Weird Al Yankovic - The Saga Begins lyrics

Album: Running With Scissors (1999)

A long, long time ago
In a galaxy far away
Naboo was under an attack
And I thought me & 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 & tried to kill us
We escaped from that gas
Then met Jar Jar & 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 is where we found this boy...

Oh my my, this here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader someday later - now he has just a small fry
And he left his home & kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin´ "Soon I am going to be a Jedi"
"Soon I am going to be a Jedi"

Did you know this junkyard slave
Is not even old enough to shave
But he can use the Force, they say
Ahh, do you see him hitting on the queen
Though he has just nine & she has fourteen
Yea, he has probably going to marry her someday
Well, I know he built C-3PO
And I have heard how fast his pod can go
And we were broke, it is true
So we made a wager or two
He was a prepubescent flyin´ ace
And the minute Jabba started off that race
Well, I knew who´d win 1st place
Oh yes, it was our boy

We started singin´...
My my, this here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader someday later - now he has just a small fry
And he left his home & kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin´ "Soon I am going to be a Jedi"
"Soon I am going to 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 & we told the tale
How his midi-chlorians were off the scale
And he might fulfill 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 it in your pointy ear
I still will teach this boy"

He was singin´...
My my, this here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader someday later - now he has just a small fry
And he left his home & kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin´ "Soon I am going to be a Jedi"
"Soon I am going to be a Jedi"

We caught a ride back to Naboo
´Cause Queen Amidala 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 & saved the day
And in the end some Gungans died
Some ships blew up & 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 & now he has toast
While I am still here & he has a ghost
I guess I will train this boy

And I was singin´...
My my, this here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader some day later - now he has just a small fry
And he left his home & kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin´ "Soon I am going to be a Jedi"
"Soon I am going to be a Jedi"

We were singin´...
My my, this here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader some day later, now he has just a small fry
And he left his home & kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin´ "Soon I am going to be a Jedi"
