Move Along

I stood at the gate, all crisp and steel

Armor all white, but my heart got peeled

Then that old desert man met my eyes

Said a few soft words, and I lost my mind

He waved his hand like he owned the sky

Next thing I knew, I was asking why

“These aren’t the droids you’re looking for”
And suddenly I’m nodding and agreeing

“These aren’t the droids we’re looking for”

Move along, move along

Waved ‘em right through like “looks fine to me”

Move along, move along

I got Jedi mind tricked
I let two fugitives walk on through

I got Jedi Mind Tricked
Obi Wan who?

I tried to salute, tried to stand my ground

But his calm little smile knocked my pride right down

I forgot the code, forgot my name

Forgot I was supposed to stay the same

I let a rebel slide through the side door slow

Then I waved real friendly like, “You can go”

My captain yelled, but I just gazed

Like a man in a daze with his brain misplaced

“These aren’t the droids you’re looking for”
And suddenly I’m nodding and agreeing

“These aren’t the droids we’re looking for”

Move along, move along

Waved ‘em right through like “looks fine to me”

Move along, move along

I got Jedi mind tricked
I let two fugitives walk on through

I got Jedi Mind Tricked
Obi Wan who?

One blink from him And I caved right in

My squad said, “Stop”

I said, “Not today”

That desert voice Sent my will away

If one hand wave can do all this

What was the point of Order 66?

Move along, move along

I been fooled all week (move along)

Now I’m marching to the beat (move along)

Move along, move along

Waved ‘em right through like “looks fine to me”

I got Jedi mind tricked
I waved goodbye like a broken fool

I got Jedi Mind Tricked
Obi Wan who?
