Hey, all! Just a silly, for Star Wars Day. I hope to record it by this afternoon.
For your Star Wars Day pleasure, a new song (to the tune of “First of May” by Jonathan Coulton):
In nineteen seventy seven
My life was changed for good
A little independent movie
Opened in my neighborhood
A princess led a rebellion
Against the evil galactic empire
And Luke blew up the Death Star just
As it was gonna open fire.
And I said, ooh chile, never seen so many
Spaceships on this one mission,
Ooh chile, in forty years we gonna
start us a new tradition
Online...
Cause it's the fourth of May, fourth of May,
May the fourth be with you today,
With Chewie, Han, and Leia,
And Kylo Ren and Rey.
Jawas say “Ootini” in their sandcrawler,
Anakin hits on Padme Amidala,
Yavin below you, Bespin above,
Celebrate spring with a crazy little thing called…
Star Wars Day.
It's really all about Darth Vader,
How he starts out as a little kid.
(We wish midichlorians didn't exist,
But of course they did.)
He really liked Princess Padme,
He really didn't like sand,
Then he killed all the younglings
And Obi-Wan cut off his legs and hand
And I said, ooh chile, they should had pre-natal
Care for your wife and children
Ooh chile, you're gonna be one of the
Cinema’s greatest villains,
Online
'Cause it's the fourth of May, fourth of May,
May the fourth be with you today,
With Qui-Gonn Jinn and Yoda,
Mighty Jabba and BB-8,
Jawas say “Ootini” in their sandcrawler,
Anakin hits on Padme Amidala,
Yavin below you, Bespin above,
Celebrate spring with a crazy little thing called…
Star Wars Day.
So now it's forty-four years later,
It's still in everything that I do,
I named my little Corgi Jar Jar,
My kids Threepio and Artoo.
I carry round a big light saber,
Colored purple like Mace Windu’s
I tried to use the Force on a parking cop,
Got not one ticket but two.
And I say, ooh chile, the games and stories and the
Universe is expanding,
Ooh chile, in forty years I’ll still be
Loud and proud and standing,
Online...
'Cause it's the fourth of May, fourth of May,
May the fourth be with you today,
Finn and Poe and Rose and Lando,
And Greedo got blown away.…
(HAN SHOT FIRST)
Jawas say “Ootini” in their sandcrawler,
Anakin hits on Padme Amidala,
Yavin below you, Bespin above,
Celebrate spring with a crazy little thing called…
Star Wars Day.
Star Wars Day.
This is the Way!
I have spoken.
