Singing. That was something Khel could still do, and he really needed some cheering up. He wasn't sure what to sing, but he knew the device they were holding must have amplified voices. When he went and took the mic, he simply said, "Surprise me." To his true surprise, he was greeted by a violin (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZvZxxE9OX0), and words on a screen nearby. The hint was obvious: he was to sing the words to the tune of the song. As soon as he started, however, he recognized the wry and twisted sense of humor the Sensorium had.

♫ When the Devil is too busy
And Death's a bit too much
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.
To the Gentlemen I'm Miss Fortune
To the Ladies I'm Sir Prize
But call me by any name
Any way it's all the same

I'm the fly in your soup
I'm the pebble in your shoe
I'm the pea beneath your bed
I'm a bump on every head
I'm the peel on which you slip
I'm a pin in every hip
I'm the thorn in your side
Makes you wriggle and writhe

And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need ♫
