A STARFLEET MAN
Lyrics by Arthur Levesque -- bs@boog.org -- http://boog.org
(To the tune of "A British Tar" from "H.M.S. Pinafore"
by William S. Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan)


A Starfleet man is an evolved guy
Far above the common rabble
His intellect high still allows him to buy
Assorted technobabble
Alien curse may cause age reverse
His ship may flame from anomolies worse
His body may melt but his mind will know
That everything will be OK by the close of show

[The CHORUS repeats:]
Alien curse may cause age reverse
His ship may flame from anomolies worse
His body may melt but his mind will know
That everything will be OK by the close of show

He follows rules that do not make sense
No alien tech take
No fighting shall commence, not even in self-defense
Or ever learn from his mistakes
He'll patronize non-spacefaring guys
He'll speak at length and his words are wise
If others should treat him thus it's rude
And this is approved Starfleet PC attitude

[The CHORUS repeats:]
He'll patronize non-spacefaring guys
He'll speak at length and his words are wise
If others should treat him thus it's rude
And this is approved Starfleet PC attitude
