I can’t believe I never posted this before. Over on Colden’s forum, I had a thread in which I wrote lyrics about any theme someone wanted to any tune anyone wanted. No Morpho, Only Bánh mì asked for one based on Return of the Jedi, which I’d just seen, and I was more than happy to oblige.
To John Williams’ Star Wars theme:
From the…
forests of Endor
to the surrender
of evil’s domain…
From the…
command of Ackbar
to the new Death Star
runs our campaign…
Dark forces try to triumph over us,
our men and fleet they will assail…
But never will they triumph over us…
for the Force is on our side and we’ll prevail!
…
From the…
Tattoine deserts
to Hothian outskirts
we’re fighting at large…
Traps they…
may put down to gall us,
but they’ll not stall us—
now on the charge!
… [musical break]
Right has…
triumphed at long last;
evil is outcast
into the flames!
We have…
finished the good fight,
restored the good light,
accomplished our aims!
Yoda and Ben Kenobi
are looking over us with praise…
They are now joined by one more hero
who at long last turned his back on evil’s ways!
Now there…
has come a new peace,
a certain and true peace,
to the galaxy…
And we…
have finished the old wars,
will search for the new stars,
and—at last—all will be free!
