"Old Souls" by "Winslow Leach" (lyrics actually by Paul Williams); Jessica Harper (Phoenix), performing the song in the film, at Phantompalooza2 - shorter clip of the Phantompalooza, but better quality

Our love is an old love, baby. It's older than all our years. I have seen in strange young eyes Familiar tears.

Our paths have crossed and parted, This love affair was started Long, long ago. This love survives the ages In its story lives are pages Fill them up, may ours turn slow.

We're old souls in a new life baby. They gave us a new life To live and learn.

Can't you feel the vibes in your own house, man? Bad, sport, real bad. The karma's so thick in here, you need an aqualung to breathe.

I know what it is.

Oh, you do, huh?

Yeah. Do you wanna know what it is?

Why don't you tell me what it is?

Speed, that what it is.

Speed?

What do you know about it? You just pass the stuff out, I take it. I know drug real from real real.

Listen, Philbin, there really is a phantom. He was just in my shower. He threatened my life. He said his music was just for Phoenix. Only she can sing it. Anyone who else who tries, dies.

What the hell are you talking about?

Look, Philbin, I am a professional. I have been in this business a long time. Now if I don't want to do a show, it's not because I got stage fright. It's because some creature from beyond doesn't want me to do the show. Now gangway.

Man, you better get yourself a castrato for this, 'cause it's a little out of my range.

Something bothering you, Beef?

Swan, this was scored for a chick. I'm not doing it in drag.

You can sing it better than any bitch.

You don't know how right you are, Goliath.
