Gonna Dig Up Alec Guinness

(album: Damn Skippy - 2005)

Gonna dig up Alec Guinness
Gonna harvest Obi-Wan
Gonna put his body on display with his Jedi costume on

Gonna go down to the highway
Gonna build myself a sign
Gonna advertise to everyone, tell 'em where to form the line

Gonna build him some bionic robot limbs
Gonna code an electronic voice for him
So when the people come to glance him, he'll be singing songs and dancing
All right, all right
All right

Gonna dig up Alec Guinness
Gonna raise him from the dead
Gonna charge some nerds to swat their toy Lightsabers at his head

Gonna pull out all the stops now
Gonna do this, no remorse
Gonna show them all the meaning of "a great disturbance in the Force"

Gonna raise him up on wires above the land
Gonna have him launch some fireworks from his hands
And if police come knocking at my door, he'll say "These aren't the droids you're looking for"

I just got a letter saying that I better desist
Some legal mucus
Seems that Mr. Lucas is pissed

Whatever happened to fair use?
You know?
Whatever happened to free speech?
Where'd it go?
I'm only using my First Amendment right
You know I won't go down without a fight

Gonna dig up Alec Guinness
If I can't, then that's a shame
I could dig up Alec Baldwin
But it wouldn't be the same
