We grew up after Vietnam
But before the Gulf War
And in the days between
We had Star Wars
We played with action figures
In the backyard after school
We became powerful Jedi masters
Dueling for the fate of the galaxy
We read comic books and novels
From an ever expanding universe
We dressed up in Boba Fett costumes
When it wasn't even Halloween
We've studied the teachings of Yoda
And practiced the ways of the Force
We stayed away from the Dark Side
And learned to use our powers for good
We wished we were Han Solo
And fell in love with Princess Leia
We'd defeat Darth Vader and the Empire
From our seat in the Millenium Falcon
We are the Star Wars Generation
And Star Wars is forever
