My name is Eric Kleinschmidt, Sr. On facebook, I have this name as my homepage and also have a poetry page called Twisted Spike Poetry. I wrote a mini book exclusively about the doctor and companions. I posted a few at my poetry page but would like to post the unabridged complete mini book here. I didn't know what else to do with the book. I don't own anything doctor who related, just the poetry of a guy who has been a fan since tom baker was the doctor. this is my contribution, please be kind. It is called "MM W/A BB" (Mad Man With A Blue Box). Let me know what you think..................... "MM W/A BB"

Allons-Y!
(10th Intro.)
whoosh.... whoosh.... whoosh.... whoosh.
Something has happened. An explosion. A changing. Excitement and chaos linger in the air. Uncertainty. A sudden unbridled loneliness. Confusion. A brilliant flash of blinding light. A racing heartbeat. A gnawing fear. Someone new is here.
An explosion. A changing. Something has happened.
The lights flicker back on. The smoke begins to clear. A stranger now stands confused where a good friend stood so near.
Same place, different face. Who is this new stranger? What has become of my friend? Where is The Doctor?
Shutdown and reset for the 9th time. Confusion clouds this mere mortal's mind. I know I don't always understand everything, but, I wouldn't miss this ride for anything!
And he cries out: Allons-Y!! Where would you like to go? What is your fantasy? through the time vortex, beyond all imagination. Danger and excitement wait with great anticipation.
Allons-Y!! Yes, yes, a time lord's battle cry. Allons-Y!! Yes, yes, it's bigger on the inside. Allons-Y!! To the universe's very end. Allons-Y!! Come on! Lets run again!
Through the vortex. Through the vortex. Who knows where we'll end up next. Allons-Y! Allons-Y! Come along on an adventure with me....

II.
To The Edge Of The Universe And Beyond
An eloquent man holds out his hand. He says Come with me and I'll show you strange new lands. Though weary, you are thoroughly intrigued. Through the blue doors, not knowing what you're in for; you set your first foot on very distant shores. He says, I'm The Doctor and you can trust in me.
Scared to death of what you're running headlong into; but even more afraid of being left behind and missing out on the adventure of a lifetime.
An epic leap of blind faith. You're too excited to blink; you might miss out on something indescribable or something so dangerous – all in the name of helping others.
You know you wouldn't miss this for all the gold in the world. He opens the doors to a world you've never seen before.
Allons-Y! Come with me! you smile fast and taste the adrenaline on your tongue. And now, my dear, it's time to run!!
And we'll run from a shadowed thing. Run when her majesty rings. We'll run until we know just what to do. It feels like home when I'm running with you. And so we'll run till the future's past. Run away fast from the daleks' blast. We'll run when the ships attack and with our good friend, Captain Jack. Run to the place where we can hear the Ood's song. Run to the edge of the universe.... ….and beyond!
Your heart may race. At times, you may lose faith. He'll take you firm by the hand. You'll help each other understand. You might even save all of man. Isn't this adventure grand?
Happiness and tragedy rolled up with quick wit and comedy. Isn't that just like life to feel so wrong and all at once so right?
So grab tight and hold on.... Think you've gone too far and he'll take you beyond. And on and on.... And on and on.... On and on....
You'll run for the thrill of it. Till you've had your fill of it. Don't even think about exiting from this exciting ride. Not his Sarah Jane, Rose, Martha, or even the Runaway Bride.
'Cuz you'll regret it if you do. A madman in a box so blue. You'll run to see where it takes you. Run because you have to.... See the greatest things there are. Maybe see a dying star. Maybe a high speed car chase with the tardis keeping pace.
You'll run until the end of your chapter; hoping you find the excitement that you're after. Run until the end of your song. To the edge of the universe and even beyond.
There is still one thing that we must all come to understand. Life is made of hellos and goodbyes and most are not planned. The goodbyes can mean just as much if not more than the hellos. How much did you love someone? This is how we really know.
After you've saved his life as much as he ever saved yours and you hear the final closing of those old blue doors; and then you hear it go whooshing away.... you might feel as though your whole world has turned grey.
Just remember all he showed you and all he ever taught you. Cling to your memories and everything you thought true. You'll find a new adventure awaits you out there. Just like it was with him, the first steps you may be scared. Embrace this beautiful life for everything that it is. You will feel as excited again as when you were a kid.
And you'll run when you need to run, run when it's time to. Run and maybe in time – he may come to find you.
Just know that he's out there still saving all of mankind. Running against all hell and even against all time. He'll be running hard to beat the clock and running to the stars and even racing to the twin beating of his time lord hearts!
If you silence your soul and listen ever so closely.... You'll hear him echo out: Allons-Y!
Run with him, Rose, in the hopes of an adventure. Run with him, Martha and Mickey, towards a different future. Run with him, Captain Jack; run with him, Sarah Jane. Run with him, Donna Noble, you will never be the same.
You'll always be watching the stars and waiting for the sound that lets you know your friend The Doctor's come back around. Live your lives to the fullest for that adventure is quite grand.... Come take my hand.

