MJD's sci-fi spoof of Barry Manilow's 1978 disco hit "Copacabana" became a huge hit around the galaxy, airing on hundreds of radio stations from coast to coast, including Star98.7/Los Angeles, Z100/New York City, and on the syndicated airwaves of The Premiere Radio Networks, Radio Disney, and The Dr. Demento Show.

"The Star Wars Cantina" Comedy Parody Song was written, produced, and performed in 1997 by Mark Jonathan Davis. (No, this song was NOT recorded by Weird Al Yankovic.)

The track was recorded/engineered/mixed in Los Angeles by MJD with help from James Arnold Taylor, Rob "Iceman" Izenberg, and Larry "Larry" Morgan. The music video titles were directed by Gary Reisman.

Her name was Leia, she was a princess
With a danish on each ear, and Darth Vader drawing near
So R2-D2, found Ben Kenobi
He'd have to put the Death Star plans into the rebellion's hands
So Luke and Obi-Wan, had to get to Alderaan
So they stopped into Mos Eisley to have a drink with Han

At the Star Wars, Star Wars Cantina
The weirdest creatures you've ever seen-a
Here at the Star Wars, Star Wars Cantina
Music and blasters, and old Jedi masters
At the Star Wars....

His name was Solo, he was a pilot
With a blaster at his side, and a smile 12 parsecs wide
There with Chewbacca, he was a wookie
They met with Luke and Obi-Wan, about the Millenium Falcon
Docking bay ninety-four, stormtroopers at the door
With a flash of Ben's light-saber, now there's an arm on the floor

At the Star Wars, Star Wars Cantina
The weirdest creatures you've ever seen-a
Here at the Star Wars, Star Wars Cantina
Music and blasters, and old Jedi masters
At the Star Wars....

His name was Yoda, he was a muppet
Darth Vader was so bad, and by the way, he's Luke's dad
Luke kissed his sister, his hand got cut-off
In that galaxy far, far away, Luke has had a lousy day
Boba Fett was so mean, Jabba had bad hygiene
Why didn't they all just relax back on Tatooine

At the Star Wars, Star Wars Cantina
The weirdest creatures you've ever seen-a
Here at the Star Wars, Star Wars Cantina
Music and blasters, and old Jedi masters
At the Star Wars....
