What You Doing Now?

I'm so much more than some burnt out star, lost in a galaxy far far away... ⭐️

The penultimate song from Chris Parr's loving and epic Star Wars parody A New Hope: The Musical, this song finds Han and Luke parting ways as Luke joins the Rebel Alliance to go destroy the Death Star, and Han takes off with his reward. As they say their goodbyes, they wonder when they will see each other again and reflect on their fate...

HAN:
I guess this is it kid, after all that we did.
I got my money I'm out of here, I've got some debts that are overdue.

LUKE:
Hey take care of yourself, you're better at that than anything else.
Thought what we had was the real thing, guess I was wrong, what else is new?

BOTH:
What you doing now?

HAN:
Some day ten years from now, I might see you walking around.
And think of how in our glory days, there was nothing that we couldn't do.

LUKE:
Guess this is where it all ends, I just keep losing my friends.
It's all over, I'm all alone. The force was a lie, I should've seen through.

BOTH:
What you doing now?

Obi-Wan Interlude ("The Force" reprise)

LUKE:
If I just follow the light, I have inside I just might,
Fulfill this weird kind of destiny, that always was there but I just couldn't see.
I'm still not sure what it is, hell, I don't even know who I am
But I know, I'm so much more than some burnt out star lost in a galaxy far far away.

What you doing now?

Out There

Out there, somewhere under the moonlight...⭐️

The opening number from Chris Parr's loving and epic Star Wars parody A New Hope: The Musical, this song finds Luke pining for adventure out in the universe amongst the stars and Leia reaching out to a mysterious jedi knight to help save her people from the hands of Darth Vader and the galactic Empire...

LUKE:
Out there, somewhere under the moonlight.
Out there, I got this feeling inside of me telling me that it's right.
Out there, somewhere out with the stars.
Out there, I hear them calling my name and I know I can go real far.

When I'm out there, there's a whole new world of adventure
And I'm not scared, because I know I can take it,
I know I can make it out there.

LEIA:
Out there, oh Obi-Wan Kenobi please tell me that you'll answer my prayer.
We're aware, of the Empire's wrath we pissed them off with our rebel affairs.
Please know, that you're our only hope and we don't have much time to spare.
I need a jedi knight, who will stand and fight, Darth Vader's coming and we're getting prepared.

I know out there, there's a whole lot of pain and confusion
And it might be rare, but we'll fight with our might and we'll fight for our rights
out there!

ENSEMBLE:
When we're out there, there's a musical world of adventure
And we're not scared, because we'll fight with our might, and we'll fight for our rights,
and we'll fight to get by, and we'll sing really high, 
We'll take to the sky, and we'll learn how to fly
We'll shake it and break it, they'll be no mistaking
Because we know we can take it...

LUKE:
I know I can make it out there!

(Star Wars Main Title piano outro)