III. These Eyes Are Old Eyes
I've been this whole universe over; from side to side and beginning to end. I've seen the horrors of all warfare. I've seen peace fail and civilizations tear. I've seen alot of good in all forms of life. I've seen the darkest side of all beings plights. I've teetered on the brink of going too far. I'm not a god, just a time lord with two big hearts.
All that I've seen I carry with me through every new twist and turn. Just like you, all that I can do is remember I still have so much to learn.
But, I feel so much older than all of my days even though my face may look so much younger. Rule number one: The Doctor lies and these eyes are much older than you realize. And I've grown much more tired than you may suspect. The centuries certainly have taken their toll. Every time I lose someone, a part of me dies. I've seen so many come and go with these old eyes.
I've seen the most beautiful people pass on and the greediest evil of hearts flourish. I know nothing in life goes our way on some days and others may save us from our own dismay. I've seen judgements handed down and sentences passed; The innocent of all time being persecuted. So, I've stood tall and fought where I have been needed. Yet, sometimes my help seems a little conceited.
All that I've known I carry with me through every stop in time. Just like you all, I have taken my falls and had to relearn how to climb.
But, I feel so much older than I may appear, even though I wear the face of a younger man. I feel so much more exhausted than you may realize and these eyes are not a young man's eyes. Every battle won and every battle lost, every time I've run and all the lives it cost; my soul weeps and – like tides – a fall and a rise. I feel a sadness for these eyes are old eyes.
Humans have just the one short life to live but don't you make the most of it? You make it count for every day that you're alive and sometimes I am envious; I feel it inside. Knowing there are more goodbyes in my future. Yet, I gladly welcome the hellos with open arms. I just feel so tired deep down sometimes. Some days are ok, some days it's hard to hide.
One day, the fates will not smile upon me and I will run no more. The lights of the tardis will fade to black and I will take a well-deserved long nap. The Ood are singing me off to sleep.... The sands of time, my soul to keep.... But, I know something that you don't know.... My time's not up yet; Allons-Y! and Lets Go!
Muster up all the strength I have remaining and run outside to where it's cold and raining. I don't care if it's freezing and I'm soaking wet. These eyes may be old eyes, but I haven't died yet!
Hello. Hello. How are you? So nice to meet you. While standing here talking sounds like loads of fun I think it's be in our best interest if we would just run!
No, faster, faster, even faster still! They're gaining on us and they always will. But we'll outsmart them every step of the way. Oh, and by the way, what was your name?

For Rose
This is for
one of the bravest souls
I have ever met.
For my friend.
For Rose.
A spirit of adventure and other so-called flights of fancy. Likened to a child's soul, every day still yields a new discovery. Trusting and so bold; daring to the point of nonstop excitement. Shelter from the cold. My dear friend, you are my enlightenment.
Risking all for others. Most will never even know. Where others surely hesitate, she would boldly go. Off into another world. Save a refuge for my girl. For nobody else understands the intricacies of my Rose.
I will stop from time to time and take a moment to reflect on all of our ups and downs and how well we two connect. I will sing a song for friendship that too quickly came to a close. I sing a song for memories, for an angel; for my Rose.
I just couldn't let on how she made my two hearts pound. I had to keep it casual. I had to keep it on the ground. I know that had it been possible, I could've loved her all her days. You see, mine extend far beyond hers. So deals the apathetic hand of fate.
So, we have ourselves a few adventures while the getting's good. We zig-zag all around the universe helping where no one else could. But, I can see the sadness in her heart and eyes when she thinks of me. She doesn't come right out and say it, though it's plain as day to see.
Risking life and limb for others, not that they would know. Without a hesitation, she says: Come on, Doctor, here we go! There's no way to hide my joy around her. It's bursting through the seams. It seems that she's the only one who knows so this humble song is for my Rose.
Still, I stop from time to time for an introspective view. How great has my life become since it's been touched by you? You took my hand and ran with me, never regretting what you chose. I sing this song for my dear friend. I sing this song for Rose.
You should see my Rose's eyes. They're alive with fire and passion! While others take their chips and walk, she would never cash in.
like a fiend, adrenaline junkie, she can't wait to see what's out the doors of my tardis spinning through time and space and landing on alien shores.
You can hear it in her voice; she loves the thrill of the chase and the mystery. Might go a million years straight ahead or duck back into history.
So courageous to the last. Take a bullet for a friend for sure. I would never let her down and I could never ask for more.
Sometimes things don't always go the way we think they should. A situation spirals out of control and we just lose our hold....
the last time I saw my Rose we were standing on a beach. It's strange how someone so near to me was so far out of reach.
A brave smile is a bad lie during a teary sad goodbye. Trying to be strong through this is too futile to try.
She said how much she loved me and we turned and walked away. Seemed to turn so cold and grey from such a warm and lovely day.
The ocean calls her name out to me as those old blue doors slowly close. I will never stop hurting for you. I will never forget my Rose. My one, my only Rose.
Silently at the control console, staring off into my memories; I think of her so sadly, yet remember her so gloriously.
Still, I feel so alone and lonely as I head in a new direction. And so you truly understand this, let me make one last correction.
My eyes are alive again with passion and with fire! From all that my Rose has taught me. Lessons that cannot expire.
I am full of her sweet wisdom. She recharged me with joy and hope. So, I sing a song of beauty and friendship for my dear Rose.
All of my best for Rose. I live my life for Rose. I sing this song for Rose. For Rose.... For Rose.... I run faster than ever before For Rose!

