Bow Down: A Star Wars Day Ballad for Princess Leia

Bow Down: A Princess Leia Ballad


Princess, Senator, General, Commander

Organa or Skywalker, born of Breha or Padmé, a sheer fantasy in gold

Superior, Rebel, Royalty, Huttslayer

A Madonna in white, honey buns so historically, iconically rolled


Whip-smart wit and brazen with a blaster

Heart as fragile as her soul stays stolid and bold

In love with a rebel, a rake, a rover

I love you. I know. No need to be told


Bow down, out of her way, you walking carpet, you Nerf Herder

You ain't in this for revolution, you expect to e well-paid; her loyalty cannot be sold

She irritates easily, Aren't you a little short for a Stormtrooper?

Fall in line and follow orders, Rebel scum, and there'll be no need to scold


Alderaan's not far away, from her spirit and soul, never

Into the leaves of film, fantasy, history and space, our Princess remains in the fold

Her soul is sewn of Solo though, by the Empire he was taken from us, from her

Now Han and Leia, forever in the stars; Solo and Fisher, lovers ne'er shall grow old
