LYRICS:
I think it’s about time that I walk away, walk away
So I turn around to walk away but then I look back
Sad lady make me turn and walk away again
Even though it looks like it’s the future
It’s really a long, long, time ago
When there were knights
And they got into fights
Using sabers of light
Please remember
Even though some things look so familiar
They’re not really on Earth
Yeah, it’s a galaxy far, far away
Alien DNA walking ‘round every day
And no one notices
Well, I messed up
Yeah, I made a mistake
I can’t sleep
Have to find your place soon
My tailor’s awesome
All the people looking
Rolling like I’m platinum
You know I’ve gone a long way to
change my mind about us since I seen you
But I’m talking at my robot as you mill about the city
And I’m on my way
Girl, there’s something that you need to know
Even though it looks like it’s the future
It’s really a long, long, time ago
When there were knights
And they got into fights
Using sabers of light
Just remember
Even though some things look so familiar
They’re not really on Earth
Yeah, it’s a galaxy far, far away
Alien DNA walking ‘round every day
And no one notices
Ahhhh, space station blown away
(It’s not the future)
Ahhhh, floating in the diaper tank
(It’s not the future)
Ahhhh, space leprechaun fade away
(It’s not the future)
Ahhhh, cyborg with no big boy words to say
(It’s not the future)
Get turnt
Get real turnt
Get turnt
Get, get real turnt
Well I’m a jaywalker
Got a lot of fresh damage, oh no
I can’t always be around to
Explore foreign love
Overflowing for your love
At night I’m sure that when we argue
makes me dream about those demon fishies
It’s not the way that it’s meant to be and
I bless your outfit
Mmmm, that’s a good choice
What is he saying? I don’t understand
Listen girl
I hope the heartbreak leaves me on the weekend
Even though it looks like it’s the future
It’s really a long, long, time ago
When there were knights
And they got into fights
Using sabers of light
Just remember
Even though some things look so familiar
They’re not really on Earth
Yeah, it’s a galaxy far, far away
Alien DNA walking ‘round every day
It’s a place where
Little furry creatures dance but they’re not teddy bears
They’re an alien equivalent
And they may rage in familiar trees
But it’s not the Redwoods you see
Alien trees on an alien moon, oh-oh
It’s something else indeed
Alien trees on an alien moon, oh-oh
Time to break it down
Break it down, down, down, down
Yeah, I was big in Japan
I was king of Ping Pong
Yeah I was bad at tuba
And I’m sure you’d like me to bounce
Master, I need one of these
Do they come in threes?
‘cause I need to squeeze them
Yeahhh
Yeah, I was big in Japan
I was king of Ping Pong
Yeah I was bad at tuba
And I’m sure you’d like me to bounce
Sometimes that moment when you wish you could run and hide
Is when you find you need a new hyperdrive
We all sometimes wish we could get away
And if you try
Then you gotta just make sure if you hide in a cave that it’s
Really not some giant space snake
Even though it looks like it’s the future
It’s really a long, long, time ago
When there were knights
And they got into fights
Using sabers of light
Just remember
Even though some things look so familiar
They’re not really on Earth
Yeah, it’s a galaxy far, far away
Alien DNA walking ‘round every day
And no one notices
Even though it looks like it’s the future
It’s really a long, long, time ago
When there were knights
And they got into fights
Using sabers of light
Just remember
Even though some things look so familiar
They’re not really on Earth
Yeah, it’s a galaxy far, far away
Alien DNA walking ‘round every day
And no one notices
Get turnt
Get real turnt
Get turnout
Get, get real turnt
It’s not the future
Get turnt
Get real turnt
Get turnt
Get, get real turnt
It’s not the future

Chewy doing the “Ahhhh” gets me every time. Genius.
-
This is unironically a great tribute song to Star Wars as a whole
-
Okay, so obviously, this is a funny song. But can we just appreciate the fact that the chorus legitimately succeeds at capturing the essence of what makes Star Wars magical?
-
Why am I getting emotional with this song like bro. This is an awesome tribute to the star wars saga
-
"When there was Knights, and they got into fights, using sabers of light" something about that plucks the strings deep deep down inside my soul
-
The C3PO bit has to be the best opening to any song ever. Seriously.
-
The fact I keep coming back to this track must attest to its greatness or my insanity. Such a classic.
-
"I bless your outfit, mmhhhmm that's a good choice" is so cheeky I love it
-
Is it just me, or are these legitimately great songs...
-
Whoever does the music for these needs to make an actual serious music album. They're awesome.
-
I'm not sure if it's Chewie's epic harmonies or the fact they randomly gave threepio an Indian accent. This song is a very well put together song production wise. Better than a lot of songs that make it to the pinnacle of charts, the fact its lovingly paying homage in a cheeky manner to a franchise I adore just makes it so special, thank you creators x
-
“Spaces leprechaun fade away” “Cyborg with no big boy word to say” “Floating in the diaper tank” This is a real masterpiece.
-
Indian C3PO is probably the funniest thing i've ever seen.
-
These songs from Bad Lip Reading are better than anything on the radio at the moment.
-
2022 and this is still some of the best produced pop noir I've ever heard. Not to mention genius-level editing. 10/10. Where my 2022 people at?
-
"Rollin' like I'm platinum" is kinda a fire lyric. Truly got the drip.
-
BRO CHEWBACCA SINGING THAT FIRST NOTE HAD ME DEAD
-
The music industry wishes they could compose shit this good.
-
The way he sings the words "future" and "familiar " still gives me goosebumps. In love with his voice! ❤ This song just stays in your head, then weeks later it'll pop back in, right out of the blue, striking you. Then you MUST hear it again at full volume! Or it could just be me...
-
The chorus gives me chills every time
