"But Han and Leia will die if I don't!" "You don't know that. Not even Yoda can see their fate" ... "Artoo? Fire up the converters." - HAN: Electrocution, don't it Make you wanna scream... (repeat chorus). *** MOISTURE FARM DE OWEN (sung by C-3PO to the tune of "Hotel California") - On a hot desert planet (I was not quite sure where) Smell of bantha fodder Rising up through the air. Up ahead in the distance, I saw a flickering light. I threw my arms up and I yelled real loud, A Sandcrawler was in sight! - I woke up inside the transport, And hit my head with a BONK! They got a lotta pretty, pretty droids, (One called "Gonk"). Then they opened the hatchway ("Step down . . . watch your head.") The two guys standing there were buying me. That's when the little one said: - "Welcome to the Moisture Farm de Owen. Such a boring place (such a boring place) Wish I was in space. Plenty of room at the Moisture Farm de Owen Any time of year (any time of year) It's hot as hell in here." - Artoo went looking for Obi, (But boy, that oil bath felt good) When Luke got pummeled he was rescued By this old coot in a hood. Then we found all those Jawas, dead by their van. "These marks, too accurate for Sandpeople . . . Musta been Darth Vader's plan." - Welcome to the Moisture Farm de Owen Such a lengthy trip (such a lengthy trip) Burned to a crisp. There's smoke rising out of the Moisture Farm de Owen "Where's my Aunt and Unc? . . . (where's my aunt and unc) Oh, they're now defunct." - (slows down) - When Luke came back from the homestead, He really looked pretty glum. "You would've been killed as well, Luke . . . There's nothing you could have done." So we went to Mos Eisley, To try and hitch us a ride. That's when we met up with Han Solo, and a Big hairy oaf by his side! - (bongo riff, speeds up) - Last thing I remember, I was Hiding behind a door. I had to find a passage back to Docking Bay 94. "Blip blip," said the spy man, and the Troopers gathered around. They started shooting at our pilot . . . We couldn't get off the ground!!! - (long guitary ending) *** Battle Hymn of the Dark Horde (Tune - Battle Hymn of the Republic) - Mine eyes have seen the coming of the terrible Darth Horde. They are searching out the cellars where your vintage wines are stored. They have loosed the fearful lightnings of their lightsabers and swords, The Darth Horde marches on. - Chorus: Glory, glory to Lord Vader! Glory, glory to the Raiders! Here we come with our lightsabers! The Darth Horde marches on! - I have seen them in the Death Star marching through the corridors! They have built a reputation as the villians in "Star Wars." Now they're coming to your planet - it wont help to lock the doors The Darth Horde marches on. - Chorus - Now you may fear the Empire but the Horde is ten times worse! Better call your undertaker and reserve yourself a hears. Today we'll take your planet - tomorrow the universe! The Darth Horde marches on. - Chorus - (Half Tempo) From the ashes of the Clone Wars there arose one Jedi Knight Wearing armor black as chaos with a sword a-blazin' light. As we know the left hand pillar must balance out the right, The Darth Horde marches on. - Chorus *** Blast, Loot, Pillage, Burn (Tune- Mickey Mouse Club Theme) - Blast, loot, pillage, burn, blast, loot, pillage, burn. Who's the leader of the Horde that's made for what we are? Lord D-A-R-T-H-V-A-D-E-R! Hey there, hi there, ho there! We'll conquer every star! Lord D-A-R-T-H-V-A-D-E-R! - Darth Vader!

