Tears fill up my eyes
But there’s no time for sorrow
The Force is strong in my mind
And I know there’s no tomorrow
I see your barge is leaving soon
And you’re looking for a thrill
But if I cant change your mind
Then no one will
And all throughout the years
I’ve tried to stay away from here
But you acquired my frozen friend
And so I’ve come to bring an end
I convinced your men to let me in
With my Jedi skill
But if I can’t change your mind
Than no one will
Even though you see my face
You dropped me to a bitter place
To amuse you
Then when I return
Cause I will return
I hope you’ll see I’m dedicated
To rescue friends you refrigerated
If you look again you will find
It’s a good idea that you change your mind
How can I wave away
This bad idea you’ll win this one
And if you don’t trust me now
You'll never trust in anyone
I’ve got a crazy plan
And my sister’s prepped to kill
But if I can't change your mind
Then no one will
You have one last chance
Before I lose my chill
'Cause if I can't change your mind
Then no one will

There She Rolls
03:26
|

There she rolls
There she rolls again
She made a saving throw
And I just need to know
How bad was that blow
There she rolls
There she rolls again
There’s poison in our veins
I just can’t contain
The damage that remains
There she rolls
There she rolls again
She’s rolling for attack
But the orc is hitting back
Are we alive or are we a snack
There she rolls
There she rolls again
She rolled a nine
But that is fine
It’s enough to leave this mine
And I just need to know
Should we stay or should we go
Should we stay or should we go now
Should we stay or should we go now
If we go there might be trouble
But if we stay it might be double
So you've got to let me know
Should we stay or should we roll
There she rolls
There she rolls again
We’re running for our lives
She’s out of throwing knives
Let’s hope someone survives
There she rolls
There she rolls again
There she rolls
There she rolls again
There she rolls
There she rolls again

Meep Meep Meep

When I find myself in times of trouble
Doctor Beaker comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom,
MEEP MEEP MEEP
And when the paperclips need tasting
he's standing there right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom
MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
Squeaky words of wisdom
MEEP MEEP MEEP
And when the science is not settled
and learned men don't agree
There will be an answer
MEEP MEEP MEEP
For though our trial failed us,
there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer
MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
There will be an answer
MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
There will be an answer
MEEP MEEP MEEP
And when the fireproof paper burns
there's still a light that shines on me
Burn until tomorrow
MEEP MEEP MEEP
I wake up to the sound of panic
and a dozen Beakers come to me
Screaming words of wisdom
MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
There will be an answer
MEEP MEEP MEEP
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP,
MEEP MEEP MEEP, MEEP MEEP MEEP
Such great words of wisdom
MEEP MEEP MEEP

Super Sheep
04:30
|

|
I am quietly grazing
Fluffy cute and white
Not watching for bananas
Not looking for a fight
You’re a worm with a mission
A grenade in your hand
I wish I was special
So baaing special
Now I’m a sheep
With a super cape
Flying through air
I don’t belong here
Whatever gets the job done
Knock the other worms around
Holy hand grenades
To make a hole through the ground
But now they’re so clever
Teleporting away
My turn to be special
So very special
Now I’m a sheep
With a super cape
What am I doing here
I am exploding
Ninja ropes won’t save you
Ninja rope
Wherever you’re hiding
I will blow you away
I’m so special
so baa special
I’m a sheep
with a super cape
What am I doing here
I don’t belong here
I don’t belong here

Oh Leia
03:34
|

I heard there was a secret base
The Rebels built in outer space
But you don’t know the way to get there, do ya?
You can torture me all day
Even blow my home away
But I won’t give the navigation to you
Oh Leia Oh Leia
Oh Leia Oh Leia
Maybe you were a touch too slow
But Greedo, all I really know
Is how to love the man who outdrew ya
Maybe the Hutt will let me in
Maybe I’ll show a little skin
But Han, I’ll break my chains to rescue ya
Oh Leia Oh Leia
Oh Leia Oh Leia
It seems like we’ve been here before
Wandering around this forest floor
You don’t think we’re lost here, do ya?
We found your helmet lying there
Still smelling of your braided hair
We’re afraid that something happened to ya
No Leia no Leia
Oh Leia
Hi Leia
I never thought we’d separate
But as our son turned to hate
The weary weight sent its bill to ya
Then that fateful bridge not crossed
A new world refined by loss
And now it’s a cold and lonely Leia
Oh Leia Oh Leia
Oh Leia Oh Leia
Oh Leia Oh Leia
Princess Leia
General Leia

