Dan Bull - Squadrons lyrics

[Intro] Empire, Rebellion Rebellion, Empire [Chorus] Empire, Rebellion Entire batallions of Corellians With a red fire in their belly and ready for anything Rebellion, Empire I'm penning a memoir of the valiant women and men Who'll ascend higher than the tyranny sent by the Emperor [Verse 1] Let me cut to the chase, you see those dots up in space? Each one's a star where wars are part of all their customary days And plus, whose dominant traits are trading shots because they Who opted not to obey that heinous doctrinal faith Of Vader's got in the way and aimed to stop it prevailing Make it fail at the hands of renegades who got a little base Used it to blow up that big grey bollock that shot up place Based on information Bothans bravely took For costs that were paid in blood And were slain, their loss for our gain will not be in vain Our squadrons will take their place, this is not just a game We're a natural team, held fast with mental Tractor Beams Established through practice sat At the helms of these exact machines We've had to see so many ravaged home planets And shattered dreams Displaced populations are dispersed like scattered seeds And now our foes are reaping what they've sown, a Blue Harvest As shadows of the Empire flee the light They'll know a true darkness Like Anakin who started nice and then he grew heartless Amputating Luke's arm, sh*t, can you believe how rude Darth is? Just another abusive father going too far with it Regardless, he's getting attacked from all sides like new carpets [Chorus] Empire, Rebellion Entire batallions of Corellians With a red fire in their belly and ready for anything Rebellion, Empire I'm penning a memoir of the valiant women and men Who'll ascend higher than the tyranny sent by the Emperor [Verse 2] We're keeping the squad tight, if we see you, it's on sight It's not the size of the dog in the fight It's the size of the fight in the dog in the dogfight What's a dog? I'm not sure Alright then, a Wookie on all fours You don't have to be pedantic Why's everything got to be canon, even the fanfic? I'll boldly go where no one has gone before, Mordor Flying, soaring through the eye of Sauron 'til I hit Hogwarts Are you getting involved in a perilous cult Or assisting the cause the Rebel assault? You're selling your soul When every second and every call could affect the result This is the sort of profession that you could never insure at all You can't even fill in the relevant forms And not get a hell of a sore bellend and balls When you're heading With reckless abandon through Beggar's Canyon Can't deduce whether these imps are stupid or sinister Better ask Hanlon, handling business with my companions That's the best thing, now I'm flexing But getting in the line of fire of our X-Wings As reckless as driving while texting Senses heightened, I sense a pre-emptive strike in Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, bomb Get ready for defensive fighting Blowing up a flagship only for the brags it allows Now that's some expensive hijinks Flying uninsured, I've dented up my rented Y-Wing Still the finest fighter pilots, signed up to fight and die Let's finally find the flight to firefight the tyrants' frightful violence We pilots harmonise and strike like violins' tightened wire strings As bows hit bows, we bow Then vow to finally bring this evil Empire To an end just like the Death Star We detonated every deck Even the medic, creche and restaurant [Chorus] Empire, Rebellion Entire batallions of Corellians With a red fire in their belly and ready for anything Rebellion, Empire I'm penning a memoir of the valiant women and men Who'll ascend higher than the tyranny sent by the Emperor
