Tatooine Blues

V1
I'm on this sandy planet
I've never seen the sea
I am the victim of a cruel, cruel god
Who painted this misery

CHORUS
I'll never escape
This lonely landscape
These monotone vista views
This grit in my teeth
I can't get no relief
Singin' the Tatooine blues
Singin' the Tatooine blues

V2
I'm in this dirty old bar
Anchorhead's got me down
I entertain the masses
Wearin' this tarnished crown

CHORUS

V3
I serenade the scoundrels
Me and my masquerade
Nightly I weigh my chances
Of gettin' away unscathed

CHORUS

V1
I'm on this sandy planet
I've never seen the sea
I am the victim of a cruel, cruel god
Who painted this misery for me
