This is how it went...
Eli: Mommy. How does the Star Wars song go again?
Me: da DAAAAAAAA! da, da, da, DAAAAA daa... da, da, da DAAAAA da... da, da, da, da.
Eli: Yeah! That's it. (he joins in for another round.)
Me: What about this part when they're in the saloon...do, dee, do, dee, do, dee, do, dedoodle, doodley do, de scroodle, ooo, do...
Eli: (erupts into laughter) Yeah I love that one! Now do the one where Darth Vader is walking with Luke. The other Star Wars one.
Me: DUN DUN DUN, DUN DE DUN, DUN DE DUN. [then louder and higher] DUN DUN DUN, DUN DE DUN, DUN DE DUNNNN!!!
Eli: (top of his lungs, mind you it's 6:50 a.m.) DUN DUN DUN, DUN DE DUN, DUN DE DUN!!! heeheehee!!!!!
Me: How about Superman? I'm trying to think of it but I keep hearing Star Wars.
Eli: um...ummm...OH I ALMOST HAD IT. It's the part where he's picking up the helicopter and he has Lois Lane.
Me: You mean the part, "You've got me?! Who's got you??!!"
Eli: YEAH! That part. That's when they play the song.
Me: OH!! GOT IT!!! dot da da Daaaa! dot da da da da Daaaa!!!!
Eli: Yep that's the one! (and he joins in for the next mile or so).
Me: (getting out to pump gas): OK now think of Indiana Jones...
Eli: Ughhhhhh it's in my brain and I can't get it! Now I keep singing Superman!
I get back in the car, and both of us are mashing up Star Wars and Superman all over the place trying to get Indiana Jones out of it. We walk into the babysitter's house and I explain what we've been doing. Does she look at us like we're crazy? NO.
Babysitter: Oh, Indiana Jones...Isn't that: Bom ba dum BOMM, dum de dummm, bom ba dum BOMMMM, dum de dum, dum dum!
Eli and Me: YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!
She gets us.