Didn't We Run?
One more time …. for the Daleks. One more time …. for the Cybermen. One more time …. for the Sontarians. One more time …. here we go …. basically …. RUN!!
There might be a slight situation up on deck. We might be under attack and it looks like we might wreck. There's an army boarding the ship from the port side. When I say it's a hopeless situation, remember: The Doctor lies!
We can't reach the Tardis, it's under lock and key; and all these guys want is to do away with me. But when you see me smiling, know I'm having fun. Never stop to tie your shoes when The Doctor yells: RUN!!
One more time …. for the love of all things good. One more time …. for and from Torchwood. One more time …. for The Face Of Boe. One more time …. here we go!!
One more time …. for the Ood. One more time …. for Gallifrey. One more time …. for The Master. One more time …. now, faster, faster!
So much time has come and gone by so quick. We can't pick and choose, give help where people need it. I've learned so much and the lessons all will linger. Learned how to open those blue doors with a snap of my fingers. Still, I feel a strange wind come blowing around. I hear a beautiful and yet eerie sound. The ending of a song I thought wasn't yet half through. The final bars of a epic ballad that I barely knew. Time to face the music's inevitable end. Even The Doctor dies, but rejoice, my friends. We blazed a trail 'cross the stars and left our mark. Our legacy will go on forevermore.... like a supernova set off from a tiny spark.

The End Of Time
It's time to say goodbye again. There are teardrops in my eyes again. I know one day I'll fly again, but now the time has come to say goodbye again. I want to cry again.
I want to cry with all of my fury and might: Allons-Y!! by the Tardis light. These laboured whispers hold my cry at bay. I still want to tell you all that I'll be okay. But, I am growing tired and a madman's surely on his way.
I DON'T WANT TO GO.
A distant wind comes howling 'round. The sad, sweet song: finale sung. I know something terrible has happened, but, I knew that it had to be done. How sorrowful it is to know that your final chapter is written. I'm not ready to leave this life yet. That much is a given.
Oh no, I know.... I'm not ready to go. But, life is made up of meetings and partings. And so we get on with the show.
I gave my lives and all I had to helping right a great many wrongs. Running so hard against all of time that I never even heard my own song. So, now it's time for one last run. I've got to see all of my friends just one last time before I go. Just to see them all once again.
Oh yes, I know one day we all must go. But, life is made up of greetings and sorrows and curtains fall dark on our show.
Goodbye Sarah, my sweet Sarah Jane. We ran so hard all those years ago. Seems like a lifetime went by oh so quickly. What dreams may come surely go.
Goodbye Rose, my dearest Rose. Through thickest and thin, we ran. Straight into the face of danger. You held so tight to my hand.
Goodbye Martha, my warrior girl. You fought bravely with the best of them. Take care of her, Mickey, there's a good lad. She is loved with the rest of them.
Goodbye Donna Noble and so long Wilfred. It's been the most amazing journey. You look to the stars and think of me often. Your faith in me reassures me.
Goodbye my Tardis, my longest companion. I'll miss you and the unfaltering way you didn't always take me where I wanted to go
but where I needed to be to save the day.
In a way, I know, we'll be together again, though I will wear a very different smile. We'll journey again straight across the stars and have adventures all the while. But, it's still a little bit like dying when I have to say goodbye, old friend. I'll touch you one last time and then we'll fly away together again.
Until the end of time....
We'll keep flying away again until the end of time. Set a course for adventure and when we fly until the end of time we'll know we always have a friend until the end of time.... ….and back again.
There's something else. There's something important. I'm.... I'm.... I'm.... Crashing! Ha-Ha!
Geronimo!

