(To Tom Leherer's "Irish Ballad")
About a maid I'll sing a song
Sing rickety-tickety-tin
About a maid I'll sing a song
Who liked her fanfic rather strong
Not only did her Sith do wrong
They did Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon Jinn
Gon Jinn, they did Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon Jinn
Her readers struggled to assess
Sing rickety-tickety-tin
Her readers struggled to assess
Which work showed more inventiveness
The one starring Vader in heels and a dress
Or the one with Luke and Rin-Tin-Tin
Tin-Tin, or the one with Luke and Rin-Tin-Tin
One story dealt with Yoda's past
Sing rickety-tickety-tin
One story dealt with Yoda's past
And how he felt strangely thrilled yet aghast
As the Sith revealed themselves at last
In Jedi Celebrity Skin
-ty Skin, in Jedi Celebrity Skin
Her tour de force starred Luke and Han
Sing rickety-tickety-tin
Her tour de force starred Luke and Han
Who did Wedge, who did Leia, who did Obi-Wan
Who did Bossk, who did Maul, who did Admiral Thrawn
Who did Jabba who did Saesee Tiin
-see Tiin, who did Jabba who did Saesee Tiin
Her wicked ways she tried to mend
Sing rickety-tickety-tin
Her wicked ways she tried to mend
Writing Leia and Han, who wouldn't offend
If only Han hadn't arrived with a friend
Or invited the Rogue Squadron in
-dron in, or invited the Rogue Squadron in
When the lawyers' threats she finally saw
Sing rickety-tickety-tin
When the lawyers' threats she finally saw
Her fic she sadly did withdraw
Rather than disobey U.S. copyright law
For to violate that is a sin
A sin, to violate that is a sin.
I've reached the ending of my song
Sing rickety-tickety-tin
I've reached the ending of my song
The scandal I will not prolong
If you think that my subject was terribly wrong
Better wipe off that mischievous grin
-vous grin,
Better wipe off that mischievous grin
