[net.movies.sw] Yoda song

iy160@sdccsu3.UUCP (05/31/83)

Here is the Lyric to the YODA song that somebody requested a while ago.
It is from an unreleased tape by "Wierd Al Yankovich" (sp?). It is also
copyright WAY, most likely, though I am not sure. You can probably here it if
you listen to the Dr. Demento Show long enough. All of Wierd Al's songs are 
extremely funny, so check 'em out if you get a chance. This song should
be sung to the tune of "Lola" by The Kinks.


				Yoda


I met him in a bog down in Degobah
Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda
S-O-D-A, soda
I saw a little runt sitting there on a log
I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said:
Yoda, Y-O-D-A, Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda

Well I've been around but I ain't never seen 
A guy who looks like a muppet but he's wrinkled and green
Oh my Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo, Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda
Well I'm not dumb, but I can't understand 
How he can lift me in the air, just by raising his hand 
Oh my Yoda, Y-O-D-A, Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda

Well I left home just a week before
And I never ever been a Jedi before
But Obi Wan, he set me straight o' course
He said go to Yoda and he'll show you the force.
Well I'm not the kind that would argue with him
So it looks like I'm gonna start all over again
With my Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda

So I used the Force
I picked up a box
I lifted some rocks
While I stood on my head
Well I wont forget what Yoda said 
He said, "Luke stay away from the darker side,
And if you start to go astray let the Force be your guide."
Oh my Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
"Well I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed,
But remember if you kill him then you'll be unemployed."
Oh my Yoda Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda

Well I heard my friends really got in a mess.
So I'm gonna have to leave my Yoda, I guess.
But I know that I'll be comin' back someday;
I'll be playin' this part 'till I'm old and gray,
Cuz a long term contract I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies 'till the end of time
With my Yoda, Y-O-D-A Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo- Yoda

Yoda, Y-O-D-A Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda
(Repeat and fade)
