This one remained too intact for my likes. I believe I put it through an English\>German\>French\>English\>Italian\>English pace. Unfortuately, the word that gives it away stayed unbutchered no matter what I did. So it’s been spoilered. You transport the son, on mine wayward are you here a peace, if you are made. Your inert head does not put other, in order to arrest it, you with gridano. Also, just for fun: I know this song called “Ode to Crayola.” It’s basically a goofy little ditty listing off a bunch of of Crayola crayon color names and proclaiming one’s love for them. But due to the fantastically odd names crayons have, I thought it’d make for some sublime Babelfishing. Hoo boy: > [@](#): > > Orange infuriates, lemon of the laser, > And green of the forest. It is this what I said. > Wild, blue water melon of the midnight, Atomic Mandarin! > Radical, red blue of the sky, and chestnut small of oxalis also, and so true gold he rougeoie! > I have Crimson taste of Razzmatazz, and Pizazz, and brightness Rose de Razzle! > Each love of the color an old friend. Magenta the hot one is aubaine. > > I took the excursion from the factory. > It really opened the door, and immediately transfixed. > I know that they are pieces of wax, but of me it cannot never become loose Without my box of 96. > Crayola. Very of Crayola what I knows. > Colors, delicious, making a rainbow. Crayola, I want to you thus. > > I have taste of them as much. Each shade, each one splendid tonality. > It is not no surprise > that it very assures to that I say and I will rise in the dawn > Was wrapping above, and to the color in my skin. > The colors of the life and the love of the sky arrive, > Release to me of my sin. > It would take them like a nightgown, > But they obtain a little taken downwards. > > I took the excursion from factory. > It really opened the door, and immediately transfixed. > I know that they are pieces of the wax, > Only broad I never to become loose > Without my box of 96. > > Of Violette Lives I want to You. I want to you Blue Of Eggs Of the Mir it. > Green Póngase I want to you of Screamin’, and the Majesty of the crimson one of the mountain also. > Master really to my babies. Master really my babies. > I have taste of my pencils and I have taste of the way that proves. > > Crayola. Very of Crayola what I know. > Colors, delicious, making a rainbow. > Crayola, I want to you thus. For those interested, [the original.](http://www.lemondemon.com/lemondemon/Ode%20to%20Crayola.mp3) I hold no responsibilities if your musical sensibilities are offended by this song. ---

Any hints, **Malacandra**? It definitely sounds familiar, but at the same time… not. A relative decade, maybe? 😛 (Yes, yes, I know, not helping. I am one of those people who knows maybe 50 song titles off the top of her head, but thousands of "That one song that goes like…"s.)
