Yankovic, Weird Al - Yoda Lyrics






I met him in a swamp down in Dagobah
Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda
S O D A, soda

I saw the little runt sitting there on a log
I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said "Yoda"
Y O D A, Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I've been around, but I ain't never seen
A guy who looks like a muppet, but he's wrinkled and green
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand
How he can lift me in the air just by raising his hand
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I left home just a week before
And I've never ever been a Jedi before
But Obi Wan, he set me straight, of course
He said, "Go to Yoda and he'll show you the Force"

Well I'm not the kind that would argue with Ben
So it looks like I'm gonna start all over again
With my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

So I used the Force
I picked up a box
I lifted some rocks
While I stood on my head
Well, I won't forget what Yoda said

He said, "Luke, stay away from the darker side
And if you start to go astray, let the Force be your guide"
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

"I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed
But remember, if you kill him, then you'll be unemployed"
Oh, my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda I guess
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
I'll be playing this part 'till I'm old and gray

The long-term contract I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
With my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yoda Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

  1. J.... S....

    Best Star Wars Return of the Jedi. Yes Darth Micky, that meant FU.

  2. V.... R....

    Yoda was always adorable.

  3. T.... G....

    1:15:1:19 is my favourite part of the video

  4. N.... ....

    Mood. When Al's satire IS better than Disney Farce Wars!!!

  5. D.... W....

    Beautiful 🌹🌼🌞💥✨

  6. G.... ....

    This needs a new version. With Luke and Yoda from The Last Jedi at the "till the end of time with my Yoda" bit.

  7. x.... 1....

    Oh my Yoda

  8. g.... ....

    I met him in a shack down in Arvala
    Where they’re shooting all the time and a Blurrg looks like a giant toad-a
    T-O-A-D, toad-a
    I saw the little lump lying there in a crib
    He pulled down his blanket and his ears popped out, he looked like Yoda
    Y-O-D-A, Yoda
    Just like a baby Yoda
    Well, I've been around, but I ain't never seen
    A guy who’s s’posed to be fifty, but he's tiny and green
    Oh, Baby Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Well, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand
    How he could help me kill a mudhorn just by raisin’ his hand
    Baby Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Well, I left Kuiil just the day before
    And I've never ever met an Ugnaught before
    But the client said “I heard ya need some steel”
    He said, "Find the asset and I’ll make you a deal"
    Well I'm not the kind that would turn down a job
    So it looks like I'm gonna have to fight off a mob
    For Baby Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    So I rode a Blurrg
    I blasted IG
    Some Jawas zapped me
    And I got them an egg
    And on Nevarro the client gave me a keg
    He said, "Take all this Beskar and walk out those doors
    And our plans for the kid ain’t no business of yours"
    Poor baby Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    But now Greef Karga’s really got me annoyed
    He says if I don’t let this go, then I’ll be unemployed
    Poor baby Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Well, if I bust the deal, I’ll really be in a mess
    But they’re gonna hurt that Baby Yoda, I guess
    So I know that I'll be going back today
    I'll be takin’ Baby Yoda and then flyin’ away
    That stuff on Sorgan’s kinda makin’ me think
    That before this crap is over I’ll be needin’ a shrink
    Because of Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    Bay-bay-bay-bee Yoda
    (Repeats)

  9. m.... ....

    BABY YODA!

  10. L.... B....

  11. M.... E....

    Only weird Al can touch my heart and make me laugh at the same time! Love you AL!!

  12. J.... N....

    2:20 Gives me chills every time.

  13. C.... H....

    I love that "throw forward" to "Making these movies till the end of time", Al called it way back and this video made it relevant.

  14. J.... M....

    @ 2:54 Weird Al is a prophet confirmed 👍

  15. A.... S....

    You need to add in the baby Yoda from The Mandalorian.

  16. c.... ....

  17. A.... ....

    You remind me of the babe

    remind me of the babe


    Gotta gotta get me outta here!

  18. H.... Q....

    The manolorian brought me here

  19. P.... M....

    I came here after seeing baby Yoda in the Mandalorian

    P.... M....

    I had the pleasure of seeing Weird Al in concert, about 10 years ago.. both this and the saga begins were on the playlist that night. blessings, youngling.

