Episode IV: Doesn't look like we have much choice...

Under Tattooine sun,
droids lined up like metal convicts
outside the giant crawler.

Sizing up Threepio,
Owen Lars thinks, "Man, I
forgot to shave today!"

These humans are stupid!
We could sell them their own poodoo
if we wanted to!*

Luke's morning ruined,
he imagines Cammie running away with
the first pilot she sees.

"Can I speak Bocce?!?"
If Threepio could salivate, he'd spit
right in Old Lars' face!

J-just let me be! Th-these Jawas
have t-taken my best gears!]

No Toshi Station,
no Biggs, no Cammie, no Fixer--
stuck in a giant sandbox!

As Threepio soaks in
the hot oil, Luke, with his toy T-16,
seeks adventure and excitement.

"Got a lot of carbon scoring...
Whoa! A woman! I've never seen one
that small! And she's blue!"

Luke wonders if Obi-Wan
is related to Old Ben--but Aunt Beru's call
to supper startles him.

Luke, frustrated; Artoo
refusing to replay the secret message;
Threepio with a hydrospanner.
