The fifth track of Dr Horrible's Sing-Along Blog's Commentary: The Musical, It's All About The Art. Main Part by Felicia Day.
Lyrics:
Felicia: When I first meet Hammer,
I stumble and stammer,
'Cause that's what it says to do in the script.
But whenever I practice
That was just an act,
This is all so real,
He's so well-equipped!
Falling into Nathan's eyes is easy,
I don't even realize he's cheezy,
'Cause, jeez, he's so great--
Wait!
But it's not about Nate,
Gotta concentrate,
'Cause I'm looking for internal truth
And not a date.
No, it's not about Nate,
'Cause it's all about the art.
Perfect, mysterious,
Comes from above.
Magic is a magic thing,
And lovely as love.
A gift from Olympus,
Whose sent me a muse and shoes (?)
If I walk with a twitch
In the scene in the kitchen
First day jitters aren't to blame!
'Cos all Penny feels
Are these 9-inch heels
Which are gonna make me fall and die
And aren't in frame.
But my death scene pumps are really dreamy...
Right when Billy dumps my corpse
It's steamy,
To see me--
Oh, wait. (OhI'msorryIlostmytrainofhoughtI'mbeingsuchabimbo!)
It's not about shoes,
Even if they're sweet,
They should focus on the tragedy,
And not my feet.
No, it's not about shoes,
And it's all about the art.
Memory, Method, primal and deep,
All Stanislavsky, Strasberg and Streep,
"Truth, Mr. Lipton, that's how you build 'The Guild'..."
But it's not about The Guild
I'd be killed if I shilled for The Guild
On somebody else's time
Then again, I sort of was killed.

Joss: (Felicia!)
Felicia: (Catch Guild Fever!)
My tortured actor's process -
Stand here and do what Joss says -
Remember that it's not about...
The weird beard on Otto,
The beer & Clamato,
The hair and the cheese
on the Guild Second Season,
And "Brand New Day"- Neil,
The intro's unreal
A horse - not-too-shabby -
Now steady's all crabby,
The soldier boy extra,
Good times, no? I'll text ya-
The Red Bull Neil's drinking,
I'm dead and I'm blinking,
And Joss is ungluing,
When I'm mention pooing,
Which I'm always doing-
I mean, mentioning pooing--
I mean --ART
Art...
Art...
Art's really easy...