VII. Fish Fingers And Custard (11th Intro.)
( Amelia Pond: )
Dear Santa, thank you for the dolls and the pencils and the fish. It's Easter now, so I hope I didn't wake you. But honest, it is an emergency. There's a crack in my wall. Aunt Sharon says it's just an ordinary crack,
but....
I know it's not, because.... at night, there's voices. So please, please, could you send someone to fix it? Or a policeman?
Or....
(CRASH!!)
Ha! Hello there!
I'm The Doctor.
Wide-eyed and bushy tailed. Raggedy but no worse for wear. A bit confused and out of sorts. A bit hungry....oh, what's in there?
Can I have an apple? A big red shiny apple. No, apples are rubbish. What else can I sample? I want bacon, no, beans, no, yogurt, no, bread and butter. These cravings are driving me crazy! Don't you have anything better? What do I want....? I want.... I want.... Oh, wait! I know what I want!
There's only one thing that I'm hungry for. Fish fingers and custard. I hope you've got plenty 'cuz I'm needing more of those Fish fingers and custard.
I am The Doctor, how do you do? I need.... Fish fingers and custard. I'll show you the universe but first I gotta eat those.... Fish fingers and custard.
A crack in your wall? I'll take a look for some of those Fish fingers and custard. Crumbs on my chin and custard on my nose, I love.... Fish fingers and custard.
I'm still not a ginger but I got these curly locks and.... Fish fingers and custard. Step aside for a madman with a blue box and.... Fish fingers and custard.
La-dee-da-da, da-da-da, I need some.... Fish fingers and custard. Take on the whole universe with a hoo-ra after some.... Fish fingers and custard.
Bow ties are cool and a proper fez, too; I need.... Fish fingers and custard. So sweet to eat, a treat for me and you; feed me.... Fish fingers and custard.
This planet is protected, I'm on the job; just craving.... Fish fingers and custard. Gotta get a new outfit 'cuz I'm no slob, just raving about Fish fingers and custard.
I'm off on another adventure, wanna go? Just bring.... Fish fingers and custard. Just gotta fuel up before we hit the road on those.... Fish fingers and custard.
Got my sonic screwdriver. Got my cool suspenders on. Ready to take on whatever may come our way. Heading straight out into the dawn. I'll stop at nothing to protect you. I'd brave a desert or blinding blizzard. Just remember our just desserts. Don't leave home without the fish fingers.... ….and custard.
Hello. I'm The Doctor. Basically.... ….run.

VIII. A Girl Waited
Her name is Amy. My Amy Pond. Little Amelia Pond, all grown up. Off to see the universe with her raggedy man. This is the story of The Girl Who Waited.
Way before Rory The Roman made his epic stand; Long before catching the eye of a school mate; A scared and lonely little girl prayed for help.... Hoping that it wouldn't arrive one second too late. A bothersome crack in her wall gave her a fright. She heard voices whispering through it in bed at night. Thought she'd lose her little mind if someone didn't help. Next thing, she heard a loud crash in the flower bed. With torch in hand, she made her way out to the garden. Found a strange beat up man in a tipped over police box. Please let this be an answered prayer, she thought. Let this strange man be the protector that I sought. She felt a wave of calmness through her mind and fears; but, he said, I'll be right back, and didn't come back for twelve years.
Oh, the sad long wait and the years of therapy. Waiting for her raggedy man seemed like an eternity. Never forgot his face or somewhat quirky nature. Waiting hopefully for a much more pleasant future. All a childhood gone, now a young woman on her own. Gave up on her make-believe friend and called that scary house her home.
Then, one day it happened. Her raggedy man came back. Wanted to have a look at that pan-dimensional crack. He said, hello, I'm The Doctor! now, grown, she thought he was a fox. He said, Always remember.... I am a madman with a blue box.
Off they go on adventures, Oh, you should see them run! The Girl Who Waited and The Doctor looking so young!
Peril and heart-pounding excitement wait at every turn. Time to seek the thrill of a lifetime that she waited so long to earn. Never knowing where they'll end up and now Rory's along for the ride. Time to face your greatest fears and to take them all in stride!
Come on! Lets ride! Another runaway bride! Can't have that twice! Oh, I bet the wedding will be so nice!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. Oh, you two.... I hope the Tardis will do. I know the party's not through; but, you crazy kids, there's so much to do!
Amy Pond. The Girl Who Waited is gone. Off to see the cosmos with the two men who she loves the most.
She left her old life behind. What new worlds are theirs to find. Little Amelia Pond has gone and left this little world. So, don't wait up for her! No, don't wait for her! Don't bother leaving a light on.... ….for Amy Pond!

