lirik lagu the ballad of optimus prime – the great luke ski

(16 measure intro)

(verse 1a)
to this planet called earth came a pacifist being
and his clan, who taught us things aren’t always as seemed
there was no one as wise and courageous and swell
as the sp*ce hero whose tale i’m about to tell

(verse 1b)
took his troops into battle to fight all their foes
leading good against evil, and everyone knows
when his back’s ‘gainst the wall and he’d run out of luck
he’d flip his body parts ’round and change into a truck

(chorus a)
now i’ll sing you the ballad of optimus prime
he was the grеatest transformer therе were of all time
he was a big rig, a robot, and a really nice guy
he was proof that a hero’s more than meets the eye

(4 measures)

(verse 2a)
born orion pax back on ol’ cybertron
well not born, more like built by some darn quintesson
after a needed upgrade from alpha trion
the leadership matrix to him was passed on
(verse 2b)
it was each autobot versus decepticon
and their leader, that vicious gun called megatron
in a sp*ce dogfight race to find more energon
it was our ancient planet that they crashed upon

(spoken)
earl: uh, what’s a ‘pon’?
luke: no no no, not a ‘pon’. “upon.”
earl: whaaa?
luke: you know, like, “upon far, over there…”
earl: hooo! there’s a pon*far going on over there?!?
luke: no no no no! wrong universe! let’s just get back to the song!
earl: oh, d*mn!

(verse 3a)
they were brought back online in 1984
reconfigured to blend in with chevys and fords
fighting evil on earth, to this credo they stick, it’s
freedom for all beings, and avoid parking tickets

(verse 3b)
prime fought megatron many times, and it rocked
as a pistol, he was always going off half*c*cked
and when prime’s fisticuffs had been takin’ it’s tollin’
he’d shove his long barrel up prime’s semi colon
(spoken)
luke: now that’s what i call taking it up the tailpipe!
earl: ooohh! luke, that pun was so bad it makes me want to throw myself into the, the grand canyon!
luke: so that would make you a cliff*jumper?
earl: aw, jeez! one more like that, and i will blast you from here to the loch ness
luke: well, that’s a grim*lock!… oh, come on earl, you’re a filk star, you can handle it!
earl: luke, it’s enough to make any star*scream!
luke: (as starscream:) pathetic fools!!! there is no escape!!!

(verse 4a)
then in 2005, they fought their final bout
with his last ounce of strength, he knocked megatron out
on his death bed poor optimus prime there was laid
just so hasbro could sell the new toys they had made

(verse 4b)
then the optics went dim on that great sp*ce invader
spike cursed to the skies, but it was edited later
the new prophesized leader, hot rod, he was chosen
we wanted john wayne, and they gave us judd nelson!

(chorus b) (with “the nick atoms” singing along:)
now i’ll sing you the ballad of optimus prime
he was the greatest transformer there were of all time
he was a big rig, a robot, and a really nice guy
he was proof that a hero’s more than meets the eye
(4 measures) (slow tempo, sad part, guitar follows vocal pattern)

(bridge) (“the nick atoms” sing “ooooh…”s in background)
hot rod versus galvatron ain’t quite the same
even those who loved them thought it was comparatively lame
so we mourned for the deaths of our brave fighting robots
the alternative? go home and play with some… go*bots?!?!?!

(spoken in unison, yelling in agony)
luke: nooo!!! not leader*one! turbo! cy*k!ll! that scooter thing! oh my god! unicron k!ll me now!!!…
earl: ooooh, noooo!!! nooo nooo! oh my* …tonka couldn’t sell anything but a dump truck ’cause they had to make these knock*offs! oh my god! …gobotron my ass!!!

(back to normal guitar style & tempo, on ‘resurrected’)

(verse 5a)
resurrected by forces they don’t understand
a powerful hate plague they call ‘fan*demand’
from his grave*ship soon optimus prime then arose
to save us from lame toys with lamer kid’s shows

(verse 5b)
those headmaster / beast machines might confuse me
but with prime back in charge, it’s all good you’ll agree
now immortal, his red and bold chassy is seen
on dvd, ebay, and toyfare magazine!

(chorus c) (with “the nick atoms” singing along:)
now i’ll sing you the ballad of optimus prime
he was the greatest transformer there were of all time
he was a big rig, a robot, and a really nice guy
he was proof that a hero is…

(guitar does transformer theme music riff)
…more than meets the eye!!!

(spoken)
luke: autobots! transform and roll out! (transform sound effect with his voice)
