lyrics

TAUNTAUNS TO GLORY

I dreamed that I was on the ice-world Hoth
And high above in orbit was our Imperial foe
And they sent down their crazy elephant-walking machinery of death
So we saddled up our Tauntauns to meet them in the snow -- and we were

Chorus:
Riding, riding our Tauntauns to glory
Riding our Tauntauns to glory (Repeat)

Now, if the tree-huggers have their way
And our SUVs are rusting in the salvage yard
I hope the geneticists make some Tauntauns out of recombinant DNA
'Cause then life in the new ice age might not be so hard -- and we'll be

Chorus

When you venture out, riding on your Tauntaun
Be careful not to stay out too long in the night
Or you might want to take a pop-up igloo and survival kit
So you won't have to cut up your Tauntaun and spend the night inside -- 'cause we'd rather be