I only borrowed her....
Ripping a trail straight across the stars. You can't stop me no matter who you are. If you threaten this little planet called Earth, I might just make you regret your birth. Snappy suspenders and a proper fez. Whoosh, whoosh, my sweet blue lady says. Even the Pandorica couldn't hold me down. Madman with a Blue Box coming 'round!
Lets have a spot of fun in the sun. Okay....and now it's time to run!
Madman with a Blue Box – coming through! Madman with a Blue Box – how do you do? Madman with a Blue Box – that's The Doctor to you! Madman on the loose....and feeling bloody blue!
No one....No one dies today!!
If there are monsters, just wish for help. My old blue girl will do the rest. Get me to your flat quick, in the nick of time. Have a spot of tea with something alien in design. No one dies today, that's my decree. If you wanna make it, just stick with me. Modern day super hero, gonna save the day. Madman with a Blue Box is on the way!
Almost nothing my sonic screwdriver can't fix.... ….in one heck of a jiff!
Madman with a Blue Box – coming through! Madman with a Blue Box – how do you do? Madman with a Blue Box – just The Doctor will do. Madman on the loose – a bad boy in blue!
Gonna see a planet stealer. Gonna meet a Tardis eater. Fought the infamous Dalek leader. Victory was never sweeter. Rory the Roman and Amy Pond gonna take a ride along and help me fix a few wrongs with the aid of my girl, River Song!
With a little luck and all of my friends and vast knowledge humans can't comprehend, we'll make it through this situation alive. Maybe this world can thrive and not just survive. After nine hundred-something years, I'm just about at the end of my fears. I know the silence will yet come to call when the eleventh has his greatest fall.
An astronaut is coming outta the lake with a life to take.... ….but make no mistake....
Madman with a Blue Box – will stand true! Madman with a Blue box – is mortal, too! Madman with a Blue Box – will stand again. Madman with a Blue Box – and all of his friends.
Madman with a Blue Box – coming through. Madman with a Blue Box – brave and true. Madman with a Blue Box – slipped a time or two; but, this madman knows he knows nothing without all of you!

Hello, Sweetie
There's the writing on the wall. Been there since time first began. In a language no one could ever read until now. It's never been more clear to me.... Hello Sweetie.
We've come a long way since fish fingers and custard. Though it is a bit odd having this love affair run backwards. Still, everytime I see her, my twin hearts go bang, bang! When she's near me, it's on her every word that I hang. Sometimes frustrating, but, I do love that Melody. She always has my full attention when she says, Hello Sweetie!
Oh, here we go again on another run. No time to stop, we're having too much fun! One day we'll wed and one day I'll be dead; but for we're gonna run like chickens without our heads!
Been a little while since we first met in the library. The forest of the dead. Ooo, girl, now that was scary! First and last meetings all rolled up into one. Course, I was a different man then and not quite so young. She stepped through the door beautiful and eager to greet me. Opened up her little blue book and said, Hello Sweetie!
Demons will run when a good man goes to war! The Doctor will stand tall again to tally the score. Same as she thirlls me, she just might kill me! Ah, but that's the kind of passion and hope that fills me!
Where've we been? What've we done? In your little blue book, what page are we on? Have we been here? Have we gone there? Like I said, Next stop....Everywhere!!
Did we do the angels yet? The Pandorica? No? Spoilers, my dear, I don't want to know. I'm a madman, old girl, the original outlaw. But, now I find that Rory and Amy are my new in-laws!
Oh, and there's much more adventure to go! Nothing can stop a Time Lord in a one man show! Running harder and faster than I ever had to before! But, I still take a moment to pause to catch my breath when she walks through the door.... and says Hello Sweetie! It's time to run some more!

