Lyrics

If I was Han Solo
Then you?d be my Leia
And life would be grand

You?d find me at a bar in Mos Isley
Wasting a Rodian
With the wave of my hand

But I?ll never be
Even half as cool as he
And even if I
Flew the Kessel run faster than that guy
Then I?d still be parsecs and parsecs away from cool

And if I was as cool as Han Solo
You?d tell me you love me
And I would say "I know"

Call me a scoundrel
Call me a rebel
Call me your captain
Call me your Nerf Herder
Call me your pilot
Call me your man
(but don?t call me HAAAN)

Freeze me in carbon
Take all my spice
Trade me for copious credits
To a guy who is only one chromosome shy of a slug
And I still wouldn?t be half as cool as Han Solo

If I had a wookie
Next to me I?d be
So much more credible
Trying to get you
To put on these edible
Underpants

Cause I?ll never be
Even half as cool
I?m always the fool
Wearing the black vest
Looking for Leia
Dreaming of you

If I was Han Solo
You?d tell me you love me
And I'd just say "I know"
