We caught a ride back to Naboo Cause Queen Amidala wanted to I frankly would’ve liked to stay We all fought in that epic war And it wasn’t long at all before Little Hotshot flew his plane and saved the day And in the end some Gungans died Some ships blew up and some pilots fried A lot of folks were croakin’ The battle droids were broken And the Jedi I admire most Met up with Darth Maul and now he’s toast Well, I’m still here and he’s a ghost I guess I’ll train this boy And I was singin’, my my, this here Anakin guy May be Vader someday later, now he’s just a small fry And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye Sayin’ “Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi” We were singin’, my my, this here Anakin guy May be Vader someday later, now he’s just a small fry And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye Sayin’ “Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi” ---

The queen of diamonds let you down, She was just an empty fable The queen of hearts you say you never met Your twisted fate has found you out And it’s fin’lly turned the tables Stole your dreams and paid you with regret Desperado (Is there gonna be anything left, is there gonna be anything?) You sealed your fate up a long time ago (Ain’t it hard when you’re all alone in the center ring?) Now there’s no time left to borrow (Is there gonna be anything left?) Only stardust (Maybe tomorrow) Maybe tomorrow Maybe tomorrow ---

One pill makes you larger, and one pill makes you small And the ones that mother gives you, don’t do anything at all Go ask Alice, when she’s ten feet tall And if you go chasing rabbits, and you know you’re going to fall Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar has given you the call And call Alice, when she was just small When the men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go And you’ve just had some kind of mushroom, and your mind is moving low Go ask Alice, I think she’ll know When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead And the white knight is talking backwards And the red queen’s off with her head Remember what the dormouse said Feed your head, feed your head ---

Hello, yeah, it’s been a while. Not much, how 'bout you? I’m not sure why I called, I guess I really just wanted to talk to you. And I was thinking maybe later on, We could get together for a while. It’s been such a long time, And I really do miss your smile. I’m not talking 'bout moving in, And I don’t want to change your life. But there’s a warm wind blowing the stars around, And I’d really love to see you tonight. ---
