Paper ticket in my hand, popcorn warm and sweet The screen lights up, a crawl begins, my heart skips every beat Tatooine sands and twin suns glow, Luke’s far from home tonight I’m just a kid in bell-bottom jeans, lost in a galaxy of light R2’s beeps and C-3PO’s chatter Lightsabers hum and the crowd grows madder Han shoots first, then runs for the door Obi-Wan waves, "Not the droids you are looking for." [Chorus] I saw Star Wars in the theatre, seventy-seven The opening crawl, a million worlds spun I felt the Force like the breeze in my hair Felt like I was flying through hyperspace there Stormtroopers march, but their aim is off Leia smirks with that classic scoff Millennium Falcon slides through space Chewie roars and I cheer in place Cantina band plays that jazzy tune Greedo stares but I know Han shoots soon Death Star shadows across the sky I gasp, I laugh, I almost cry Lights flicker, blasters collide Yoda’s not yet shown, but the myth won’t hide I’m just a kid, but I feel so vast Every "I have a bad feeling" makes my heart beat fast [Chorus] I saw Star Wars in the theatre, seventy-seven The opening crawl, a million worlds spun I felt the Force like the breeze in my hair Felt like I was flying through hyperspace there Hyperspace there Leia’s braid, Vader’s mask Death Star plans in a hidden flask X-wings dive and the stars ignite I stayed in that dark room all night [Chorus] I saw Star Wars in the theatre, seventy-seven The opening crawl, a million worlds spun I felt the Force like the breeze in my hair Felt like I was flying through hyperspace there A long time ago, in the back row seat I found a galaxy that made life so sweet
