Continuation of Mulan lyrics since Joi likes them so much lol wink And it's my first post of the day. I'll tell you how it turned out.
Village bather:
This is what you give me to work with?
Well, honey, I've seen worse.
We're gonna turn this sow's ear...
Into a silk purse.
We'll have you
Washed and dried
Primped and polished till you glow with pride
Trust my recipe for instant bride
You'll bring honor to us all
Hairdresser #1:
Wait and see
When we're through
Hairdresser #2:
Boys will gladly go to war for you
Hairdresser #1:
With good fortune
Hairdresser #2:
And a great hairdo
Both:
You'll bring honor to us all
All village women:
A girl can bring her family
Great honor in one way
By striking a good match
And this could be the day
Dresser #1:
Men want girls with good taste
Dresser #2:
Calm
Fa Li:
Obedient
Dresser #1:
Who work fast-paced
Fa Li:
With good breeding
Dresser #2:
And a tiny waist
All three:
You'll bring honor to us all
All village women:
We all must serve our Emperor
Who guards us from the Huns
A man by bearing arms
A girl by bearing sons
Makeup artist/Fa Li/Mulan:
When we're through you can't fail
Like a lotus blossom soft and pale
How could any fellow say "No sale"
You'll bring honor to us all
Fa Li (spoken):
There - you're ready.
Grandmother Fa (spoken):
Not yet! An apple for serenity...
A pendant for balance...
Beads of jade for beauty
You must proudly show it
Now add a cricket just for luck...
And even you can't blow it!
Mulan:
Ancestors, hear my plea
Help me not to make a fool of me
And to not uproot my family tree
Keep my father standing tall...
Girls:
Scarier than the undertaker
We are meeting our matchmaker
All village women:
Destiny, guard our girls
And our future as it fast unfurls
Please look kindly on these cultured pearls
Each a perfect porcelain doll...
Girl #1:
Please bring honor to us
Girl #2:
Please bring honor to us
Girl #3:
Please bring honor to us
Mulan
Please bring honor to us
All village women:
Please bring honor to us all!
Edit: 28 gold and I got a pink box when I went to edit my post *dances* It's my first pink box. And I haven't gotten a random event in a LONG time 3nodding

Okay in the spirit of Christmas... I've decided to share something that I found interesting on the internet in regards to Christmas and Mistletoes wink
For Scandinavians, the goddess of love (Frigga) is strongly associated with mistletoe. This link to romance may be where our tradition of kissing under mistletoe comes from.

Good idea E!
The tradition of Christmas trees was started in 16th century Germany. Martin Luther, a German theologian, is thought to have popularized the concept. On a brisk, clear Christmas Eve, Luther was walking home under a bright, starry sky, which was so beautiful that he wanted to recreate its beauty for his children. His idea was to decorate a large evergreen with glowing candles, a custom we still honor today in more modern forms.

DaringSpirit Kimini Did you know that in Gaia, the gold you get for your first post every day (that is, after midnight, Gaia time) is proportional to the amount of text you post in it? Our research has shown that if your first post is approximately 400 words long, you will get 27 gold. No more than that, though. This thread is where you should come first every day, and post a good long bit of blather for your gold. Have fun and good luck!! ^_^ Can't think of something to say? Quote someone else. Quote someone's quote. Just please don't post a full page of bumps. So, I've started a thread Here where you can make your first post and make it count! I earned 27 gold from my first post. Make it your first stop everyday and start the day off with at least 27 gold blaugh ::: does a groovy li'l jig ::: Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... (ya gotta imagine drunken dwarves singing this li'l tune to get the full effect..) Gold Gold Gold Gold... (come on folks! you know the words!) Gold Gold Gold Gold... (stop to drink a li'l ale...) Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... (stop to drink a li'l ale...) Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... (stop to drink a li'l ale...) Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold... Gold Gold Gold Gold...

When you ask how I’ve been here without you
I like to say I’ve been fine and I do
But we both know the truth is hard to come by
And if I told the truth, that’s not quite true
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some time the hard times won’t leave you alone
Some times the cold winds blow a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Now the face that I see in my mirror
More and more is a stranger to me
More and more I can see there’s a danger
In becoming what I never thought I’d be
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some time the hard times won’t leave you alone
Some times the cold winds blow a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone

Lyin' Eyes...Eagles
City girls just seem to find out early
How to open doors with just a smile
A rich old man
And she won't have to worry
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
I guess ev'ry form of refuge has its price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is
Only given to a man with hands as cold as ice
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin eyes
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the nice anticipating
'cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
She rushes to his arms,
They fall together
She whispers that it's only for awhile
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
You can't hid your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't now way to hide you lyin' eyes
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be
You can't hide your lyin eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes

You Better You Bet...The Who
You better you better you bet.
I call you on the telephone my voice too rough with cigarettes.
I sometimes thing I should just go home but I'm dealing with a memory
that never forgets
I love to hear you say my name especially when you say yes
I got your body right now on my mind and I drunk myself b-lind to the
sound of old T-Rex
To the sound of old T-Rex - who's next?
[Chorus:]
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you say you better
You better you better you bet
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you like a knife
I want those feeble minded axes overthrown
I'm not into your passport picture I just like your nose
You welcome me with open arms and open legs
I know only fools have needs but this one never begs
I don't really mind how much you love me
A little is really alright
When you say come over and spend the night
Tonight
[Chorus: (as above)]
I lay on the bed with you
We could make some book of records
Your dog keeps licking my nose
And chewing up all those letters
Saying "you better"
You better bet your life
You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now
You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now.
I showed up late one night with a neon light for a visa
But knowing I'm so eager to fight can't make letting me in any easier
I know tha~t I been wearing crazy clothes and I look pretty crappy
Sometime
But my body feels so good and I still sing a razor line everytime.
And when it comes to all night living
I know what I'm giving
I've got it all down to a tee
And it's free.
[Chorus: (as above)

Behind Blue Eyes...Who
No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies
But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you
No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through
But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool
If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat
No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby
Why don't you all f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to dig what we all s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
This is my generation

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

Xenedra Behind Blue Eyes...WhoI used to like this song, but the radio station kept playing it over and over again. Sometimes it's their fault that people grow tired of a specific song.
