Lyrics:

I read the news today, oh boy
About the army of Imperials
Count Dooku cloned me from a Fett
My personality was set
A clone with no regrets
I spend my evenings all alone
With endless rounds of spider solitaire
The ring of blasters in my ears
I forget what that means
Pretty sure this plastic armor wasnt money wisely spent

I saw my dad today, oh boy
He looked exactly like I thought he would
A group of troopers all the same
Some color would be nice
Seafoam should suffice
Darth is my copilot

Woke up got out of bed
Took a dump and shined my head
Everyday at work I run about
Corridors in always the same route
Found some rebels in the midst
Of a heist of Vaders ship
Snuck around and saw a Jedi Knight
Then somebody spoke and I learned it was a trap
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

The second Death Star went KABOOM!
Four thousand pieces in the starry sky
And now Im looking for new work
Including dental perks
Looking in the classifieds can make a trooper go berserk
I hate my life!
