Weird Al Yankovic - Star Wars 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 Jin

Could talk the federation into maybe cutting them a little Slack

But their response, it didn't thrill us

They locked the doors and tried to kill us

We escaped from that gas

And met Jar Jar in Bosnas

We took a bongo from the scene

And 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 Annakin guy

Maybe Vader someday later

Now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mummy 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

Ah, do you see him hitting on the Queen?

Though he's just nine

And she's fourteen

Yeah, he's probably going to marry her some day



Well I know he built C3PO

And I've heard how fast his pod can go

And we were broke, it's true

So we made a wager or two



He was a pre-pubescent flying ace

And the minute Jabba started off that race

Well, I knew who would win first place

Oh yes, it was our boy



We started singing:



My, my this here Annakin guy

Maybe Vader someday later

Now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mummy goodbye

Saying "Soon, I'm gonna be a Jedi"

"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi."



Now 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 we told the tale

How his midichloreans readings were off the scale

And he might fulfill that prophesy



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 Quigon said "Now listen here

Just stick it in your pointy ear

I still will teach this boy



He was singing:



My, my this here Annakin guy

Maybe Vader someday later

Now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mummy 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 Amadala wanted to

I frankly would have liked to stay

We all fought in that epic war

And it wasn't long at all before

Little hotshot flew his plane

And saved the day



And in the end some gunguns 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 this boy



And I was singin':



My, my this here Annakin guy

Maybe Vader someday later

Now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mummy goodbye

Saying "Soon, I'm gonna be a Jedi"

"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi."



We were singing:



My, my this here Annakin guy

Maybe Vader someday later

Now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mummy goodbye

Saying "Soon, I'm gonna be a Jedi"

"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi."