Let Somebody Else Try First
Hello, Stonehenge! Who takes the Pandorica, takes the universe. But, bad news, everyone.... Cos guess who?! Ha! Listen, you lot, you're all whizzing about, it's really very distracting. Could you all just stay still a minute? Because I....am....talking! The question of the hour is, who's got the Pandorica? Answer – I do. Next question, who's coming to take it from me? Come on! Look at me, no plan, no backup, no weapons worth a damn. Oh, and something else, I don't have anything....to....lose! So if you're sitting up there in your silly little spaceship, with all your silly little guns, and you've got any plans on taking the Pandorica tonight, just remember who's standing in your way. Remember every black day I ever stopped you. And then.... And then.... do the smart thing. Let somebody else try first.
I am the Doctor, do yourself a favor. Look me up. I've got a genuinely sweet nature. Until you try to use my loved ones to get to me. Then you unleash a rather angry kind of beast. I'll call on every friend I have in the universe. Past, present and future and you'll see me at my worst. I stand and fight for what's right and you will lose. Do you really want to walk this path? It's for you to choose.
Demons run when a good man goes to war! The fur on my neck is raised and the leash is torn! Cross the line and you can expect the worst! Do the smart thing and let somebody else try first!
That's sound advice. Trust me, I'm the Doctor. Not one to be trifled with. Not like any other. A gallifreyan temper when I'm backed into a corner. A mind that can out-think you any day on your calendar. So, be not hastey when deciding to come after Earth. She is protected well by me, respected first! I'll give my blood and my lives in her service and defense. She can count on me always while you all play the fence.
Demons run when a good man goes to war! Don't count your victories till we tally final scores! Vast oceans of knowledge, yet you die of thirst! So, do the smart thing and let somebody else try first!
No backup! No plan! No weapons worth a damn! Look at you all whizzing around! Why must you come bringing trouble down?!
Universe not big enough? Is that it? Gotta get yourself another bloody war fix?
Well, I'm not having it! I'll protect them all to the end! With my companions, we shall stand tall and defend.
Don't think twice, don't you dare hesitate! Don't be late to make your next move, I'll wait! Feeling froggy, then jump head first into your fate! You underestimate.... blind with hate.... I'll count you out at the gate! So, remember every black day....
Demons run when a good man goes to war! The fur on my neck is raised and the leash is torn! Cross the line and you'd better be prepared for the worst! So, do the smart thing....don't go first!
Demons run when a good man goes to war! Don't count your victories till we tally the final score! Vast oceans of knowledge, yet you will die of thirst! Do the smart thing! Do the smart thing.... and let somebody else try first!

A Tardis Love Affair
On a planet called Uncle, I met her; but, she seemed like she knew me for so long. Such a strange mad bitey lady. I had to find out more about her. She said, I go whoosh whoosh and I love it when you call me 'old girl'. It was like running into an old old friend that you never ever met before.
I stole you and you stole me. What sweeter company? She's trying so hard to find the words to say to me. She seemed happy, yet sad; tortured, but still glad. What is it you were trying to say to me?
She likes it when I talk to her though she cannot respond to me. She's been dying to tell me that for nearly a millenium. My Doctor, She said to me, It's only you and I, I know. The great big word that I've been trying to find is hello.
I stole you and you stole me. What better kind of destiny? It's so very nice to finally meet you. Time was short and she had to go, but, now I know I'll always know just how much like a lady I should treat you.
We'll steal away with each other, my dearest and oldest companion. You always take me where I am needed most and I will be your brave and noble champion. With my hands upon your console, Old Girl, come on lets go for a spin, just us two. And it doesn't matter where we end up as long as it's we, me and you.
I'll steal a kiss before you have to go though I know you'll always be with me. Time And Relative Dimensions In my heart. Old Girl, you'll always be sexy.

The Question That Must Never Be Answered
All of the universe in an uproar. The bad guys are ganging up on me. Won't they just take one single day off? Won't they ever let good people be? I am their final defender. All of my people were corrupted. I'm in great need of a holiday. A simple case of evil interrupted.
Tardis blue, take me away from here. Far away from the evils that men do. Let silence fall on the question that must never be
answered....
Dr. Who?
So many conspire to make me fall. Well, I've got my friends list too. We'll go to war if you hurt my loved ones. I don't want to but I'll do what I must do. Just have to keep myself in check. I don't want 'Doctor' to translate to 'Warrior'. My hearts are so big and passionate, with many rooms and infinite corridors.
Just like my Tardis blue, there's room for you. I can feel the sting of fate coming true. Hold your position and never answer what is asked
of you....
Dr. Who?
Who knew how things would go? Who knew what you couldn't know? Who knew we'd wind up here? Who knows my greatest fears? Who knew I've been loved all along? Who knew? My girl, River Song! Who knew the silence would fall? Who knew I'd be back to tell you all?
Who are you?, They all ask of me. Who are you? Anonymous strategy. Who are you? The question that must never be answered.... Dr. Who?
Live with the knowledge that your unknowledgeable. Run and tell the others that I am unbreakable. If you let it, it will cloud your mind black as night. The question that's hidden in plain sight. The rest may be all lies but this one thing rings true.... the question must never be answered.... Dr. Who? Dr. Who? Dr....Who?

