The Lyrics
I got a good job flying starships
Captain James T Kirk, Space Corps
And I got a new three-year mission
To boldly go were no-ones gone before
With Kirk on the flight decking
Enterprize keep on trekking
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
First mate Spock is a Vulcan
It means his ears are somewhat over-sized
But inside he's still a big softy
I guess he's only partly Vulcanized
Captain's log keep logging
Enterprize keep on jogging
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
I got my eye on Lieutenant Uhura
She's a real foxy chick, you know
I think of her a lot, e-specially when Scotty
Says "She canna take it she's gonna blow"
Warp drives keep on blowing
Enterprize keep on going
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
The medic on board is called McCoitus
At least that's what I think he said
Now, I don't mean to mock but if he's such a good doc
Why'd he always end up saying "Jim, he's dead"?
Crew hands keep on dying
Enterprize keep on flying
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Captain James T Kirk, Space Corps
And I got a new three-year mission
To boldly go were no-ones gone before
With Kirk on the flight decking
Enterprize keep on trekking
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
First mate Spock is a Vulcan
It means his ears are somewhat over-sized
But inside he's still a big softy
I guess he's only partly Vulcanized
Captain's log keep logging
Enterprize keep on jogging
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
I got my eye on Lieutenant Uhura
She's a real foxy chick, you know
I think of her a lot, e-specially when Scotty
Says "She canna take it she's gonna blow"
Warp drives keep on blowing
Enterprize keep on going
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
The medic on board is called McCoitus
At least that's what I think he said
Now, I don't mean to mock but if he's such a good doc
Why'd he always end up saying "Jim, he's dead"?
Crew hands keep on dying
Enterprize keep on flying
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed
Boldly, boldly, boldly on at lightspeed

You made it so!
Made me laugh, liked "Partly vulcanized" .
Afterthought --You forgot someone----------Pilot by the name of Sulu/ --Doesn't get to say too much /--Seems to be the only guy on board/ ---Who can handle the stick and clutch// While he just sits there shifting--The Enterprize keeps space-rifting.....
I thought it was a five-year mission. In your case, the mission is to boldly go where no parodist has gone before.
Wow! very impressive Phil.
Wow! very impressive Phil.
Well if Rick can suggest an additional verse for Mr. Sulu, so can I, for Mr. Chekov:
Chekov is the token Russian
Monkees-hairdo, and, an accent so strange
His speech needs addressing
It will keep you guessing
When his double-yoo’s and vee’s interchange

Hmm, that last line might have been funnier if I'd written it
When his W's and V's interchange

I knew someone was going to jump in and do that. and I was betting on you, Johnny!
Lucky betting, hoo-mahn. Here's your 5 bars of gold-pressed latinum. Now try your hand at my Dabo table (heh heh heh).
Ahem, Quark!
Now Constable, don't get all bent out of shape.
That was...(long pause) the funniest...(long pause) parody I have ever read...(long pause) in my...(long pause) life! Keep it (long pause) up! Live long and prosper, Phil!
Da, Pheel, your parody vas wery funny!
The parody was logical but quite irregular.
Dammit Spock, I'm a surgeon, not a proctologist!
Loved your parody Phil but when trying to sing along I had a bit of trouble with the pacing. Maybe it's me though...I'm not much of a parody writer myself so I guess I can't be complaining to loudly.
Good job Phil
Nice to come back to find such fun comments- I especially loved the extra verses Rick & Johnny. Thanks all.
Did Tina Turner sing this one? Anyway, I guess I KTOS either way and had great fun singin' along.
(ABC) Another ancient amiright classic. Nice job!
(ABC05) Hummm. Going against the grain here...this must be old, because I've seen other songs from you that were better than this.
(ABC) DKTOS but it's Star Trek so that really doesn't matter now does it.
(ABC-E) Quite warped. Well done Phil.
(ABC) Klingon, Klingon harvest moon, up in the sky...
(ABC-E) .......
(ABC) see above - I loved the "Jim he's dead" line - had to work a bit to get the pacing going right, but when I eventually did, it flowed a treat
Not much of a Trekker and couldn't find a recording of the OS, but even an un-Vulcanized youngster like me can appreciate the 'Jim, he's dead" line. Keep on Trekkin', Phil.
ABC--It's worse than that...well done, Jim!
