The rebel struggle is fraternal,

Han’s love for Leia is eternal,

Luke visits Yoda,

And in a strange coda,

Finds out something paternal.

Here comes Jack Carter on the train,

To avenge his brother who’s been slain,

When he’s in a fight,

He doesn’t sound right,

Because he’s played by Michael Caine.

Here’s an idea that I might float,

Have you heard of a killer of note,

Mark is rather shy,

As he looks you in the eye,

And then he’ll stab you in the throat.

Joe Gillis is broke but he’s no fool,

On screenplays he takes Norma to school,

Her monkey has died,

With Max by her side,

And Joe ends up floating in a pool.

Sean’s accent is mighty silly,

Out of the sub, things get chilly,

Jack Ryan has checked,

If Sean will defect,

Give me one ping only, Vasily.

Undercover, seeking a tryst,

Steve wants to be next on the list,

A killer’s on the loose,

Who he has to seduce,

But he’s in deep up to his wrist.

Bill and Joe are a different class,

They go to a party, smoke some grass

Bill kills a hippy,

His defence is slippy,

And we get to see Sarandon’s ass.

Tom Ripley’s escape is assured,

When his yacht is finally moored,

Jealous of Philippe,

He sent him to sleep,

And dumped his body overboard.
