jkathrens Hoot Hoots share my fear of Ewoks. Maybe those bloodthirsty bears were only a nightmare... Favorite track: Bloodthirsty Bears.

Jewel Loree "Bloodthirsty Bears" made me laugh out loud for at least the first 15 times I listened to it. It's also just the catchiest thing ever. Favorite track: Bloodthirsty Bears.

I've got a T16 I'm the best pilot in the outer rim I've got a teenage dream I'm gonna find Darth Vader and stick it to him But I hear Tosche Station has sexy new power converters So that's where I'm gonna go Don't confuse me with scruffy nerf herders I'm impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) Everyone knows that I'm impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) Didn't you know that I'm impressive But I can't fight the Empire yet I've got a new X Wing One Death Star kill under my belt I've got a part time fling Processing emotions that I've never felt before And what's more! I had a pretty tough year nearly froze to death got bossed around by a man with pointy ears But I'm learning yeah I'm learning to surpass all my peers I don't really have any but I made a few rocks float Cmon that's pretty cool I hope that's made one thing clear Yeah I know that I'm impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) Didn't you know that I'm impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) Am I trying to hard to be impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) I know I can be impressive But I'm not quite a Jedi yet I've got a family Relationships are complicated My sister once kissed me I'm so glad we never dated Now let's talk about my dad He turned my best friend into a carbon slab Then he chopped off my best hand And He murdered my mentor And He tortured my sister Now he wants me to be His right handless man I gotta stop him But I'm not sure if I'm ready Tho I'll do the best that I can Yeah I know that I'm impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) Haven't you heard that I'm impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) Didn't you know that I'm impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) Am I trying to hard to be impressive (I'm impressaaaeeeeve) I know I can be impressive I'm impressive Even my scum bag dad knows I'm impressive I'm impressive But how am I supposed to know if I'm a Jedi yet

I was trained to pilot a speeder Through a forest like thread through the needle I can wield the deadliest weapons My hands are a tangible extension Of my leaders quest for order I’m Death in the form of a soldier But there was a gap in my training I don’t know how to compare the Sheer. Raw. Ferocity. That descended from the trees of the forest moon Without any warning Bloodthirsty bears, they were everywhere Bloodthirsty bears falling out of the air Bloodthirsty bears crawling everywhere I can never forget their murderous stare Uh, That sounds suspicious We’ve got some questions (Did they have blasters?) Not exactly (Were they super massive?) They were 3 feet tall (Were they Jedi masters?) Uhh, probably not? (Did they at least run faster than you?) No, they were cuddly and cute That’s why We were so surprised To look at them and see The true nature of evil in their eyes Go ahead and laugh Make your jokes, I don’t care When they come for you, you’ll know That their hunger for violence is beyond compare Bloodthirsty bears, they were everywhere Bloodthirsty bears falling out of the air Bloodthirsty bears crawling everywhere I can never forget their murderous stare That soulless glare follow me everywhere Those beady black eyes follow me everywhere

I hear you fellas need my spaceship (oh oh yeah) Haven’t you heard of it it's kinda (the best of its kind) My best buddy hear can tell you (oh oh yeah) We've got the fastest hunk of junk that (you could find) I hear you’ve got Imperial trouble Well that’s gonna cost you double You say for that you could get your own ship, well kid Who’s gonna fly it? Do we have an agreement? Will I see you in a little bit? Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah I guess I’ll seen you at Docking Bay 94 And then you’ll get to see my spaceship She don’t look like much but she’s got it (where it counts) Yeah you’ll get to see my spaceship She don’t look like much but she’s got it (where it counts) Where did she run off to? Where did she run off to? I just found my spaceship (oh oh yeah) I’ve become old searching each system (one at a time) Yeah she looks a little different (oh oh yeah) But there’s no question in my mind that (she is mine) But I ran in to a couple On board who caused some trouble With authorities with whom I have picked a bone But all that action Was all a big distraction Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey You big old fuzzball wouldn’t you say it was worth the wait? It feels so great to be home Because I’ve finally found my spaceship She don’t look like much but she’s worth it (she’s so worth it) Yeah I finally found my spaceship She don’t look like much but she’s worth it (she’s so worth it) It feels so great to be home It feels so great to be home It feels so great to be home It feels so great to be home Hey Chewie we’re home

He settled down in a home In the desert alone Year after year slipped by He met a headstrong kid He tried to mentor him He let slip he knew how the boy's father died But the story he told was factually light Years later the kid asked why The old man felt so compelled to lie, and he said There’s a little bit of lie in every truth From a certain point of view There’s a little bit of lie After the old man fell He came back just to tell the boy where to find The last of his kind, and after A mean hook from a wampa A crash land in a swamp The boy thought this better be worth my time And then the boy met this weird little freak Who rummaged around in his camp saying I know what you seek The boy rolled his eyes but he was in for a surprise Cause that’s what you get for judging others by their size His new master could’ve written a book On how riddles and white lies can sometimes get you A little bit closer to the truth There’s a little bit of lie in every truth From a certain point of view There’s a little bit of lie

(Rey to Kylo) Everybody knows, everybody knows You’ve got daddy issues Does it make you mad? Does it make you sad? That I can resist you? Did you see the ocean? Did you see the land? That I always dream of? Well, you’ve had your look, yeah you’ve had your fun Now you've had enough so I said Get out my Head You shoulda seen your face, the panic in your eyes When I saw right through you Do you really think, do you think it’s wise To talk to the dead and why do you Wanna be just like your grandaddy? You know you’ll never be half as strong as that monstrosity Now I know you’re pretty weak when you lose control You are pretty good, but I am a natural So go and run to your keeper And let him know you couldn’t get it done You might think that I am weaker But this change in me has just begun I said Get Out My Head

Empire 03:59
You’re up there, I know you can see me You’re up there, and you want to delete me But I’m not going that easy You want a piece of me? Well you better bring, you better bring an army I am an ideal and you are A black storm, a disease Ravaging what you see I know you think you can break me I know you think you can kill me If I fall I promise you’ll see me Again, but I will be stronger than you Can ever conceive So you better bring, you better bring an army

Yub Nubbers Are the one ones Who know what happened In the trees Sebastian Shaw Han shot first Nobody can change what's history Accept the past You cant change it anyhow The ink is dry You'll only smudge it up now When you meddle with the movie You get dirty, don't you know it's ours (There is nothing special about this edition) Everyone's in the world Every movie Should end with drums And a party full of fuzzy tiny bears And some droids And the original ghosts And wookie hugs for everybody gathered there Movie done Why change it anyhow? The ink is dry You'll only smudge it up now When you meddle with the movie You get dirty, don't you know it's ours There is nothing special about this edition Everyone's in the world There is nothing special about this edition This is proof how one can subtract by addition Why put so much effort in needless revision There is nothing special about this edition There is plenty special in the first edition We love every so-called mistake and omission There's no need to tinker searching for perfection There is plenty special in the first edition

about

The Hoot Hoots Seattle

Seattle power pop quartet The Hoot Hoots are irresistible party starters. Their songs are powered by fuzzy guitars, fuzzier keyboards, and headhum-inducing hooks, and all these combine in a glorious, slightly insane energy in both their live shows and in their newest album, Colorpunch. ... more
