about

A parody of "Y.M.C.A." by the Village People, about the character 'Yoda' in "Star Wars: Episode VI: Return Of The Jedi".

lyrics

Whoa man! Found out Vader's my dad.
I say, oh man! Han got stuck in a slab,
but I saved him… and my friends from Jabba.
There's no need to be unhappy.
And now, there's a place I must go.
Keep a promise… to a guy you all know,
and I'll show him, I meant it when I said, I
would Return of the Jedi.

(Spoken:) "Woo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo!"

I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
He knows everything about wrong and right.
You can become a Jedi knight.
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
To avoid the dark side is the path he'll endorse,
He'll teach you to use the force.

"Young man, listening to me are you?"
He said, "young man, I'm nine hundred and two."
He said, "young man, you need no more training,
But you got to do this one thing:
Vader… You must face him you see,
And only then, a Jedi will you be."
Then his last words were a real shocker.
"There is another Skywalker."

(Spoken:) Leia's my sister?

I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
He knows everything about wrong and right.
You can become a Jedi knight.
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
To avoid the dark side is the path he'll endorse,
He'll teach you to use the force.

Next came, a very big surprise.
Poor old Yoda, who's so old and so wise,
He just faded right before my own eyes
like he was beamed on the Enterprise.
That's when Obi-Wan came to me
And said, young man, go get Vader for me
and George Lucas. Re-release it for yuks,
make four-hundred-million more bucks!

(Spoken:) "Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine!"

I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
He can make some more cash, for George Lucas's bank.
He has all the fanboys to thank.
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.! "Woo hoo hoo hoo!
Don't underestimate all the things you can do,
And may the force be with you!"
…Y.O.D.A.!
I go to learn from the Y.O.D.A.!

(Spoken:) "Woo hoo hoo! Macho, macho man! A macho man, want to be I! Woo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo!…"
