Noooooo, tell me!

This is a quote from an email a buddy sent me. I haven't tried it yet - haven't played the game since I got this email.

****************************************************
At the Mos Eisley Cantina, enter the following two codes: CL4U5H (for Santa hat and red clothes) & TYH319 (for white beard Extra)

Go to the Character Customizer and create the proper costume. Use a human head, the appropriate red clothing...and don't forget the red cap! Santa can wield the weapon of your choice -- we recommend the green or red lightsaber to seasonally complement his shiny red duds. (Remember, the color of his lightsaber decides whether his Force powers are naughty or nice.)
In the Extras menu, activate Disguise 3.
Enter the character-based level of your choice in Free Play.
Spread holiday cheer to a galaxy in pieces.
 
A thumbnail sketch, a jewelers stone
A mean idea to call my own
Old man don't lay so still you're not yet young
There's time to teach, point to point,
Point observation, children carry reservations
Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold, leaves me cold.
A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly

Singer sing me a given, singer sing me a song
Standing on the shoulders of giants everybody's looking on
(old man don't lay so still you're not yet young,
There's time to teach, point to point,
Point observation, children carry reservations
Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly away, away.

I am king of all I see, my kingdom for a voice
Old man don't lay so still, you're not yet young
There's time to teach, point to point
Point observation, children carry reservations
Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly away

Everybody hit the ground. everybody hit the ground.
 

Wow! I kinda feel like I'm on my own solo American Idol. My inner Clay Aiken is coming out! (pun intended)...

An oldie, but a goodie. This one's from the "Reckoning" album...


This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a seat
Take in one symphony now, we've just begun to battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waited hold it to you in the colored come another

Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years to sleep away the pain
She will return, she will return

This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a seat
Take in one symphony now, we've just begun to battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waded seven seas swimming colored come another

Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years to sleep away the pain
She will return, she will return

This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a chair
Take in one symphony now, I guess we lost that battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waded seven seas swimming colored come another

Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years the commune did reign
She will return, she will return


Moving on to They Might Be Giants or U2. Haven't decided yet.
 
OK. I don't have to decide. Shuffle play tunes by both! Y'all are in for a treat. TMBG are the real deal! And U2 is a nice little band from Ireland, you may have heard of them...



I have climbed the highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I believed it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for...
 
My love she throws me like a rubber ball
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
She won’t catch me or break my fall
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Baby’s got blue skies up ahead
But in this I’m a rain cloud
You know she likes a dry kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

I’m losing you
Hey hey hey, I’m losing you yeah
Ain’t love the sweetest thing

I wanted to run but she made me crawl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Eternal fire, she turned me to straw
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
You know I got black eyes
But they burn so brightly for her
Mine is a blind kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

I’m losing you
Oh oh oh, I’m losing you yeah
Ain’t love the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh, yeah

Blue-eyed boy and this brown-eyed girl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
You can sew it up but you still see the tear
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Baby’s got blue skies up ahead
And in this I’m a rain cloud
You know we got a stormy kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
 
OK, there'll be waaaaay more U2 songs than TMBG, because of the vast difference in the number of songs I have (250+ U2 songs vs. 75+/- TMBG songs).

This next song comes with a little story. It's called "Drowning Man". Just after my son was born, he was put in Neonatal ICU for about a week. I had this U2 cd ("War") in my car, and I pretty much wore it out driving back & forth between the hospital and our house for sleep & showers. I can't hear this song without thinking of all the tubes and monitors connected to his tiny, tiny body. Very strong lyrics for me.



Take my hand
You know I’ll be there,
If you can I’ll cross
The sky for your love,
For I have promised for
To be with you tonight
And for the time that will come.

Take my hand
You know I’ll be there,
If you can I’ll cross
The sky for your love
And I understand
These winds and tides,
This change of times
Won’t drag you away.
Hold on, hold on tightly,
Hold on and don't let go
Of my love.

The storms will pass
It won’t be long now.
The storms will pass
But my love last forever.

And take my hand,
You know I’ll be there,
If you can I’ll cross the sky
For your love.
Give you what I hold dear,
Hold on, hold on tightly.
Hold on, hold on tightly.
Rise up, rise up with wings,
Like eagles you’ll run, you’ll run.
You’ll run and not grow weary.

Take my hand, take my hand.
Hold on tightly.
Hold on tightly.
This love will last forever,
This love will last forever,
Take my hand,
Take my hand.
 
