This, too, amuses

Been listening to many different kinds of music of late, though Postmodern Jukebox is definitely a large part of that at present. I've been listening to numerous versions of Paramour's Still Into You, though the original is still the best. Also been playing I Choose You by Sara Bareilles a goodly number. And then there's Jolene... Ever since I read that idea from imgur about a version of the song with increasingly horrifying descriptions of some sort of eldritch horror, every time I hear the song the rhythm gets in my head and I want to make verses. Perhaps I'll make up a few now and it will sate the need for now.

He screams about you in his sleep
of burning skies and fathoms deep
and there's nothing I can do for him
Jolene

Your ashen skin and sunken eyes
your tentacles that terrorize
I wish you'd stop this nightmare now
Jolene

Jo'lene, Joh'leeen, Joelein, Jo'lee'n
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man

With rapid wings and tendril'd hair
and dark encroaching everywhere
I wish I knew just what you were
Jolene
