GIVE US SOME STAR WARS To the tune of "Gimme Some Lovin'"
with apologies to the Spencer Davis Group


Fox's stock is rising.
Episode One's coming soon.
All the toys and tie-ins
Are a merchandising boon.
Construction sets and figures
And new vehicles galore.
They hope collectors drop a wad
At every single store.

And they're
So glad he made it.
So glad George made it.
Want us to
Give 'em some money (give 'em, give 'em some money)
Give 'em some money (give 'em, give 'em some money)
Give 'em some money out of our pay.

The trailer on the website
Brought a million hits a day.
It's the movie of the decade,
So the sales brochures say.
But there's money to be made
Before a single scene is shown.
The fans will pay to have a piece
Of Star Wars for their own.

And they're
So glad he made it.
So glad George made it.
Wants us to
Give him some money (give him, give him some money)
Give him some money (give him, give him some money)
Give him some money out of our pay.

The press is looking good.
Other films are running scared.
But if you want all of the toys
You'd better be prepared.
Forget about that brand new car
Or sending kids to school.
But don't rule out a home add-on,
Before your place gets full.

And we're
So glad he made it.
So glad George made it.
Want him to
Give us some Star Wars (give us, give us some Star Wars)
Give us some Star Wars (give us, give us some Star Wars)
Give us some Star Wars. Coming this May.
