Do you think you’ll be the guy  
To make the queen of the angels sigh?

See that girl  
You’d better watch your step  
She’s going to break your heart in two  
It’s true

I wonder where she came from  
I wonder where she’s gotta go  
Who’s to say she’s single  
And who’s to say she’s on her own  
Girls like that don’t sleep alone  
(Alright here’s the thing, here’s the thing)

That girl is flawless, and I know I’m not the first one to think that  
And since I’m not the first, I sure won’t be the last  
I’d spend my whole life looking behind my back  
I just don’t think I’m up to that

If you see a faded sign by the side of the road  
It’s just sixteen miles to the love shack.

One for every time I should have stayed  
Should have wore my wedding ring

And I think it’s kinda funny  
Think it’s kinda sad  
The dreams in which I’m dying  
Are the best I’ve ever had.

Coming down the mountain

Billy had two big  
Caves for eyes,  
With a cliff for a jaw  
That would go up 'n down,  
And whenever it did,  
He’d puff out some dust,  
And hack up a boulder.

Knockin’ great big monstahs dead on their knees

Eight foot two, solid blue,  
Five transistors in each shoe,  
Has anybody seen my gal?  
Lucite nose, rust-proof toes,  
And when her antenna glows,  
She’s the cutest Martian gal!

I’m the urban spaceman, I’m intelligent and clean  
Know what I mean?  
I’m the urban spaceman, as a lover second to none  
It’s a lot of fun

I never let my friends down  
I’ve never made a boob  
I’m a glossy magazine, an advert in the tube

I’m the urban spaceman, baby; here comes the twist–  
I don’t exist.

A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away, Naboo was under an attack.  
And I thought me and Qui Gon Gin, 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 in Bosnas,  
We took a Bungo from the scene and we went to Fee to see the Queen,  
We all wound up on Tatooine, that’s where… we found… This boy.

Oh Star Wars,  
Nothing but Star Wars,  
Give me those Star Wars,  
Don’t let them end.

Oh Star Wars,  
If they should bar wars,  
Please let these Star Wars  
Stay.
