[I am] performing in a superior fashion in comparison to other students in this minor assemblage at a major technical university.
- have many abilities that stem from knowledge and practice, [and] I have particular capabilities in regard to games involving pencils, paper, and adventure.
A person of great renown for his capabilities in the concepts regarding - and application of - optical illusion is the person I believe to be preeminent in introducing and mediating stage events.
I do not desire your large volumes of intoxicating liquids; rather, I would more desire a libation named perhaps for its evocation of both feudalism and drab color.
The metallic portions of the toroidal contrivances in the undercarriage of my horseless carriage do not at any time have angular momentum in the opposite direction from the whole of said devices; in fact, if you endeavor to discover, it will become clear to you that they do not have any momentum at all [separate from the whole].
The entire gross of my diminutive models of vim are small fruits generally regarded to be bloody in color and sweet to the taste.
A disabled theoretical scientist can be found in the place where I often stop to peruse my volumes of written material.
It would be pleasurable to me to ambulate in a circular motion with the members of organized crime units.
However, to date, said members clearly cogitate upon the concept that I am of a milky hue and compare well to small sugared candies.
[They] cogitate that I am clearly beyond their guidelines regarding my milky hue and likeness to sugared candies.

Not mine, but I can’t imagine how the thread has gone without it (and it’s nearly in perfect meter with the original!):
Scintillate, scintillate, globule vivific,
Fain would I fathom thy nature specific.
Loftily poised in ether capacious,
Faintly resembling a gem carbonaceous,
Scintillate, scintillate, globule vivific,
Fain would I fathom thy nature specific.

Very good. 
I am and will eternally persist in being a member of the highest echelon of my community’s social hierarchy. Indeed, it is said that the festivities put on by yours truly are so well-renowned as to be divinely inspired. The halls I have designated for these specific festivities invariably meet their capacity with regard to the density of human individuals occupying those halls at the given time of these events. Thus it can be concluded that not even on one single occasion has any of my festivities been of anything but the largest proportions, and this is corroborated by the periodicals which circulate among my social group.
I host social events of the largest magnitude and most lascivious nature. Many others in my acquaintance have hosted events of a similar calibre but none of such grand stature as ours.
(Probably difficult):
It is clear that though you may have acquaintances aplenty, your closer relationships are limited to such an extent that of this subgroup I am the only member.
You have many relationships of mutual affection and personal regard.
However I am personally one who gives you assistance and support while being incandescent.
Regardless I am not on good terms with you.
Ergo sum.

Only because I love this song so much:
They Might Be Giants - Birdhouse In Your Soul
Though I’m a late-comer to the thread, I agree that these are often made much harder due to the fact that I’m not familiar with the song being quoted. I’ve gotten one or two that were songs I didn’t know well but had heard, but the majority of those I missed. On the other hand, I got about half of the ones I did know (and did a head slap on the other half when I found out!).
I also found out that I’m nowhere near as culturally aware as I had thought I was. The ones I didn’t know outnumbered the ones I did by a huge margin.
This is the most fun I’ve had in an online thread in ages. Thanks to everyone for the posts!

a. The singer is in the process of leaving port, laying out a vector for the waters off St. Croix, feeling a need for emancipation, in order to encounter his future. On his vessel, he considers himself master, inviting the hearer to join him. He conceives that diligent examination of littorals will lead to the discovery of the next day, and calls on God to witness his pledge of intent to persevere. The singer claims an apparition of the Heavenly Host, which engaged in choral exhortation to join them and the singer in onward navigation, repeating this antiphon some 34 times in all.
b. I became disoriented owing to the multitude of thoroughfares. My life goal was jogging and I was jogging to survive, with total financial irresponsibility. Achieving a velocity of 480 MPH during a substantial fraction of a year, violating every flexible regulation, I commenced to find myself on an oft-repeated quest for accommodations.
c. An adolescent, I briefly share an age with Lance Kirwin’s character, enggd in reverie and enumerating potential routes to your location. Again briefly a year past my majority, I take delight in the tactile sensations of her as, engged in mutual combustion, we complete the Areological expedition.

b. Against the Wind-- Bob Seger
It is pointless to speculate as to wherefore this is happening if you haven’t ascertained the answer prior to this point. I repeat, It is pointless to cogitate as to wherefore this is happening because in the final analysis it is pointless. At the start of the day at the very beginning of sunrise, gaze through the hole in your wall designed to let light in and my absence will be made plain. You yourself are the cause of my departure, but do not give it a second contemplation, there is nothing wrong.
I prefer my women Callipygean, I cannot tell a falsehood.
Disparate gentlemen are unable to renounce the fact
that at the times during which a female enters the room,
with a slender midsection, and a bulbous protrusion interfering with
your field of vision,
your penis becomes erect, and you want to remove it from your trousers,
for the reason that you are aware that her posterior is filling out
her dungarees quite nicely. I am drawn in and I cannot take my eyes
off of her.
Forsooth, infant, I would like to have sexual intercourse with you,
and perhaps immortalize that action in still photography.
My companions attempted to dissuade me from these actions,
Nonetheless, your posterior has caused me to become quite aroused.
Oh, woman who possesses a backside of unwrinkled flesh,
would you like to take a ride in my Mercedes?
Please take advantage of me, take advantage of me,
because you are not the typical woman who attempts to bed a rock or rap star.
I have seen those type of women promenading,
To the devil with small tokens of affection!
That would be the classic “Baby Got Back”.

A. However, I entreat of you not to inform my pulmonary unit, my prone-to-pain and susceptible-to-fracturing pulmonary unit,
I do not believe he would be able to comprehend
and if you do elect to inform my cardiovascular pump, my pain-ridden and faulty cardiovascular pump,
he could very well explode and thereby render the singer of this song into a corpse.
B. Continue along the course you have chosen, my obstinate male offspring,
The cessation of war will occur at the conclusion of your journey,
Place your exhausted cranium in a manner to allow relaxation,
Cease weeping.
Don’t tell my heart, my achy-breaky heart, I just don’t think he’d understand.
And if you tell my heart, my achy-breaky heart, he might blow up and kill this man.
