Tatooine (song)

eTatooine is a song sung by Phineas and Ferb while they are on the planet of the same name in "Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars".

Lyrics
(Instrumental intro)

Phineas: You can look, but you're never gonna find

A better place to be

Than this little slice of heaven tucked between

The Jundland Wastes and the big Dune Sea

We can surf through the canyons or train a pack of dewbacks

Build a giant hamster habitat for womp rats ,

Or fire up our solar-powered sandcastle-making machine.

Backup: We're on Tatooine.

Phineas: Yeah, we're livin' like kings out here

We got a two-sun summer the whole darn year

Cruisin' Beggar's Canyon in our T-16,

Or just sittin' on a rock eatin' blue ice cream.

Backup: Blue ice cream.

Phineas: 'Cause we're on Tatooine.

Ferb: Awwww...

We got two big suns, count 'em, one and two

Phineas: And there's two Flynn-Fletcher bois!

Ferb: Me and you!

Well, we're brothers! We're step! No, we don't share a gene,

But we'll always be together here on Tatooine!

Phineas: Jammin' with the Modal Nodes, racing turbo dust bikes

Tradin' with the Jawas

Trickin' out a droid or soupin' up the barge

For a trip 'round Anchorhead Tower

We can stop along the way and startle Tusken Raiders

And still be home in time to fix the vaporators

I think you know exactly what we mean.

Backup: Cuz we love Tatooine.

Phineas: Yeah, we're livin' like kings out here

We got a two-sun summer the whole darn year

Cruisin' Beggar's Canyon in our T-16,

Or just sittin' on a rock eatin' blue ice cream.

I may be wearin' my heart on my sleeve

But I can't understand why anyone would want to leave

We know our city pride may sound a tad extreme

But we're so happy here, we tend to overstate this theme

Phineas and backup: Overstate this theme!

Phineas: Cuz we love Tatooine!

Backup: Oh, we love it! Oh, we love it here on Tatooine!

Phineas: We love Tatooine!
