Nay, not a link to be found! But arrr, I be havin' the lyrics transcribed from me tape!

"The Last of Grand Moff Tarkin's Crew"
The L.A. Filkharmonics

'Twas long ago and far away (how I wish I'd joined the Rebels now!)
The Emperor said, "Let work begin on the deadliest vessel that's ever been
(God damn them all!)
I was told we'd just show up and the Rebels would fall, they never would fight
But I'll tell you! I'm a broken wreck after what I been through
The last o' Grand Moff Tarkin's crew

Oh, Grand Moff Tarkin looked around (how I wish I'd joined the Rebels now!)
For thousands of loyal troopers who would come and be the Death Star's crew
(God damn them all!)
I was told we'd just show up and the Rebels would fall, they never would fight
But I'll tell you! I'm a broken wreck after what I been through
The last o' Grand Moff Tarkin's Crew

So fool I was, I signed away (how I wished I'd joined the Rebels now!)
But when I arrived, how my jaw did sag
'Cause it wasn't no ship -- it was a planet in drag!
(God damn them all!)
I was told we'd just show up and the Rebels would fall, they never would fight
But I'll tell you! I'm a broken wreck after what I been through
The last o' Grand Moff Tarkin's Crew

The Death Star's crew had much to learn (how I wish I'd joined the Rebels now!)
But before the training course began, that princess stole our one deck plan
(God damn them all!)
I was told we'd just show up and the Rebels would fall, they never would fight
But I'll tell you! I'm a broken wreck after what I been through
The last o' Grand Moff Tarkin's Crew

Oh the Death Star's crew had a sickening plight (how I wish I'd joined the Rebels now!)
There were so many miles of passageways
That to find the lavatory took two whole days!
(God damn them all!)
I was told we'd just show up and the Rebels would fall, they never would fight
But I'll tell you! I'm a broken wreck after what I been through
The last o' Grand Moff Tarkin's Crew

We tracked the Rebels to their base (how I wish I'd joined the Rebels now!)
I tell you, we were sure surprised when out they came in their X's and Y's
(God damn them all!)
I was told we'd just show up and the Rebels would fall, they never would fight
But I'll tell you! I'm a broken wreck after what I been through
The last o' Grand Moff Tarkin's Crew

So there I was in my gunpod (how I wish I'd joined the Rebels now!)
One second I was safe in place -- then *boom!* and I'm adrift in space
(God damn them all!)
I was told we'd just show up and the Rebels would fall, they never would fight
But I'll tell you! I'm a broken wreck after what I been through
The last o' Grand Moff Tarkin's Crew

The war for me is over now (how I wish I'd joined the Rebels now!)
The Rebels locked me safe away -- and the prison ship landed on Hoth today
(God damn them all!)
I was told we'd just show up and the Rebels would fall, they never would fight
But I'll tell you! I'm a broken wreck after what I been through
The last o' Grand Moff Tarkin's Crew