I'm very well acquainted too, with matters mathematical, I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical, About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news -- With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypoteneuse - CHORUS With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypoteneuse (X3) - THREEPIO I'm very good at integral and differential calculus, I know the scientific names of beings animalculous; In short, my masters find in me a reason to be overjoyed, I am the very model of a modern diplomatic droid. - CHORUS In short his masters find in he, etc. - THREEPIO I am the very model of a modern diplomatic droid; Adventure is the sort of thing I'd hoped that I could quite avoid, For droids who find adventure often find that they get melted down , Or shipped out to the Kessel mins and tiresome labour underground. My counterpart excels at making trouble for the rest of us, He lured me to the desert where the jawas soon molested us, They sold us to some farmers, and before the passing of a day, I had to tell my master that the little twerp had run away - CHORUS He had to tell etc. (X3) - THREEPIO Now that were on the Death Star, and stormtroopers swarm the prem ises, I'm hiding in the closet with that little Artoo nemesis; And so I want to make it clear 'ere Artoo gets us both destroyed. I was the very model of a modern diplomatic droid. - CHORUS And so he wants to make it clear 'ere Artoo gets them both destroy ed, He was the very model of a modern diplomatic droid. *** Introduction (to the tune of "Cabaret") - We've got explosions and ray guns galore-- Killing's improved, you see; Come to the Galaxy my friend, Come to the Galaxy! *** "Darth Vader" (to the tune of "Maria") - Darth Vader! I've just met a man named Darth Vader! *** "A Second-Hand Droid" (to the tune of "My Favorite Things") - JAWA (to Luke): Here's a humdinger from southern Polaris. Wipes off your porch while he cleans off your terrace. If you're neurotic he'll read up on Freud; That's what we've got in a second-hand droid! If your workers join a union-- And they raise their fee-- Just flick on the switch of a second-hand droid, And you'll get your work done free! If [? ? ? ? ? ? ?] And you hate your wife-- Just flick on the switch of a second-hand droid, And you'll have a friend for life! *** "R2-D2's message" (to the tune of Do,Re,Mi) - R2 and 3PO: *BEEP* That's "hi" in robot talk; *BOOP* He's brought an S.O.S. *BLIP* The Princess needs your help-- *BLOOP* She's really in a mess! ????? ?????????????????????????? *ZLACK* She's on the Star of Death! *YECCH* Darth Vader has bad breath! And that brings us back to *BEEP* [dialogue:] Luke: "Being a backwater farm boy, I really don't know much abou t the outside world...What's a Death Star?" Ben: "It is a terrible, fearsome space fortress, where the Empi re is holding Princess Leia, a very beautiful girl." Luke: "What's a girl?" *** "Bad, Bad Vader Man" to "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown" by Jim Croce Well, the South Side of the Empire is the baddest part of space, And if you fly in there you better just beware of the man with the plastic face. Darth Vader's more than trouble, you see he's taller than six foot four; All the rebel folk call him "Big Black Ugly", all the Troopers just call him Lord. (chorus) And he's bad, bad, Vader man, Lord of the Sith, got it all in his hand; Yeah, when you hear him wheeze it can make your whole soul freeze! Now Solo was a gambler who with the Empire came to blows, Cause he liked to shoot his blaster-beams in front of every Trooper's nose. He got a custom-crafted starship, he got a furry Wookiee too, he got a black laser-gun at his hip for fun... but there was nothing he could do. (chorus) Cause that bad, bad Vader man Came to Bespin and he grabbed poor Han; Boba Fett took Solo away, and Vader laughed and wheezed all day. And somewhere off on Dagobah, Luke, he had a dream; Heard about his friends and was off to Bespin, so mad that he could scream. Well, he found him old Lord Vader, and the trouble soon began, Cause Skywalker, he learned a lesson 'bout messin with the sword of a Jedi man! (chorus) Oh that bad, bad Vader man Came walkin in all dark and grand; Said that he was Luke's dad... if it's true, that's oh so sad! Well the two men took to fighting, and when Luke went sliding down, A part of him stayed behind with Vader way up in that cloudy town. (chorus) He met bad bad Vader man.. Oh he was Luke's Dad, but he took Luke's hand! You can watch him fly away, but you know he'll be back some day.. Yeah, you can watch Vader fly away, but you know he'll come back some day! *** STAR WARS LAND (sung to the theme of Gilligan's Island) By: Daniel Brock - Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale A tale of a blonde-haired boy That started on an old sand planet And ended with a joy - The hero, son of the enemy His friends were dangerous They set across the galaxy To fight for the Rebel Alliance - - The battle started getting rough The hero lost his hand If not for the force and his dad's good side Our hero would be damned, Our hero would be damned - The friends met later in a tall tree house Somewhere called Endor - With Luke Skywalker Han Solo, too Princess Leia and Chewbacca, C3PO, Lando and R2D2 - Here in Star Wars land. ***
