Star Wars

an a cappella tribute to John Williams

Description

LYRICS

[Close Encounters of the Droid Kind]

You must use the force (repeat ad nauseum)

[Raiders of the Lost Wookiee]

Long time ago, far far away (repeat)

Kiss a wookie, kick a droid

Fly the falcon through an asteroid

Till the princess is annoyed

This is spaceships, it's monsters, it's Star Wars, we love it!

Come and help me, Obi Wan

X-wing fighter and a blaster gun

Dance with Ewoks, oh what fun!

This is spaceships, it's monsters, it's Star Wars, we love it!

[Super Han]

Get in there you big, furry oaf

I couldn't care less what you smell

I take orders from only me

Maybe you'd like it back in your cell

Your Highness, your worshipfulness, your highness, your worshipfulness

No one cares if you upset a droid

(nobody cares if you upset a droid)

That's because droids don't tear your arms out of socket.

(nobody cares)

I suggest a new strategy: let the Wookie win

That's because nobody cares if you upset a droid.

[ET the DiscoTerrestrial]

Now we listen to Luke whining:

One more season... One more season... One more season... One more season...

I was gonna go to Tashi Station for power converters

Now I guess I'm going nowhere.

It just isn't fair.

[Jaws: the Wookiee]

Wooookie (repeat)

Someone move this walking carpet (repeat)

Kiss your brother, Kiss your brother (repeat)

Princess Leia

Well I guess you don't know anything about women.

Who's your daddy? (repeat)

[Jurassic Darth]

Luke, I'm your father

(That's not true!)

It is useless to resist

(My hand!)

Come with me my son, We will rule

(I'll never join you!)

Search your feelings it is true

So you have a twin sister

Who Obi Wan was wise to hide

(Is that Leia?)

If you will not turn

Then perhaps she will

Give in to your hate

You are mine

Long Long Long Time ago... Far Far Far Far Away

Long Long Long Time Ago, Far Far Far Away (repeat)

Kiss a wookie

Kick a droid

Fly the falcon

Through an asteroid

Till the princess is annoyed

(She's annoyed!)

This is spaceships, it's monsters, it's Star Wars, we love it, it's true

Episode 3

Coming to you

In 2005

So Let's go

(go go go to the movies)

Stand in line

(buy buy buy me some popcorn)

Cause it's al-

(please I'd like extra butter)

most the time

(Join the dark side...)

May the Force be with you all

John Williams is the man

Star Wars

Based on music by John Williams, words from the original Star Wars trilogy by George Lucas

Arranged by J.S. Slagowski and Bryant W. Smith, adapted by Tim Y. Jones

Premiered May 19, 1999 - the very night that Episode 1: The Phantom Jar-Jar opened in the United States.

It has been performed as a techno song twice.

For
a while, moosebutter was going to swap in other tunes and other words
to keep the piece more current; never happened. Sections considered:
tune of 'Schindler's List' with the words 'All we ask of the next movie
is no Jar-Jar Binks' (between Ep. II and III); a love theme to the
'Hold me like you did by the lake on Naboo' words and other
wretch-inducing bad dialogue between Anakin and what's-er-name.

Approximate number of times moosebutter has performed 'Star Wars' as of October 2008: 5,276,228,173.
