lyrics

The Phantom Menace

Qui-Gon Jinn
I’m Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn
Work for myself take orders from within
Regarded as a maverick cause I think outside the box
Faithful to the Jedi Order but quite unorthodox
Down to earth, present in the moment, I endorse
Philosophical fighting, focusing on the living force
I am kind, for all life forms I have respect
But if you try to harm me, I’ll cut off your neck

Darth Maul
Name is Darth Maul I’m a dangerous Sith
Not the kind of enemy you want to mess with
I’m a Zabrak, my skin’s all red
Covered in tattoos, got horns on my head
I’ll cut a whole gang of Jedi knights in half
Using both blades of my lightsaber staff
I execute Jedi like Order 66
If I judge you worthy I let you die quick

Padme Amidala
People know me as Padme Amidala
I’m a Queen, I’m a Senator, I’m a shot caller
Fly a chromium covered star ship from Naboo
With the finest clothes and the best hair-do
I got down with Anakin before he was Vader
And that man knows how to use a lightsaber
Throughout the Galaxy I am known for my beauty
But I never put myself above my civic duty

Watto
I’m a Toydarian dealer named Watto
Betting with me’s like playing the lotto
Pay up now your not going to win
Come back tomorrow and try it again
If it’s not about business, I don’t want to talk
I can fly, you can take a walk
No need for friends I like being alone
My closest companions are slaves that I own

Sebulba
Podracing champ, Sebulba’s the name
Drive on a circuit that puts Nascar to shame
If you try to pass by my racer, I’ll end you
I don’t run a clean race and I don’t pretend to
Known to be reckless in the driver’s seat
Hands on the gas, while I steer with my feet
Even use a flamethrower when I want to bring the heat
First place every race even if I have to cheat

Jar Jar Binks
Mesa Gungan General, Jar Jar Binks,
Not so smart, but Mesa thinks
My a good soul, just clumsy control
So Mesa been in trouble since I was a tadpole
Swim like fish my a tongue like a frog
Mesa bill of a duck, my a ears of a dog
Like man’s best friend mesa there to the end
Yousa pleasea forgive my, if mesa offend
