BFD 2007 SING-ALONG!!!!!

Greetings fellow Star Warsians! It is now time for the traditional Balanced Force Day sing-along, 2007 edition! **These BFD songs are in NO WAY meant to demean our holidays here on Earth. I have great respect for all of these holidays and the traditions they carry with them. The songs posted here are all in good fun and are not meant to offend.**

BLOGGER CONTRIBUTIONS

From the Bodacious
GalacticBabe, to the tune of the Chipmunk Song:

(Obi-Wan conducts the yearly BFD program...)

Alright you Padawans! Ready to sing your song?
-I'll say we are!
-Yeah!
-Let's sing it now!
Okay, Barriss?
-Okay!
Okay, Ferus?
-Okay!
Okay, Anakin? Anakin? ANAKIN!
-OKAY!!!

BFD BFD time is near,
Time for droids and time for cheer.
We've been good, but we can't last,
Hurry BFD, hurry fast!
Want a ship that loops the loop,
Me, I want a shiny swoop
We can hardly stand the wait,
Please BFD, don't be late!

That was very good, Barriss.
-Naturally.
Very good Ferus.
-Ahhh.
Um, Anakin, you were a little flat, watch it.
Anakin? Anakin? ANAKIN!
-OKAY!!!

Want a ship that loops the loop,
I still want a shiny swoop!
We can hardly stand the wait,
Please BFD, don't be late.
We can hardly stand the wait,
Please BFD, don't be late!!!

Very good, younglings
-Let's sing it again!
-Yeah, lets sing it again!
No, That's enough, lets not overdo it
-What do you mean overdo it?
-We want to sing it again!
Now wait a minute, younglings
-Why can't we sing it again?
[Padawan chatter]
Anakin, cut that out. Barriss, just a minute.
Anakin will you cut that out?

YOUNGLINGS!!!!!

Program ends prematurely, an exasperated Obi-Wan walks off the stage...

From the Saberlicious
Jade, to the tune of Little Drummer Boy:

"Come," he told me. No lightsabers hummed.
"Take your saber and strike down me. Make your lightsaber hum."
I turned it on, bright green. My lightsaber hummed.
We crossed swords in front of Palpy. Our lightsabers hummed,
Hum hum
hum hum, hum hum hum hum.

I had to check my anger while my lightsaber hummed, or I was done.

"Come, my son Lukey." Our lightsabers hummed.
"The dark side's best you see." Our lightsabers hummed.
"No father, come with me." Our lightsabers hummed.
"Come to the light with me." Our lightsabers hummed.
Hum hum hum hum,
hum hum hum hum.

"I will not fight you, though your lightsaber hums." "Then you're done."

He threw his saber at me. It hum hum hum hummed.
Then we played hide and seek, while his lightsaber hummed.
He said he'd turn Leia, you see. His lightsaber hummed.
It made me really angry. I made my saber hum,
Hum hum hum hum, hum hum
hum hum.

So, I attacked him there. Our lightsabers hummed. I was almost done.

I'll not give in, though I could die. My saber ceased to hum.
"Then so be it, Jedi." Lightning crackled and hummed.
"Father, don't let me fry!" Lightning crackled and hummed.
Vader grabbed the wrinkly guy, while I looked on, Palpy screamed, and lightning hummed.

Vader threw him down while lightning hummed. Down the chasm.

Also from
Jade, to the tune of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer:

You know Windu, Kit Fisto, Plo Koon, and Gallia
Kenobi, Ki-Adi, Billaba, and Yoda.
But do you recall the most gorgeous Jedi of all?
Young Anakin Skywalker was the Jedi Chosen One
And if you ever saw him, into his strong arms you'd wanna run :D
All of the other Jedi didn't want him to be trained
They wouldn't take the chance that he might become a Sith like Darth Bane
Then when Qui-Gon got cremated, Obi-Wan came to say:
Anakin in the Force so strong, won't you be my padawan?
The Council finally gave in, but they didn't know that later
Young Anakin Skywalker would become the evil Darth Vader!

The Dark Lord Darth Vader
Was an evil Sith baddie
Luke would have never guessed that
He had a Sith Lord for a daddy
All of the noble Jedi
Had been hunted down by him
The future of the Jedi Order
Was looking rather grim
Then, making the first BFD
Young Luke came to say:
"Vader, inside you there's light.
Please ditch Palpy, he's such a fright!"
Then Palpy started to fry him,
And Luke cried out, "Father, please!"
So Vader picked up the Emperor
And threw him down the cavity!

From the super talented
Hansgirl, to the tune of White Christmas:

I'm dreaming of a white BFD
Just like the one we had on Hoth
Where the Tauntaun's frozen
Cuz he'd not chosen
To drink hot chocolate with froth

I'm dreaming of a white BFD
With each BFD card I write
May your days be warmer than mine
And may Balanced Force Day be white


Another from HG, to the tune of I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus:

I Saw Leia Kissing Han Solo (sung by 3PO)

I saw Leia kissing Han Solo
In that room aboard the ship last night
They didn't see me peep
'Round the corner I did creep
I thought the Princess might
Need me to save her from her plight
Then, I saw Leia holding Han Solo
'Round his neck and he held her so tight
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If Chewie had only seen
Leia kissing Han Solo last night


JP'S BFD CAROLS


Jedi Knight (Silent Night- click here!!!)

Jedi Knight, heroic Knight
Mind is calm, saber bright
Round yon Shmi, mother and child
Chosen One, yet so fearful and wild
Bring the galaxy peace
Bring the galaxy peace

Jedi Knight, heroic Knight
Padmé walks toward the light
Separated, on planets afar
Heirs of Force light, bright as a star
Luke and Leia are born!
Luke and Leia are born!