River's Song
Stronger than a solid oak of a hundred years of age. More beautiful than any sunset, a song of passion's rage. Stranger things have happened in my eleven lifetimes for sure. But, never with such conviction, with such love undying and pure. She gave her life for me in one epic act of true love. I sing a song for her and all the things we've not yet done.
A love affair going in two directions, my future is her past. The things she'll do to save me are far more than I could ever ask. I'll answer any time she calls me, her knight in shining blue. She plays the game, she knows my name, and River, I love you! She is my Achille's heel for, I'll trust her to the end. My love, my life, my darling wife, my closest dear old friend.
She drinks in the quiet desperation of wanting time to stand still long enough for her and I to both catch our breaths until it's time to run again and then, my girl, we'll run together. River, if I only could I would run with you forever.
A legendary love affair, both tragic and passionate. We can't tell the heart a thing. What hearts want, they will get. But, for all the time we have together I'll run whenever she calls me. Her knight in shining blue armor until whatever fate befalls me. Through the vortex of all time to where she needs me most.... River, sweetie, I love you. You set my hearts afloat.
She spends most of her days in prison for a crime she never did commit. Our nights we spend together. She drives me mad, though I'll gladly admit: she changed this old man's life around. Truly and deeply a love to die for. She's got me tight 'round her little finger. River, thee I adore. Everytime she calls, my ears perk up. There are no lengths that I won't go to. To save you from oblivion, there's no hell that I won't go through.
She knows things about me I didn't even know and how to make my Tardis giddyup and go! That little blue book she carries with her holds the secrets and answers to my future. The things she says and how she acts make me smile like a juvenile and react. When things aren't going well and I feel a bit low, she lifts me up higher than I knew I could go. She holds me up higher than Kilaminjaro until I scream from the top of my lungs: Geronimo!!!!
Jumping head first into this love with someone I didn't even know I could trust. Now, I know, there's no turning back. Full speed ahead, a twin heart attack. She has my attention completely whenever she says: Hello Sweetie! Melody Pond, the daughter who waited. She killed me once long before we dated. Skip ahead a bit and here we find now River Song is so well-defined. I run to her like gravity pulling me toward my inevitable destiny.
I know there's an end in sight, but lets not think about that tonight. Lets save some people and have a good run and maybe sneak in a spot of good fun. Amy and Rory can be witnesses and we'll show them what fitness is as we run together through all space and time. River, I love you! Please always be mine!

Where were you when the tenth Dr. fell? Or the ninth or the first? Can you even tell? Who is your favorite? Who is next in line? Is The good Doctor really running out of time?
Good ol' K9 and sweet Sarah Jane. One more run with The Dr. for old time's sake. We miss you Rose, Mickey, Martha and all; like we'll miss Amy, Rory and River when the 11th falls.
I wish it was me traveling the farthest Going for a little spin in the Tardis With The Dr. up against an army of Daleks or the Cybermen programmed to be evil and heartless. I wanna fly with the best of them. Ride the sky just like the rest of them. Give this guy the ultimate test of men. Not a dry eye as I sing my testament.
Join in …. Join in the parade. Bring your bowtie and fez to the masquerade. Snack on jelly babies, fish fingers and custard. Time to run, no matter what you just heard. Who will answer the call? Whovians!! All for one and one for all!!
This is the parade of The Whovians!!
Call us what you like: nerds, geeks and dweebs. Tailor-made uniforms of plaid and tweed. We come from beyond your imaginations. Stronger unified than the Federation.
Whovians, be proud! Whovians, stand tall! Whovians are out there among you all! Can't tell us apart from anyone else. And those are action figures, not dolls, on our shelves!
We all wish we were the companion. Right hand to our main champion. The one he thinks of as an anchor. The one to help him with his anger. Fly away with my mate to different planets. Although we may not have the home advantage, we will help those in need of assistance. We will always lead the new resistance.
Join in …. Join in the parade. Bring your sonic screwdriver to the masquerade. Allons-Y and off we go on another run! Hear us, Fear us, world, we are The Whovians! Who will answer the call? Whovians!! All for one and one for all!!
Here comes the parade of The Whovians!!
This is the parade of The Whovians! Old friends leave off where the new begin. Suspenders, trench coats, and white crew socks. Just another madman with a blue box.
Teary-eyed to see a good companion say goodbye. I cannot tell a lie.... Whovians are all in....we fall in....it's do or die!!
This is the parade of The Whovians! The BBC started a worldwide phenomenon! It's a cage match between us geeks and you hooligans! Worldwide unite – the parade of The Whovians!!
So, are you ok, then? Cos this place, sometimes it can make people feel a bit.... you know....
I'm fine. It's just....there's a whole world in here, just like you said. It's all true. I thought.... Well, I started to think that maybe you were just a madman with a box.
Amy Pond, there's one thing you'd better understand, cos one day your life may depend on it. I am definitely a madman with a box.

