Weird Al Yankovic - The Saga Begins lyrics
A long, long time ago,
In a galaxy far away,
Naboo was under an attack.
And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn,
Could talk the Federation in
to maybe cutting them a little slack.
But their response, it didn't thrill us,
They locked the doors and tried to kill us.
But we escaped from that gas,
And met Jar Jar and Boss Nass.
We took a Bongo from the scene,
And we went to Theed to see the Queen.
We all wound up on Tatooine,
That's where we found this boy.
Oh my, my
This here Anakin guy.
May be Vader,
Some day later,
Now he's just a small fry.
He left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye,
Saying 'soon I'm gonna be a Jedi,
Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi!'
Did you know this junkyard slave
isn't even old enough to shave,
but he can use the force, they say.
Oh, did you see him hittin on the Queen?
Though he's just nine and she's fourteen.
Yeah, he's probably gonna marry her, some day.
Well, I know he built C-3PO,
And I heard how fast his pod can go.
And we were broke, it's true,
So we made a wager or two.
Well, he was a pre-pubescent flyin' ace.
And the minute Jabba started off that race,
I knew who'd win first place,
Oh yeah, it was our boy!
We started singing:
Oh my, my
This here Anakin guy.
May be Vader,
Some day later,
Now he's just a small fry.
He left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye,
Saying 'soon I'm gonna be a Jedi,
Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi!'
Well, we finally got to Coruscant,
The Jedi council, we knew would want
To see how good the boy could be.
So we took him there and told a tale,
How his midi-chlorians were off the scale,
and he might fullfill that prophecy.
Oh, the council was impressed, of course,
Could he bring balance to the force?
They interviewed the kid,
Oh, training they forbid!
Because, Yoda sensed in him much fear
And Qui-Gon said, now listen here!
Just stick in your pointy ear,
I still, will train the boy!
He was singing:
Oh my, my
This here Anakin guy.
May be Vader,
Some day later,
Now he's just a small fry.
He left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye,
Saying 'soon I'm gonna be a Jedi,
Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi!'
We caught a ride back to Naboo,
'cause Queen Amidala wanted to,
I frankly would've liked to stay.
We all fought in that epic war,
And it wasn't long at all before,
Little hot-shot flew his plane and saved the day.
And in the end some Gungans died.
Some ships blew up
And some pilots fried.
A lot of folks were croakin',
The battle droids were broken!
And the Jedi I admire most,
Met up with Darth Maul, and now he's toast
I'm still here, and he's a ghost
I guess, I'll train the boy.
And I was singing:
Oh my, my
This here Anakin guy.
May be Vader,
Some day later,
Now he's just a small fry.
He left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye,
Saying 'soon I'm gonna be a Jedi,
Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi!'
We were singing:
Oh my, my
This here Anakin guy.
May be Vader,
Some day later,
Now he's just a small fry.
He left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye,
Saying 'soon I'm gonna be a Jedi
