "Caton is Cool!". Tori asked, "What?" And the audience repeated it to her again. Tori, mishearing, thought he was requesting a song, and said, "Pain in his hole? I don't remember that one." And so she then began an improvisation...

AWAY IN A MANGER

"So Christmas, not this Christmas but the last Christmas I was with my parents. Yeah, exactly. So I went to the little service, you know, and the kids were very cute. I'm not saying they weren't cute. And they do their little booger thing and they sing their song and you kind of love them--sort of. And you know, you love yours--your neice or whatever, "Isn't she cute?" And anyway, I'm sitting there and they're singing their little "down in a manger..da da ditti da.." And my father is going "sing tori ellen sing" because you were supposed to sing along. But for some reason, I just couldn't hear that song in my head. And it was like changing in my brain and he said "well, what are you hearing?" I said, "I'm hearing NA NA NA NA NA (like the Robert Plant noises from the "Icicle" stories) ..Away in a manger....away in a manger...Muhammad My Friend, said yes we both know, we both know it was a girl..."

Long Island's Modern Rock

Parody lyric to CFG .

GARY'S GIRL

I'm gonna be gary's girl, six in the morning, my hands are roaming cause i'm gary's girl /There's a little bit of heaven on 92.7 when you're gary's girl /The boy knows how to tune me in /my friends all call me gary's girl  / he's just just just so happening / you bet your life he is, you bet your life he is you bet your life, he's a peel not a bannana he's a peel not a bannana  / i think i'll be gary's girl /  we're all alone with this microphone / so i'm gary's girl he's coming around
cause i'm going down ("that's stretching it gary..." -- tori comments quickly between lines) to gary's world the boys know to tune me in my friends all call me gary's girl cause he's just so so so happening you bet your life he is you bet your life he is you bet your life he's a peel not a bannana still a peel not a bannana
but he's just what he is and he is and he is and he is...

Tori was obviously having a good time during this interview, jocking with the interviewer about him being the author to CFG and Tori came up with this parody to follow the joke.

FOR MARK

She needs to sleep like the ocean / she needs to dream / That boy down in Streatham don't know where he's about/ But I'm sure he knows one-armed sports / I need to be in this body, I need to breathe I need know, need but one, and it's gonna be here like it never was, like it never was/He's got pearls on his fingers little doe eyes making ringers ring off the phone/ Tell her you know what she's been thinking cause I need only one only one sugar plum, I said you are gonna see I'm ready to be, just with the one with the blue, blue notions emotions
