The second installment of Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog debuted yesterday and it seems that finally something has gone right this time for the release. Make no mistake–both of the acts themselves so far have been excellent. Nathan Fillion has played the part of the phony-hero Captain Hammer to perfection, Felicia Day is in top form as the heroine Penny, and Neil Patrick Harris has been hilarious as usual as the poor Dr. Horrible, who can’t seem to impress the Evil League of Evil, nor get Penny to notice him as more than a laundry buddy. We also find out a few humorous facts, such as what the consequences are of broadcasting your secret evil plans on your blog, and what part of the good Captain’s body the name “Hammer” refers to (hint: it’s not his arms).
The Dr. Horrible website has had less luck so far, first being released in a broken form when the trailer leaked a day early, and then crashing when the first act came out on July 15th. This time around, the episode has been released seamlessly, and it looks like Dr. Horrible will end up being one of this summer’s web “sitebusters.”
Look for Episode III tomorrow!

Any adult with half a brain can see that humankind has gone insane
To the point where I don’t know if I’ll upset the status quo
If I throw the poison in the watermain
Listen close to everybody’s heart and hear that breaking sound
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart and crashing to the ground
I cannot believe my eyes
How the world’s filled with filth and lies
But it’s plain to see evil inside of me is on the rise
Look around, we’re living with the lost and found
Just when you feel you’ve almost drowned, you find yourself on solid ground
And you believe there’s good in everybody’s heart
Keep it safe and sound
With hope, you can do your part to turn a life around
I cannot believe my eyes
Is the world finally growing wise
Because it seems to me,
Some kind of harmony is on the rise
Anyone with half a brain
Could spend their whole life howelling in pain
As the dark is everywhere and Penny doesn’t seem to care
That soon the dark in me is all that will remain.
Listen close to everybody’s heart
And hear that breaking sound
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart and crashing to the ground
I cannot believe my eyes
How the world’s filled with filth and lies
But it’s plain to see evil inside of me is on the rise
(Take it slow, he looks at me and seems to know
The things that I’m afraid to show
And suddenly I feel this glow
And I believe there’s good in everybody’s heart
Keep it safe and sound
With hope, you can do your part to turn a life around
I cannot believe my eyes,
How the world’s finally growing wise
And it’s plain to see,
Rapture inside of me
Is on the rise)

He saw the operation you tried to pull today
But your humiliation means he still votes nay
And now assassination is just the only way
There will be blood and it might be yours,
So go kill someone

Here’s a story of a girl
Who grew up lost and lonley
Thinking love was fairytale
And trouble was made only for me
Even in the darkness,
Every color can be found
And every day,
A rain brings water
Flowing to things growing in the ground
Grief replaced with pity
For a city barely coping
Dreams are easy to achieve
If hope is all life open to be
Anytime you’re hurt
There’s one who has it worse around
And every drop of rain
Will keep you growing
Seeds you’re sowing in the ground
So keep your head up Billy buddy

This appeared as a moral dillemma
’cause at first, it was weird
Though I swore to eliminate the worst of the plague that devoured humanity
It’s true I was vague on the how,
So how can it be that you have shown me the light
It’s a brand new day and the sun is high
All the birds are singing that you’re going to die
How I hesitated, now I wonder why
It’s a brand new day
All the times that you beat me unconscious, I forgive
All the crimes of complete lack of honesty, I’ll live
Mr. Cool, Mr. Right, Mr. Knowitall is through
Now our future’s so bright and I owe it all to you
You’ve shown me the light
It’s a brand new me
I’ve got no remorse
Now the water’s rising but I know the course
I’m going to shock the world, going to show Bad Horse
It’s a brand new day
And Penny will see the evil me
Not a joke, not a dork, not a failure
And she may cry but her tears will dry
When I hand her the keys to a shiny new Australia
It’s a brand new day, yeah the sun is high
All the angels sing because you’re gonna die
Go ahead and laugh
Yeah, I’m a funny guy
Tell everyone goodbye
It’s a brand new day
Wow. Thanks!