  20. D.... W....

    I don't regret a single thing about this in my reccomended

  21. S.... t....

    Is Yoda transgender?

  22. J.... H....

    OMG I made up a song like this years ago and thought why couldn't weird Al now I'm satisfied 😂😂😂😂😂

  23. T.... M....

    A fan of Yoda, have I been, for many years.. nearly as long, a fan of Al, have I been. Seen the man live, I have, about 10 years ago. Epic, the show was.

  24. S.... M....

    I met him in a swamp down in Dagoba

  25. Z.... S....

    Weird Al was put here on this planet to these parodies. It is his destiny. Long live Weird Al.

    Z.... S....

    Weird Al was also put on this planet to write his original songs and put on his amazing concerts.
    I've seen him in concert 4 times so far and was blown away every time. His Vanity tour' of all originals, was amazing and this summers tour with a full symphony orchestra was so good!

  26. C.... G....

    My fave since Dr Demento show back in the day! KMET!!!

  27. M.... Y....

    All I can hear a Lola!

  28. i.... ....

    Commit tax fraud, I must.

  29. j.... f....

    Excellent!. Great stuff... for a sci-fi geek and I have to hand it to Weird Al..his lyrics are the best!.

  30. B.... S....

    Weird Al Yankovic it’s awesome October 10 - 2019

  31. R.... R....

    Best use of episode 7 footage to date

  32. L.... M....

    may the force be with you

  33. s.... ....

    🎶🎶Darth Vader had to die, in that I had no choice, And I later found work being Joker’s voice, Oh my Yoda! Y-Y-Y-Y-Yoda! Y-Y-Y-Y-Yoda!🎶🎶 Ha! Ha! Ha! LOVE this tune! I also LOVE The Kinks’ “Lola”!

  34. M.... ....

    It wasn’t til I saw old Luke that I realised this wasn’t official. Brilliant editing.

  35. S.... S....

    I love ya Weird Al, grew up on your tunes laughing with the boys!
    Also, I love and dearly miss old Star Wars with my Yoda and the gang - it's just not the same but the music remains great!

  36. M.... P....

    "I'll be playing this part till I'm old and grey. " Yup.

  37. D.... F....

    luke: ill be playing this part til i'm old and grey mark hamill: am i a joke to you?

  38. A.... S....

    Why not let al make an official video for this song

  39. S.... W....

    A few years ago i was in a bad place. I came across this video and it made me very happy, and I kept coming back to it. Some evenings I spent 2-3 hours watching it, because it helped me escape my problems and felt like an old friend giving me a hug. Over the last few years I've seen this video in full at least 10,000 times, and it's definitely the video on youtube I've watched the most.

    Over the last year I've been trying to find what it was that kept me coming back, why it has such a welcoming and uplifting feeling. I love classic Star Wars, I love this song, and i grew up with both. But both of them alone don't give me this feeling, however the combination of the song and this well-put together video is mesmerizing. I am in a better place now than I was a few years ago, and just last week I finally identified why this video is so good, and appealing.


    Starting at 2:21 a door to a spiritual realm begins to open, where anything is possible, and you might even find God or the source of love and holiness. This door is fully open by 2:27 for 12 seconds until 2:39, where it begins to close, and is closed by 2:45. But this can't just be watched alone, the whole video is required. I can't explain why this video does that, maybe because the video caused me to emphasize with Luke, but it does, and I love it.



    Thank you for uploading this video. You did a fantastic job on it, and I would love to see you create an updated version after the next movie.

    Thank you so much!

    S.... W....

    Dude you're over thinking it

    S.... W....

    @Super Bagu ahaha, maybe! but then again maybe that was posted to help people overthinking it :D

  40. A.... V....

    i am not kidding, my teacher in elementary school used to play this song for us, and I HATED IT!!!!!!!!!!

  41. A.... W....

    How to make time travel a good idea
    1. Invent time machine.
    2. Travel to the 23rd century.
    3. Invent a device that can change the odds in the 23rd century.
    4. Use probability device to make the odds certain that time travel is a good idea.

  42. M.... ....

    Magical, this song is.

