Jar Jar's Not Gay

********

Gungan, no more moping around
I said, Gungan, pick your ears off the ground
I said, Gungan, 'cause the truth has been found
We will set the record straight now

Gungan, all the people will know
I said, Gungan, it's a family show
You must trust us, if we say it, it's so
There is no room for debate now

I'm proud to say it's true Jar Jar's not gay
(twist hands like opening a jar twice, then wave arms across no, then hand
fold down like you're gay)
It's safe to say that he won't go away
(cross arms no again then shove like go away)

He'll be in Episode II for you kids to enjoy
And ev'ryone else he'll annoy

I'm proud to say it's true Jar Jar's not gay
(repeat previous each time at this line)
That's not to say that he's not here to stay
(wave arms across no)

George is happy with him despite all bad reviews
Til the gay civil rights group sues

Gungan, you've got nothing to fear
I said, Gungan, now the message is clear
I said, Gungan, Jar Jar's odd but not queer
But there's still a controversy

They say he's a stereotype
I say, Gungan, that's just media hype
It seems no one doesn't have his own gripe
They won't give the poor guy mercy

I'm proud to say it's true Jar Jar's not gay
It's possible still that he goes both ways
(wave hands in front of body, then wave two fingers)

He can walk on the land or can swim in the sea
But on both he is quite clumsy

I'm proud to say it's true Jar Jar's not gay
But I can't understand, what did he say?
(cup ear for two beats, cup mouth like speaker for last two)

He's a funny old clown and he's loaded with charm
His tongue is as long as your arm

Gungan, this time I take offense
I said, Gungan, is the audience dense?
They just make up all this false evidence
Around this one sweet thing he said

That's when Qui-Gon rescued the waif
And said, Gungan, I don't think you'll be safe
From those battle droids and their blaster strafe
'Mesa luv you cuz me not dead'

I'm proud to say it's true Jar Jar's not gay
He's from a galaxy far, far away
(wave arm like way far away)

He will still be around for you kids to enjoy
And ev'ryone else he'll annoy

Jar Jar's not gay ... I swear to you that Jar Jar's not gay

Gungan, Gungan, there's no need to feel blue
Gungan, Gungan, he's in Episode II

Jar Jar's not gay ... the truth is that Jar Jar's not gay

Gungan, Gungan, Who knows where he will be
Gungan, Gungan, Way in Episode III

Jar Jar's not gay ... for the last time Jar Jar's not gay

Gungan, Gungan, I declare there's no doubt
Gungan, Gungan, Jar Jar's not comin' out
