A/N: Let me be very clear: This is a parody. So don't sue me. The Clone Wars is property of Disney, and Viva la Vida (the song) is copyright Universal Music Publishing Group. With that out of the way, on with the show!
Note on Setting: This is supposed to be a trooper in the 501st during ROTS and ANH. It'll mostly reference stuff that happened in those movies. It can be any trooper aside from Rex, so, yeah! Let's go! Also, please listen to the original song while you read. It'll make this much more awesome. Trust me.
"501st Trooper"
A Parody of "Viva la Vida" by Coldplay
Fan Lyrics by Red5T65
We used to liberate
Stop Separatist oppression and slavery
Now as the dust settles, and fires burn
Killed the Jedi with zero remorse
We used to kill clankers
In the thousands across sectors
But we were betrayed from on high
Now the Chancellor is dead, long live the Emperor!
The Jedi that we used to serve
Were slaughtered by the hundreds across the worlds
And we saw that all those theories were true
We were monsters, that much is what we knew!
We saw a Separatist fleet above Coruscant
Leapt into battle without any thought
We were brothers out in the skies
Our other vods were fighting for their lives!
And for some reason I can't explain
I knew that something was wrong
Very wrong with us
It was that we'd misplaced our trust
We must've slaughtered hundreds in there
Our blaster bolts filling tiny younglings and still
I couldn't find the will to fight
This parasite that was inside my mind!
Now I hear of a rebellion
I really wish it would gain strength real soon
Because our general has turned
Oh, there's nothing but Vader in there
We saw that princess aboard the Tantive IV
I saw the senator's likeness in her
But Vader had severed his link to the past
This foreign princess meant nothing, the poor lass
But for some reason I can't explain
I know Skywalker is in there
He just needs a reason to turn
But that was when he was Darth Vader
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
That farmboy from Tatooine's our salvation
As I was vaporized I knew he would save him
The good general would be back for good
Didn't matter how long it took, he just would
So for that reason, yeah I can say
Skywalker will be here to stay
He will overthrow that crone
And bring balance to the Force…
A/N: Two things: One, how'd I do? Did I match the lyrics well? I hope I did, seeing as I had them open in a second tab as I wrote this. Two, review with other thoughts, possibly other suggestions! And on that note, may the Force be with you. Always.
