Viral Video of the Week: If I was your Droidfriend
By CONZ PRETI
I’m nowhere near being a Belieber, but when I first heard Justin’s new song “Boyfriend” I couldn’t stop singing it.
Thankfully - for me and those around me - I found this cover of the summer tune. It is the geekiest thing I’ve ever heard, yet the lyrics are magnificent. I’m sure you’ll all enjoy this version better, especially if you’re a Star Wars fan like me.
I’ve pasted the lyrics below the video (I know you were already googling them) so you can sing along.
VERSE 1
If I was your droid-friend, You’d never let me go
I can talk to life forms you ain’t never seen before
Baby, I relate to every human and cyborg
I got linguistics on my lips that’ll really make you bored
doomed, doomed, doomed, we’re doomed
Chillin’ in the Falcon with my buddy R2
Solo kinda hates me so I roll with Master Luke
Hyperdrive my falsetto in 3, 2….
I’d like to be the only droid you want
Let me, interpret this for you
CHORUS
If I was your droid-friend, You’d never let me go
My communication, has six million forms
I could be the protocol droid you really want
If I was your droid-friend, You’d never let me go, you’d never let me go
VERSE 2
Tell me what you like, I’ll tell you what I don’t
The wookie tries to fix me, but I know he won’t
I’m the droid you’re looking for, Ben Kenobi knows
I’ll protect you even better than a TaunTaun in the snow
(Burr)
Droid-friend, droid-friend, I could be your droid-friend
I could be your droid-friend until the galaxy ends
Boba Fett, put you in, carbonite and
I went to Jabba so you could be unfrozen
Chewie
I’d like to be the only droid you want
Let me, interpret this for you
CHORUS
If I was your droid-friend, You’d never let me go
My communication, has six million forms
I could be the protocol droid you really want
If I was your droid-friend, You’d never let me go, you’d never let me go
BRIDGE
So give me a chance, I’m God on the Ewok’s world,
Spend a week with your droid you’ll be calling me your droid-friend
If I was your droid (If I was your droid), I’d never leave you girl
I just want to serve my master right
CHORUS
If I was your droid-friend, You’d never let me go
Your chances of survival are 3000 to 1
I could be the protocol droid you really want
If I was your droid-friend, You’d never let me go, you’d never let me go
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Yeah girl
na na na, na na na, na na na ey
If I was your droid-friend
na na na, na na na, na na na
na na na, We are doomed,
If I was your droid friend