There’s a bright yellow light on the server
Now there more red lights on the server
The CPU’s high as the last digit of Pi
And the tickets are stacking clear up to the sky
Oh what a terrible morning
Oh what a crappy day
I have a dreadful feeling
The alarms won’t go away
The users are in a panic
There are pitchforks outside the door
System status is red ‘cause the network is dead
And the hardware is screeching like never before
Oh what a terrible morning
I should have stayed in bed
I have a horrible feeling
I’d probably be better off dead
We’ve given our best endeavor
But the network is down forever
Time to take in hand our disaster plan
A one way ticket to a far off land
.......
Oh what a beautiful evening
Palm trees swaying at night
I’ve got a wonderful feeling
‘Cause there’s not a server in sight
Everything’s turning out right

Quarantine
Close up all the doors and don't go out onto the street
Quarantine
Turn all of the lights out and stay under your blanket and sheet
Quarantine
Sitting on the sofa watching TV and drinking beer
Quarantine
You don’t have to stay home but you can’t come here
I wish everyone would stay at home
I wish everyone would stay at home
I wish everyone would stay at home
Please stay home...
Quarantine
Time for you to stay there in the places you already are
Quarantine
There's nowhere to go, 'cause they closed every café and bar
So just take off your jackets, put them in the closet
I hope you at least have a friend
Quarantine
Please stay safe until they say the outside is safe once again.
Quarantine
Time for you to stay there in the places you already are
I wish everyone would stay at home
I wish everyone would stay at home
I wish everyone would stay at home
Please stay home...
Quarantine
Please stay safe until they say the outside is safe once again.

Whiskey In The Jawa
02:25
|
|||
|
When I was rolling over
some Tatooine mountains
I thought a saw a Jawa
And then zap, I was drowsin'
So first he pushed me over
Then he dragged me to his ship
Welded on a restraining bolt
So I couldn’t give him the slip
Shumeneez un toyneepa
Okka - Untini
Okka - Untini
There’s whiskey in the Jawa
So he brought me to a station
To sell me to a farmer
Me and my poor fellow bots
To an endless sea of labor
He was counting out the credits
And it made a pretty stack
But then I blew my motivator
So he had to take me back
Shumeneez un toyneepa
Okka - Untini
Okka - Untini
There’s whiskey in the Jawa
Some Jawas like
To trade and to barter
And other Jawas like
scavenging for water
My Jawas likes
The whiskey that’s Correlian
Then dancing and fighting
And stirring up rebellion
Shumeneez un toyneepa
Okka - Untini
Okka - Untini
There’s whiskey in the Jawa
One day when our Jawa
Was laid low from the whiskey
Me and my fellow bots
We got bold and risky
We knocked off our restraining bolts
And hid out among the junk
Made our dash to freedom
Yeah, me and my pal Gonk
Shumeneez un toyneepa
Okka - Untini
Okka - Untini
There’s whiskey in the Jawa
Shumeneez un toyneepa
Okka - Untini
Okka - Untini
There’s whiskey in the Jawa

