I met him in a swamp down in Dagobah
|
where it bubbles all the time
|
like a giant carbonated soda,
|
S O D A, soda.
|
|
I saw the little runt/wimp 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 ben 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.
|
|
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.
|
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
|
Well, I left home just a week before,
|
and I've never ever been a Jedi before
|
but Obi-Wan he set me straight of course,
|
He said, "Go to Yoda and he'll show you the Force."
|
|
Well, I'm not the kind that'll argue with Ben
|
So it looks I'm gonna start all over again
|
with my Yoda,
|
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
|
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,
|
Well I stood on my head,
|
Well I won't 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.
|
|
"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 Yoda, I guess.
|
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
|
I'll be playing this part till I'm old and grey.
|
|
The Long-term contract I hadda sign
|
says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
|
with my Yoda
|
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
|
Yoda
|
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
