Shooting down a star
To Swinging on a Star
by Stephen Reponen
Would you like to shoot down a star,
carry fragments home in a jar.
You'd be better off than you are,
or would you rather be a Reb.
A Reb is a person who fights for his cause,
his thought of the Empire isn't good.
He's really scrawny and his face is crude,
his battle is furious and he'll mostly lose.
So if you want to die young and full of lead,
you may grow up to be a Reb!
Or would you like to shoot down a star,
carry fragments home in a jar.
You'd be better off than you are,
or would you rather be a Wook.
A Wook is an animal who's covered in hair,
his strength is mightier than a bear.
He has a bad temper and is rarely sad,
he'll rip your arm off if you get him mad!
So if you rather live in trees than write a book,
you may grow up to be a Wook!
Or would you like to shoot down a star,
carry fragments home in a jar.
You'd be better off than you are,
or would you rather be a Hutt.
A hutt is a species that is slimy and fat,
they rarely move around from where they sat.
They eat live froggies and smoke Tabana,
they mostly are rich and own a cabana.
So of you rather want to look like your own butt,
you may grow up to be a Hutt!
And all the destroyers are in a queue,
they're ready to shoot quite a few.
And the Death Star is getting warmed up,
you might be better than you are,
you could be shooting down a star!
YOU COULD BE SHOOTING DOWN A STAR!