  43. P.... W....

    I would give up many things in life if I could sit down and talk to this man!

  44. L.... G....

    Luke: "I'll be playing this part till I'm old and gray."
    Yoda: "The future you see."

  45. R.... O....

    Great work mate! Luv it! Thanks for posting

  46. M.... T....

    This is so fantastically well done!

  47. P.... L....

    what kind of car would yoda drive A Toyota

    P.... L....

    That's good ☕

  48. K.... K....

    This man is pure genius.. one of a kind, he will make history. Like david Attenborough nobody can take his place

  49. L.... ....

    Hmmm, Yoda fan I am.
    "The long term contract I had to sign said I'll be making these movies till the end of time!"
    he looks like a muppet but he's wrinkled and green!!😅😅😅

  50. c.... ....

    It only took 38 years to complete music video 😉👍

  51. H.... ....

    This is a respectable copy because he added his own video good job man

  52. O.... ....

    With the exception of Luke asking Yoda his name and Yoda lifting Luke in the air by raising his hand, this song is mostly correct.

  53. D.... H....

    Love The Kinks and Love Star Wars...what more could you want?!

  54. F.... J....

    My dogs name is Lola

  55. C.... K....

    This was my favorite when I was like 10... finally hearing it again at 27 and couldn't have imagined how actually great this song is

  56. G.... H....

    in my thoughts, the only thing that comes close is "Spaceballs", and that's only because it encompases so many different movies

  57. G.... H....

    I always love a good parody, but this has to be one of the best!

  58. Z.... ....

    Just saw this in concert. Life changing

  59. J.... H....

    Hahahahah I didn't know this song existed but for some reason I always sung something like this in my head when I heard 'Lola

  60. R.... S....

    Weird Al is awesome 🤪🤪🤪.

  61. J.... B....

    When Lola plays on the radio ..I sing Yoda ..can't help it ..both great songs

  62. S.... ....

    I just thought of this now, of course Weird Al did it 10 years before I was born

  63. T.... ....

    Listening to this while I play with Yoda in Star Wars Battlefront.......coincidence, I think not.

  64. S.... B....

    How I recall first hearing this on Dr.Demento but not until I saw the Movie of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back after hearing this song on the radio did I get to understand it.

  65. G.... ....

    Great shot kid that was one in a million!

  66. R.... T....

    Neither Immigrant Song nor We Are the Champions holds a candle to YODA!

  67. R.... T....

    This is my favorite music video of all time... to include ones that include Freddie Mercury and Robert Plant.

  68. R.... T....

    Yoda taught him that he's got a contract. Mark must appear in SW 7-9. I still prefer his voice work as the animated Joker.

  69. j.... r....

    This is extremely well done, good job
    Weird al never fails to impress

  70. A.... S....

    Well it lived up to the "old and gray" line
    he looks like a muppet but he's wrinkled and green!!😅😅😅

  71. R.... D....

    This song combines my two fav things.weird Al and star wars

  72. V.... R....

    We need to make a petition for Weird Al Yankovic to have a minor role in StarWars...
    STAR WARS FOR EVER
    Well it lived up to the "old and gray" line

  73. A.... O....

    Why is 5 afraid of 7?

    .

    .

    .

    Because 6, 7 8.

  76. A.... M....

    I litsen to lots of weird Al but this is the best he has ever done

  77. G.... B....

    @Lace Young What things do they do at his concerts? Do they dance to his songs? I never even thought of people dancing to a Weird Al Song.

  83. T.... B....

    Awesome!

  84. H.... B....

    Werid al rules

  85. J.... W....

    Amazing how somebody could take a song about a man losing his virginity to a transsexual and change it to a song of how Luke Skywalker met Yoda. I'm impressed.

  86. j.... ....

    Gummy bear

  87. D.... R....

    I can imagine, he oughta do a song about “Jaws” and make it a Deep Purple parody. “Blood in The Water, Panic on the Beach” And the main shark theme can easily sync into the opening intro.

    D.... R....

    Derek Roberts Great idea!

  88. M.... F....

    *Weird* Al Yankovic sells parodies!

  89. O.... ....

    he actually has the mouth move to yoda yo yo yo yo yoda
