[中文]

很久很久以前

在一个遥远的星系

纳布星正遭受攻击

我和奎刚·金都认为

可以说服联邦

也许给他们一点宽松

但他们的回应让我们失望

他们锁上了门，试图杀了我们

我们从那气体中逃了出来

然后遇到了贾贾和纳斯老板

我们从现场拿了一辆邦戈

然后去了提德见女王

我们最终都到了塔图因

在那里我们找到了这个男孩...

哦，我的天，这个阿纳金家伙

将来可能会成为维达 - 现在他只是个小角色

他离开了家，吻别了妈妈

说：“我很快就要成为绝地”

“我很快就要成为绝地”

你知道这个废品场的奴隶

甚至还不够年龄刮胡子

但他们说他能使用原力

啊，你看到他在追求女王吗

虽然他只有九岁，而她十四岁

是的，他可能将来会娶她

好吧，我知道他造了C-3PO

我听说他的飞船速度很快

而我们确实很穷

所以我们打了几场赌

他是个青春期前的飞行王牌

而贾巴一开始那场比赛

我知道谁会赢得第一名

哦，是的，那是我们的男孩

我们开始唱...

我的天，这个阿纳金家伙

将来可能会成为维达 - 现在他只是个小角色

他离开了家，吻别了妈妈

说：“我很快就要成为绝地”

“我很快就要成为绝地”

现在我们终于到了科洛桑

我们知道绝地委员会会想

看看这个男孩有多优秀

所以我们带他去那里，讲述了这个故事

他的中微子数量超出了标准

他可能会实现那个预言

哦，委员会当然很印象深刻

他能给原力带来平衡吗？

他们面试了这个孩子

哦，他们禁止训练

因为尤达感受到他内心的恐惧

奎刚说：“现在听着”

“把它放进你尖尖的耳朵里”

“我仍然会教这个男孩”

他在唱...

我的天，这个阿纳金家伙

将来可能会成为维达 - 现在他只是个小角色

他离开了家，吻别了妈妈

说：“我很快就要成为绝地”

“我很快就要成为绝地”

我们搭车回到纳布

因为阿米达拉女王想要

老实说，我本来想留下

我们都在那场史诗般的战争中战斗

没过多久

小热血飞行员驾驶他的飞机拯救了局面

最后一些甘干人死了

一些飞船爆炸，一些飞行员被炸

很多人都死去

战斗机器人被摧毁

而我最钦佩的绝地

与达斯·摩尔相遇，现在他已经完蛋

好吧，我还在这里，而他是个鬼魂

我想我会训练这个男孩

我在唱...

我的天，这个阿纳金家伙

将来可能会成为维达 - 现在他只是个小角色

他离开了家，吻别了妈妈

说：“我很快就要成为绝地”

“我很快就要成为绝地”

我们在唱...

我的天，这个阿纳金家伙

将来可能会成为维达 - 现在他只是个小角色

他离开了家，吻别了妈妈

说：“我很快就要成为绝地”

A long, long time ago

In a galaxy far away

Naboo was under an attack

And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn

Could talk the federation into

Maybe cutting them a little slack

But their response, it didn't thrill us

They locked the doors and tried to kill us

We escaped from that gas

Then met Jar Jar and Boss Nass

We took a bongo from the scene

And we went to Theed to see the Queen

We all wound up on Tatooine

That's where we found this boy...

Oh my my this here Anakin guy

May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye

Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

Did you know this junkyard slave

Isn't even old enough to shave

But he can use the Force, they say

Ah, do you see him hitting on the queen

Though he's just nine and she's fourteen

Yeah, he's probably gonna marry her someday

Well, I know he built C-3PO

And I've heard how fast his pod can go

And we were broke, it's true

So we made a wager or two

He was a prepubescent flyin' ace

And the minute Jabba started off that race

Well, I knew who would win first place

Oh yes, it was our boy

We started singin' ...

My my this here Anakin guy

May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye

Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

Now we finally got to Coruscant

The Jedi Council we knew would want

To see how good the boy could be

So we took him there and we told the tale

How his midi-chlorians were off the scale

And he might fulfill that prophecy

Oh, the Council was impressed, of course

Could he bring balance to the Force?

They interviewed the kid

Oh, training they forbid

Because Yoda sensed in him much fear

And Qui-Gon said "Now listen here"

"Just stick it in your pointy ear"

"I still will teach this boy"

He was singin' ...

My my this here Anakin guy

May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye

Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

We caught a ride back to Naboo

'Cause Queen Amidala wanted to

I frankly would've liked to stay

We all fought in that epic war

And it wasn't long at all before

Little Hotshot flew his plane and saved the day

And in the end some Gungans died

Some ships blew up and some pilots fried

A lot of folks were croakin'

The battle droids were broken

And the Jedi I admire most

Met up with Darth Maul and now he's toast

Well, I'm still here and he's a ghost

I guess I'll train this boy

And I was singin' ...

My my this here Anakin guy

May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye

Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

We were singin' ...

My my this here Anakin guy

May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry

And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye

Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
