The Prime Directive--What it Really Means
(To the tune of "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious")
(Chorus)
- To boldly go where none has gone, that is the task before us.
- Even though the major networks seem to have ignored us.
- We've been around for quite a while, and all the fans adore us.
- I wish we'd get a decent script, the novelty will floor us.
- um-diddle-iddle-iddle um-diddle-la
- um-diddle-iddle-iddle um-diddle-la
- The first rule taught at Star Fleet is that we don't interfere
- Because we'll warp new cultures, and we'll get them hooked on beer.
- We know how to get 'round this rule, wherever we may go.
- 'Cause we auction off the broadcast rights for all repeats they show.
(Chorus)
- The second rule at Star Fleet is that you should be above
- The feelings when a sexy alien wants to make love.
- Of course there exceptions, like the 'Cap' and 'Number One'.
- 'Cause we all know sex assures that high ratings will be won.
(Chorus)
- The third rule taught at Star Fleet is that violence doesn't win
- And if you should destroy life forms, you made a mortal sin.
- But that won't stop us from revenge on those who are the worst
- We'll beam off ol' Luxwanna, with her molecules dispersed.
(Chorus)
- I'm now a captain of my own and now I understand
- That rules that have been carved in stone and lies go hand in hand
- I've broke the rules a thousand times, I feel like such a jerk
- But I'll never break the record of the famous James T. Kirk
(Chorus)