Battle Hymn Of The Doctor
On through the ages, I march to the beat of a very different drummer swiftly moving my feet. I stay where others flee, rush in where others run. I know how to sacrifice all and I know how to have fun. When it's time to work, my concentration never to be broken. When my focus is upon you, hope you know which side you've chosen. Even my own people knew that I was not a coward. On and on through all time, pushing ever forward.
On through generations, I'm a silent defender. But, I've been outspoken lately, on a mad tear, a saving bender. Getting even louder lately, letting my foes all know I'm here. If it be my saving grace, then let my title strike such fear. I use my talents to help others, a scientist to the very end. A warrior, a madman, a mentor, and hopefully a good friend. Never been one to let the needy be neglected. I am The Doctor and this planet is protected!!
I am The Doctor! Vengeance of the downtrodden! My style: unorthodox! My methods: quite uncommon! I am The Doctor! Hear me roar! On into battle like so many times before!
On through the eons, we travel at full speed. Always end up where someone is in great need of my special talents, so I always lend a hand. Sometimes I feel like a general in forward command. More than I can remember, my companions save me. Without them, a foe or two would have enslaved me or cut my lives short by The Master's design. The amazing people I travel with become my saving life lines.
I am The Doctor! The Ood sing my sad tune. Here to save the day and not a second too soon. I am the Doctor! Look me up, see what I've done! Every wicked thing you're after, all to be undone!
I've given my life for my friends a couple of times. What would a human life mean to me if I didn't sacrifice mine? This Doctor is getting older, this warrior gets tired. Still, I fight for what I cherish: freedom and all life's fire. Get to the controls, we've got some work to do. Get to the console, so good folks can triumph, too. A madman at the helm of a mighty blue box. This fight will be legendary, one to stop all clocks!
I am The Doctor! Have you heard the name before? Let somebody else try first! I'll see you to the door! I am The Doctor! No Pandorica can hold me! I've seen the error of my ways, is what you should have told me!
On into battle once more, my dear friends. It's been an honor, if this be our final ends. Be it a battle that saves our very souls or one to stop a villain who has taken all control.
They march into battle with me and I will stand true. Never to desert or abandon any one of you. Thank you for companionship in my every hour of need. I've come here to help others when I'm really the one in need. A madman at the reigns of his mighty blue steed. I have followed destiny, but now, it's time for me to lead!

Next Stop....Everywhere!
Allons-Y! Come on! Here we go! Or to put it another way....Geronimo!!
To the edge of the universe and beyond! Going further out then we have ever gone!
These eyes are old eyes but haven't they seen some wonderous places and faces inbetween!
For Rose, I remain strong and even moreso, I'll never stop doing what I do for those!
Didn't we run, my friends? We'll do it again! Times may get dark, but this is not the end!
When the end of time comes rearing it's ugly head, we'll spin it all back and we can do it again!
It's a long time since fish fingers and custard! The greatest thing when nothing looks good in the cupboard!
A girl waited for years and who did she find? An unusual Doctor running hard against time!
A madman with a blue box gonna take her on a trip! Lecturing and questioning with hand on her hip!
Then, River said, Hello Sweetie, and changed my life! Now she knows my name and now she is my wife!
Then came the pandorica, that was the worst! I gave them all sound advice, Let somebody else try first!
I had a Tardis love affair when I met the old girl! She whispered Hello and then we went for a whirl!
The question that must never be answered hidden in plain view.... Dr. Who? Dr. Who? Dr. Who!?!?
An epic ballad I will sing of my dearest all my life long! The one who set me free, I sing to thee my River's song!
Can't forget The Whovians, they have such faith in me! Lets take a Tardis ride across the farthest galaxy!
Sing loud the battle hymn of The Doctor, sing with all your might! Help us win this unwinable war, sing it loud tonight!
And finally we come to it, the loudest cry of all.... The final thing you'll hear before the eleventh has his fall.... The sweetest notes that carry far upon the warmest air.... Come on, everybody! Next stop....Everywhere!!!
Finally, a calm amongst the storms. We've taken on the evils of this universe by force. Just a quick breather, a momentary little pause. Just a slight detour from the never ending cause. A quick vacation, a holiday, and I think it's well-deserved. Hugely overdue, but I believe definitely earned. Take one last deep breath before the plunge and don't you dare be scared! Back into the heart-pounding action!! Next Stop....Everywhere!!!!