SupercalifragilisticExpelliarmus
Even though the sound of it could
Very much alarm us
But if you say it loud enough
The bad guys can not charm us
SupercalifragilisticExpelliarmus
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
Because my magic was not strong
When I was just a lad
My father told me run away
From wizards who were bad
But then I learned this spell
And I no longer have to run
It snatches all the wands away
And here’s how it’s done
SupercalifragilisticExpelliarmus
Even though the sound of it could
Very much alarm us
But if you say it loud enough
The bad guys can not charm us
SupercalifragilisticExpelliarmus
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
He traveled all the wizard’s world
And everywhere He went
He’d use his spell and all would say
There goes a clever gent
When Death Eaters came at me
I’d just sigh and yawn
A flick and swish and my spell
And then their wands were gone
SupercalifragilisticExpelliarmus
Even though the sound of it could
Very much alarm us
But if you say it loud enough
The bad guys can not charm us
SupercalifragilisticExpelliarmus
Now, you can say it backwards, which is armus-eli-expi-listic-fragi-cali-rupus
But that's going a bit too far, don't you think?
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
So when the house elf’s got your tongue
There's no need for dismay
Just summon up this special spell
And you can save the day
But better use it carefully
It can be hard to stop
For example? Yes?
Once time I used it accidentally
on Olivander’s shop
That’s a lot of wands alright
SupercalifragilisticExpelliarmus
Even though the sound of it could
Very much alarm us
But if you say it loud enough
The bad guys can not charm us
SupercalifragilisticExpelliarmus

The Looks of Smellerbee
03:23
|
|||
|
The fondest wish I ever had since the day that I ran away
Was to win the war for earth and king and free all Ba Sing Se
I still recall the sad farewell as we retreated to the trees
But in those leaves I met a girl who would bring me to my knees
Oh the hard looks
The driving looks
The looks of Smellerbee
From her home she had run away when the Fire Nation came
And vengeance’ fire burned in her eyes when they questioned her name
Her cheek ran with the finest red In paint so bright and fierce
And though my arrows were fast and sharp It was my heart she did pierce
Oh the hard looks
The driving looks
The looks of Smellerbee
You can keep the paint of your Kyoshi girl Or the blank looks of Joodee
I’ll not look twice at Water Tribe girls in their village by the sea
Through thick and thin, through war and pain I’ll always with her stand
I’ll bend my bow and follow her through all the four lands
Oh the hard looks
The driving looks
The looks of Smellerbee
Oh the hard looks
The dirty looks
The looks of Smellerbee

One two princes building castles
That's what I said, now
Princes that don’t have any vassals
Just go ahead, now
One has got a mine of silver
That's some bread, now
This one has built upon the river
Ain't he wet now
This one, has got a monastery
Got a church now
This one has got no dromedary
That’s Camel Up now
You rolled your dice,
But have to wait a while
First player start now
You sell some goods,
to buy a knowledge tile
That’s pretty smart now
Roll a 6, roll a 3
I can make it work,
It’s all good with me
I got 20 workers
Can’t you see
That I’ve got a master strategy
Got a master strategy
Said if you want build a castle
Just go ahead now
If you’d like get some cattle
Just go ahead now
if you wanna build a tower
Just go ahead now
If you want to play for hours
Just go ahead now
This one has a bunch of cattle
Bring on the sheep now
This one does not have any battles
Roll a die now
This one’s got a lot of cardboard
Just punch 'em out now
This one won so many awards
Meeple’s Choice now
Roll a 6, roll a 3
I can make it work,
it’s all good with me
I got 20 workers
Can’t you see
That I’ve got a master strategy
Got a master strategy
Said if you want build a tile
Just go ahead now
If you want wait a while
Just go ahead now
If you want to use a power
Go ahead now
If you want to play for hours
Go ahead now
Go ahead now
Go ahead now

Meeples Aren't People
02:36
|

Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
So we're different colors on different sides of the board,
And you're looking on with envy at the size of my hoard
It's obvious I'm winning though you've done nothing wrong.
And you’re staring icy daggers as I'm singing this song
I can't understand,
Why you throw a fit
If it's all so bad
Why do you just quit.
Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
Now you're throwing down your pieces and you're shouting at me,
Just because I'm not playing into your strategy
Sometimes the dice are friendly but that's not a cheat
Next time I might be the one not getting the wheat
I can't understand,
It's all just fun
Please calm yourself
And put down the gun
Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
I can't understand,
What makes a game
Take a sour turn
Go down in flames
