It...actually kind of works...

01. put your music player on shuffle
02. the first lines of twenty songs = a poem
03. the first line of the twenty-first song is the title.

"Been Working So Hard"

You talk tough to me
Is it the wind?
Some days aren't yours at all
Can you feel it?
I'm watching sis go pitter pat

No more questions
I've paid my dues
In the still of the night
I've got a girl and Ruby is her name
No one mourns the wicked

What have we done?
There are giants in the sky
If you're feeling lost in the darkness
I've got a handful of songs to sing you
This was the last chance I would give

This is hard to say
Go to sleep
So many nights I have stood in the moonlight
Forgive, sounds good
We have all the time in the world

Is that some Scarlet Pimpernel I spy?

Yes, it is. It's one of my favourite musicals. It's how I got into The Dresden Files, actually, I recognized Terrence Mann on the commercials. :D
