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 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
  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
  May be 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"
    Did you know this junkyard slave
  Isn't even old enough to shave
  And he can use the Force, they say
  Ahh, do you see him hitting on the queen
  Though he's just nine and she's fourteen
  Yah, he's probably gonna marry her someday
  Well, I knew 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 prepubescent 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
  May be 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 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 interview 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
  May be 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
  May be 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
  May be 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"
