"I Feel Fantastic" by Jonathan Coulton, performed in sign language by Stephen Torrence. This one is December Song Week #6 and it goes out to all my pill junkie homies. Lyrics/gloss below. Enjoy!

I get up early when the sleeping pill wakes me

MORNING PILL HIT, I AWAKE

I take a wake up pill and fill with energy

ENERGY PILL-TAKE, AWAKE!

I power on hard and I check my messages

COMPUTER TURN-ON, MESSAGE LOOK-FOR

But I dont have any messages

BUT NOT HAVE MESSAGE

I take a driving pill and head to my car

DRIVE PILL-TAKE, CAR GET-IN

I drive around a bit cuz work isnt very far

[CAR CIRCLING] WORK [RIGHT-THERE]

I call my phone and I check my messages

MY PHONE, MESSAGE WAIT-FOR

But I dont have any messages

BUT NOT HAVE MESSAGE

All I know is driving on drugs feels better when theyre prescription

I KNOW DRIVING WITH PRESCRIPTION DRUG BETTER

All I know is the world looks beautiful, the world looks so damn beautiful

I KNOW WORLD BEAUTIFUL, WORLD REALLY BEAUTIFUL

And I feel fantastic

I FEEL FANTASTIC

And I never felt as good as how I do right now

BEFORE NEVER FELT-LIKE NOW

Except for maybe when I think of how I felt that day

BUT PONDER, MAYBE ONE-DAY PAST

When I felt the way that I do right now, right now, right now.

I FEEL [SAME-THEN-AND-NOW], NOW++

[repeats]

Work is anything but quiet these days

RECENTLY WORK BUSY

I try to medicate my concentration haze

CANT FOCUS, CONFUSION, PILL-TAKE++

I can feel the day unfold in front of me

PAPER [PILING UP], PUSH ASIDE

So I take the stairs and hit the gym

STAIRS [ASCEND] WORK OUT

The phone is ringing when I get to my desk

FINISH, RETURN, MY PHONE [RINGING]

What was a stingings now a sharp pain in my chest

[CHEST STING] BECOME PAIN!

So I take a Calminex and just chill

PAIN PILL-TAKE, RELAX

And then its time for lunch again

FINISH, FOOD TIME

All I know is work is easy when you dont stress out about deadlines

I KNOW WORK EASY IF [PAPER PILE] IGNORE

All I know is I take my medicine I always take my medicine

I KNOW PILL-TAKE ALWAYS PILL-TAKE++

[chorus]

Sometimes Id like to slow things down

SOMETIME I WANT LIVE SLOW

Enjoy the moment

NOW ENJOY

But when I look the moments gone

BUT LOOK, NOW [MOVE AWAY, GONE]

Work is over but I cant stay to work late

WORK FINISH, BUT CANT STAY

Got to leave and get ready for my second date

MUST PREPARE FOR MY 2ND DATE

With a pretty girl that I met at the pharmacy

WITH GIRL PRETTY, PHARMACY

Right in the prescription line

LINE MEET-HER-THERE

I take a pill for my social anxiety

RELATIONSHIP ANXIOUS PILL-TAKE

I get a table and a nice bottle of Chablis

TABLE ARRANGE, WINE BOTTLE [SET-UP]

Now its getting late and theres still no sign of her

[HOURS PASS] LOOK-FOR-HER, NOTHING

I have another glass of wine

WINE POUR, DRINK

All I know is the wine lasts longer when you dont gotta share it with someone

I KNOW MORE WINE IF NOT [POUR-FOR-TWO]

All I know is my steak tastes better when I take my steak tastes better pill

I KNOW STEAK TASTE-BETTER IF I STEAK PILL-TAKE

[chorus]
