The Saga Begins (Lyrical Adaption of "American Pie")

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
 We escaped from that gas
 Then 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
 Maybe Vader someday later, now he's just a small fry
 He left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
 Sayin', "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
 Ahh, do you see him hitting on the queen
 Though he's just nine and she's 14
 Yeah, he's probably gonna marry her someday
 Well, I know he built C-3PO
 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 flyin' 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 singin'
 My, my this here Anakin guy
 Maybe Vader someday later, now he's just a small fry
 And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
 Sayin', "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 midichlorians 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
 All 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's just a small fry
 And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
 Sayin', "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 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
 Well, I'm still here, and he's a ghost
 I guess I'll train this boy
 And I was singin'
 My, my this here Anakin guy
 Maybe Vader someday later, now he's just a small fry
 And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
 Sayin', "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
 Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi
 We were singin'
 My, my this here Anakin guy
 Maybe Vader someday later, now he's just a small fry
 And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
 Sayin', "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
