Verse 1
A long, long time ago, in a
galaxy far away, Naboo was under
an attack. And I thought
me and Qui-Gon Jin, 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, and 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
Chorus
Oh my, my this here Anakin guy,
maybe Vader Someday later now
he's just a small fry.
He left his home kissed his
mommy goodbye sayin' soon I'm
gonna be a Jedi'. Soon
I'm gonna be a Jedi'
Verse 2
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
fourteen, 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 Ooo he was a prepubescent
flying ace and the minute Jabba
started off that race I
knew who would win first place,
oh yes, it was, our boy,
we started singing'..
Chorus
Oh my, my this here Anakin guy,
maybe Vader Someday later now
he's just a small fry.
He left his home kissed his
mommy goodbye sayin' soon I'm
gonna be a Jedi'. Soon
I'm gonna be a Jedi'
Verse 3
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 a tale how his
midichlorians were off
the scale and he might fulfill
that prophecy. Well 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.
Chorus
Oh my, my this here Anakin guy,
maybe Vader Someday later now
he's just a small fry.
He left his home kissed his
mommy goodbye sayin' soon I'm
gonna be a Jedi. Soon
I'm gonna be a Jedi
Verse 4
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 hot
shot
flew his plane and saved the
day, and in the end some Gungans
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.
Chorus
Oh my, my this here Anakin guy,
maybe Vader Someday later now
he's just a small fry.
He left his home kissed his
mommy goodbye sayin' soon I'm
gonna be a Jedi. Soon
I'm gonna be a Jedi
Oh my, my this here Anakin guy,
maybe Vader Someday later now
he's just a small fry.
He left his home kissed his
mommy goodbye sayin' soon I'm
gonna be a Jedi.
