The Fandom Menace

It's my birthday, so a special parody today:
a parody of one of Weird Al Yankovic's original songs.
Yes, the ultimate parodic incest. And yet...

to the tune of "My Baby's In Love With Eddie Vedder"
by Weird Al Yankovic



The Fandom Menace
NOTE: In the chorus, the word "the" is emphasized and pronounced "thee".


Oh, my baby, my baby she don't want me no mo'
Ever since she saw him far away and long ago.
She says his light saber is cool and de-la-mode-ish
And he's so strong with the Force that you could almost call him Yodish.
Well, ask me if I care, I'll say I cannot be bothered.
But my girl loves the way he rasps out, "Hey, Luke, I am your father."

Well, my baby's in love with uh the Darth Vader
She's all crazy 'bout that crazy Darth Vader
She's out for my blood now so I guess I should evade her
'Cause my baby's in love with uh the Darth Vader.

Now, with that helmet on, you know he looks so bland
You'd never think that he'd just cut off his son's right hand
I mean sure, he's half-cyborg, and like father like son
But he's got far less morals than Attila the Hun.
But my girl can't get enough of his penchant for murder
Like he's some big iconic character, and I'm just a nerfherder

Well, my baby's in love with uh the Darth Vader
She'd crawl in a tonto with that weirdo Darth Vader
Endor was our Planet, but now it's just a crater
'Cause my baby's in love with
I said I said I said my baby's in love with uh the Darth Vader
Who even cares 'bout that stupid Darth Vader
They do say Sith Happens, so I guess I shouldn't hate her,
But my baby's in love with uh the Darth Vader

I knew we were headin' for disaster
When she caught me hangin' out with that Jedi master.
Now she's on some loony wacky kind of park ride
For the cold-blooded, fuddy-dudded, onyx-studded, stick-in-the-mud
Spokesman for the Emperor who turned them to the Dark Side.

Well, I can't kill a man just by squeezing my fingers,
And if I blow up a star system, the guilt really lingers,
And I don't sound asthmatic every time that I breathe,
(hhhhh, hhhhhh, hhhhh, hhhhhh)
But I know soon she'll be the one who'll grieve.
Yeah, well, let's just see how jealous she'll get
When I start stalking that cutie Boba Fett.

Well, my baby's in love with uh the Darth Vader
She's all crazy 'bout that crazy Darth Vader
She says she wouldn't leave him even if you paid her
'Cause my baby's in love with
I said I said I said my baby's in love with uh the Darth Vader
Not even Hayden Christensen, but just plain Darth Vader
I used to have sex with her, now I'm a masturbater.
'Cause my baby's in love with uh the Darth Vader.