Jedi Knight, heroic Knight
Son of Ani, Force of Light
Taking off the mask to see his face
Bringing forth redeeming grace
Anakin’s rebirth
Anakin’s rebirth


Do You See What I See?

Said the pilot to the youngling boy,
“Do you see what I see?
Way up in the sky, youngling boy
Do you see what I see?
A ship, a ship, blasting in the night
With rays of vanishing light,
With rays of vanishing light.”

Said the youngling to the angel girl,
“Do you hear what I hear?
Ringing through the sky, angel girl,
Do you hear what I hear?
The crowd, the crowd cheering all for me
I’ll be great one day, you will see,
I’ll be great one day, you will see.”

Said the padawan to the Jedi Master,
“Do you feel what I feel?”
In your defiance, Jedi Master
Do you feel what I feel?
The Force, the Force clouded by the dark,
I don’t think this child is its spark,
I don’t think this child is its spark.”

Said the Master to the Jedi Council,
“Listen to what I say!
Let the boy be trained, Jedi Council,
Listen to what I say!
The child, the child standing in your sight,
He will bring the Force back to light,
He will bring the Force back to light.”


Pilots, From the Realms of Deep Space
(Angels, From the Realms of Glory)

Pilots, from the realms of deep space
Wing your flight o'er Endor's moon
Ye, who trained in simulations
Now proclaim true vict'ry soon
Come and blast them,
Come and blast them,
Blast them, the Imperial scum!

Soldiers in the Endor forest
Watching Ewoks dance by night
Force with all is now residing
(I sound just like Yoda, right?)
Come and blast them,
Come and blast them,
Blast them, the Imperial scum!

Leaders, leave your command stations
See the brightness of the sky?
Far beyond your expectations
You have seen the Emp’ror die!
Come and blast them,
Come and blast them,
Blast them, the Imperial scum!

Rebels, you’ve anticipated
Watching long in hope and fear
Now the Death Star’s detonated
Peace will surely follow near
Come and blast them,
Come and blast them,
Blast them, for the Light has won!



Carol of the Force (Carol of the Bells)

Hark! How the child
Sweet youngling child
Races with glee
“Yippee, yippee!”
Balanced Force Day
Is this child’s way
To make it right
Come back to light

* breathing noises, in beat *
That’s Vader’s sound
His heart was burned
But Luke would turn
He almost fried
“Father!” He cried
Vader contrite
Turned back to light!

Oh how he threw
Palps, down he flew
Over the rail
With a loud wail
Ewoks they dance
Han & Leia romance
Yub nub, good cheer
BFD is here
Happy, happy, happy
Balanced Force Day!
Happy, happy, happy
Balanced Force Day!

Oh, celebrate
This special date
Balanced Force cheer
Every year


The BFD Song-- Vader Roasting on an Open Pyre
(The Christmas Song)

Vader roasting on an open pyre
Ewoks dancing at your toes
Trooper helmets being played by the fire
And pilots dressed in orange clothes

Everybody knows a Death Star or a Hoth-like snow
Won’t hinder those who celebrate
Padawans with their sabers aglow
Will find it hard to meditate

They know that Wampa’s on his way
They’ll leave him goodies to keep his hunger at bay
And every youngling child is gonna spy
To see if AT-ATs really know how to fly

And so I’m sending out this transmission
To creatures from human to Acklay
It hasn’t been said many ways, well just one:
Happy Balanced Force Day.


Jedi Obi-Wan
(Good King Wenceslas)

Jedi Obi-Wan looked out
'Cross the desert planet
Sandstorms rolling round about
Eternity began it
Brightly shone the suns that day
Though they now were setting
Took the baby child away
They wouldn't be forgetting

Child began to learn and grow
Flourishing in youth
His real self he did not know
Sheltered from the truth
Heir to power great and strong
Chose One behind it
Wanting escape all along
But where would he find it?

Uncle Owen, answer me
If you know it telling:
Yonder hermit, who is he?
In his humble dwelling?
Luke, he's just a crazy man
You should just forget him
Trap you in some wizard's plan
He would if you let him

Circumstances tossed and turned
Just like storms of sand
As the twin suns hotly burned
Boy became a man
In Obi-Wan's step he trod
Righting past disasters
Even in ghostly facade
Remained a true master


Have Yourself a Happy Balanced Force Day
(Have Youself a Merry Little Christmas)

Have yourself a happy Balanced Force Day
Let the Force be light
From now on the Empire will be out of sight

Have yourself a happy Balanced Force Day
Sing & dance & play
From now on our Jedi Knights will lead the way

Here we are as in olden days, Old Republic days long passed
Faithful Rebels who gave your lives, victory arrives at last

Through the years we all will be together
If the Whills allow
We'll restore the galaxy someday, somehow
So have yourself a happy Balanced Force Day now

Droids, Droids, Droids
(Bells, Bells, Bells)

Droids, droids, droids
All they do is gripe
Droids, droids, droids
No matter what the type
Droids of every make and model
Droids that walk and droids that waddle
Providing help on the double
Or they could lead you to trouble

Droids, droids, droids
With irritating sound
Droids, droids, droids
When BFD's around
Droids when ships begin to crash
Droids you simply want to smash
Droids when fighting with a clone
Droids when you want to be alone!
On each and every world, unless it's been destroyed
You will hear
All too clear
Perplexing, vexing sounds of droids
