And here's a different song to sing —

by Diane

From the weblog of the alter ego of the guest star of Wizards at War, pp. 525-527:

I found out the other day that there exist in Japanese lyrics to Star Wars’ “Imperial March” theme. Some claim that they were actually included in very early releases of the film, but most agree that they were simply invented by sci-fi geeks at a convention. Here they are, with hyphens to help you sing along.

tei-ko-ku wa totemo tsuyoi
se-n-kan wa totemo dekai
Daa-su Bei-daa wa kuroi
toruu-paa wa shiroi
De-su su-taa wa marui

Or, in English, “The Empire is very strong/ The battleships are very big/ Darth Vader is black/ The [storm]troopers are white/ The Death Star is round.”

(I had to cut out the Japanese characters because they’re not showing correctly in my blog for some reason: click here to see the originals. …And thank you, Matt…)