I’m ready
Ready for the laughing gas
I’m ready
Ready for what’s next
Ready to duck
Ready to dive
Ready to say
I’m glad to be alive
I’m ready
I’m ready for the push

In the cool of the night
The warmth of the breeze
I’ll be crawling around
On my hands and knees

She’s just down the line ... zoo station
Got to make it on time ... zoo station

I’m ready
I’m ready for the gridlock
I’m ready
To take it to the street
Ready for the shuffle
Ready for the deal
Ready to let go
Of the steering wheel
I’m ready
Ready for the crush

Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
It’s alright...it’s alright...it’s alright...it’s alright
Hey baby...hey baby...hey baby...hey baby
It’s alright
It’s alright

Time is a train
Makes the future the past
Leaves you standing in the station
Your face pressed up against the glass

I’m just down the line from your love...zoo station
Under the sign of your love...zoo station
I’m gonna be there...zoo station
Tracing the line...zoo station
I’m gonna make it on time...make it on time...zoo station
Just two stops down the line...zoo station
Just a stop down the line...zoo station
 
Here's the first TMBG tune I'll do for you this a'ertnoon.

Meet James Ensor
Belgium’s famous painter
Dig him up and shake his hand
Appreciate the man

Before there were junk stores
Before there was junk
He lived with his mother and the torments of Christ
The world was transformed
A crowd gathered round
Pressed against his window so they could be the first

To meet James Ensor
Belgium’s famous painter
Raise a glass and sit and stare
Understand the man

He lost all his friends
He didn’t need his friends
He lived with his mother and repeated himself
The world has forgotten
The world moved along
The crowd at his window went back to their homes

Meet James Ensor
Meet James Ensor
Belgium’s famous painter
Dig him up and shake his hand
Appreciate the man
 
I am working this New Years but fortunately it is taking a group to the Rose Parade. New Years Eve I will be at a hotel in Burbank with my deaf co-worker and probably be in bed earlier than normal. We have to be on the bus at 6 the next morning to get to the parade and our seats. I'm exhausted just thinking about it. :)
 
Back to U2...


Green light, 7-11
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turning but you're upside down
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Hey babe, is that what it is

Red lights, gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows

And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing

If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...and the day would keep its trust
Stay...and the night would be enough

Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satellite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin

And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you

If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...then the day would keep its trust
Stay...with the demons you drowned
Stay...with the spirit I found
Stay...and the night would be enough

Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground

Just the bang
And the clatter
As an angel
Hits the ground
 
More from Bono & the boyz...


You can reach
But you can't grab it
You can hold it, control it
No, you can't bag it


You can push
But you can't direct it circulate, regulate, oh no
You cannot connect it


You know you're chewing bubblegum
You know what that is
But you still want some
You just can't get enough
Of that lovie dovie stuff


You get confused
But you know it
Yeah, you hurt for it, work for it, love
You don't always show it


Let's go
Let's go
Discotheque


Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Discotheque



You want to be the one
But you know you're someone else instead
You want to be the song
Be the song that you're hearing, yeah


Love...
(heaven in your heart)
(you want heaven in your heart)
Love...
(you want heaven in your heart)
(you want heaven in your heart)
(you want heaven in your heart)
Love...


It's not a trick
'cause you can't learn it
It's the way you don't pay, that's okay
'cause you can't earn it


You know you're chewing bubblegum
You know what that is
But you still want some
You just can't get enough
Of that lovie-dovie stuff


Let's go
Let's go
Discotheque


Go go
Go go
Discotheque


You're looking for the one
But you know you're somewhere else instead
You want to be the song
Be the song that you hear in your head


Love...
Love...


But you take what you can get
'cause it's all that you can find
But you know there's something more
Tonight, tonight, tonight


And oh my...how so...


I...I can't get
I can't...not enough
I can't get in
I can't...not enough
I can't get in
I can't...not enough
Not enough
I can't...I can't...I
I can't get in...not...not


Love...
 
They Might Be Giants - from the "Flood" album. This one's called "Dead"

:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:
I returned a bag of groceries
Accidently taken off the shelf
Before the expiration date
I came back as a bag of groceries
Accidently taken off the shelf
Before the date stamped on myself

Did a large procession wave their (did a)
Torches as my head fell in the basket, (large pro-)
And was everybody dancing on the casket? (cession dance? )

Now it’s over I’m dead and I haven’t done anything that I want (now it’s over)
Or, I’m still alive and there’s nothing I want to do

I will never say the word
Procrastinate again; I’ll never
See myself in the mirror with my eyes closed
I didn’t apologize for
When I was eight and I made my younger brother
Have to be my personal slave

Did a large procession wave their (did a)
Torches as my head fell in the basket, (large pro-)
And was everybody dancing on the casket? (cession dance? )

Now it’s over I’m dead and I haven’t done anything that I want (now it’s over)
Or, I’m still alive and there’s nothing I want to do

(so) so I won’t
(sit) sit at home
(and) anymore
(and) and you won’t
(and) see my head in
(and) the window
(and) and I won’t
(and) be around
(and) ever anymore
(and) and I’ll be up there on the wall at the store

I returned a bag of groceries
Accidently taken off the shelf
Before the expiration date
I came back as a bag of groceries
Accidently taken off the shelf
Before the date stamped on myself

Did a large procession wave their (did a)
Torches as my head fell in the basket, (large pro-)
And was everybody dancing on the casket? (cession dance? )
