Tie Fighter Attack
John Williams Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your life is not worth a days purchase
Malodorous flatulence wherever you go
Obese, sweaty and fattened
Like a swine in a prime of grease

Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut

You try to find a well shaped woman
But your body is a deterrence
This greedy boy escapes from reality
The girl takes the bull by the horns

Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut

Wobbling paleface, physical weakness
Smell of perspiration
Disgusting frame, overweight
Dreams of dissipation
Infamous deeds, you can't give up
But she is just a child
Tears of pain that drive you mad
Act of infanticide

Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut

Untouched victims decoyed with sweets
Reduced to silence or on the run
Too many lives passed your hand
Your life will pass my hand with the gun

Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut
Jabba the hut

Every time I fly a plane or a spaceship in a video game THIS theme is ALWAYS playing in my head.

Ok so I'm a musician, fairly well trained, and I just did a bit of a score study of this piece and am just geeking out. The marcato chords in this piece, starting at the main theme at 0:23, are so crazy awesome. It's so outside the bounds of a 'normal' chord progression but it just works so damn well. Like, it doesn't sound abnormal but man, it's nuts. And the bass line is equally crazy. Example, at 0:30 there is the second set of decending chords. The chords are (all major) F, D, B, Ab (so you have major chords dropping down a minor 3rd to the next chord which is unusual and so cool) and then there is an upward arpeggio pattern on a F Aug chord, leading back to the big tonic Bb chord @ 0:32 to start the next section. The bass line over those chords is a chromatic line starting on B to C, C#, D and during the F Aug arpeggio it keeps going D# to E and then landing on Bb. Like...how the hell do you ever think to use an augmented 4th (E to Bb) instead of the standard Dominant - Tonic (F - Bb) during a main cadence like that??? But yeah, the major chords that move around in minor thirds is a major motif of this piece, including the main 'Rebel Fanfare' that you always here in the SW movies, like @ 0:41. Sorry, had to get that out of my system.
