"Gigolo" is a song that came out of "Fumunda," which was a former group containing members of The Station. Growing up we were instilled with heavy doses of Star Wars, and were hooked from the beginning. It is The Station's first tribute to the Star Wars saga, and one of the great characters in all of film: Han Solo. And it is told from none other than Chewbacca's point of view. Who else would be an expert on Han Solo? Chewy gives at least a glimpse of Han's life and travels. It's interesting to note the similarities between Han and today's "rock star" cliché: booze, women, constant travelling, money. Put simply: sex, drugs, and rock and roll.
A jam that developed as an outro eventually became Drink From My Well
The wookie's the life for me.
Space cars and bars, that's all I see.
That's all I ever see.
I'm riding with the captain guy.
He sure can fly. He sure can get ya high.
We're wanted on numerous systems,
This fly-boy, and me.
He'll take all your money and then run away
At light speed.
Maybe we'll see him again someday.
He's a scoundrel, a gambler, to him all is well
Ladies beware cause
He's known around the stars as the intergalactic gigolo.
He's gettin' down.
He's gettin' down.
George Clooney, and even the Fonz,
They want to be like my man Han.
They want to be like my man Han.
He'll stare you down with the wink of an eye,
He'll steal your pretty girl just out of spite.
We're wanted on numerous systems,
This fly-boy, and me.
He'll take all your money and then run away
At light speed.
Maybe we'll see him again someday.
He's a scoundrel, a gambler, to him all is well
Ladies beware cause
He's know around the stars as the intergalactic gigolo.
He's gettin' down.
