The Lyrics
I know I'm taking a risk here with being too 'fanboy' and all, but here's hoping that the institution known as Star Trek has as big a following as I hope it does! This is my entry into the Aristry Paula Abdul round...
I’m that guy by the name Syn-Cro-Nos
Here's a little story with an added bonus
Don’t be shy, ‘less your phaser’s on stun
From the N.C.C. 17-0-1
Lately seems we never…ever agree
“I like the old one”
And I like ship ‘D’
He takes it serious
“And she wants to fight”
They call us both nerdy
“And I say their damn right!”
Our friends are sayin'
We’re stuck in the past
“Cuz we watch re-runs
Instead of new trash”
Well I don’t buy it
“I call it a schlock!”
They need to get some logic
Just like Mr. Spock!
We take- - 2 ships forward
“Argue back and forth”
On-going missions
With worlds yet to explore
And you know--science fiction
“Tell me, who’d ask for more?”
We boldly go
Where no one…has gone…before
Who'd a thought…we still have quibbles
“She likes the Borg”
And he loves the Tribbles
“She likes that Data”
Cuz I think he’s hot
I hang with Geordi
“Baby, where’s Mr. Scott?!
“Sometimes it’s funny”
And sometimes it’s work
I know Picard’s the best
“I’m down with Kirk!!”
I’m down with Crusher
“And I’m down with Bones”
But when the show is playing
Better leave us alone!
We watch—all the reruns
“Then we’ll watch some more”
If you don’t like it
Then go watch Pauly Shore
Cuz you know…science fiction
“Makes the idiots snore”
But we’ll go boldly
Where none…have gone…before
We take- - 2 ships forward
“Argue back and forth”
He’ll take Uhura
“And she’ll take Mr. Worf”
Cuz you know—science fiction
“That’s what TV is for!”
We boldy go
Where…no one…has gone...before
We’re going! Boldly! Boldly!
Nothing in common…but their name
Both shows are different, yet they’re the same
Both have a crew, both feel the dread
When the crewman sees his shirt is red!
Whether you dig Worf or down with Sulu
You’ll watch these shows all day on Hulu
Millennium Falcon? They’re telling you lies!
This is the Starship Enterprise!!
Baby ain't it somethin'
How it’s lasted this long?
“With faithful Trekkers
Keeping everything strong!”
Don't think we'll ever
Travel faster than light (D’oh!)
“Don't really matter…
Guess what’s playing tonight?”
When you take—alien woman
“Beam her to Kirk’s door”
He gets excited
“And wants to ‘beam’ her more ”
But you know—she ain’t human
“But he’s still gonna score!”
He’ll boldy go
Where…no MAN…has gone...before
We take- - 2 ships forward
“Argue back and forth”
On-going missions
With worlds yet to explore
And you know--science fiction
“Tell me, who’d ask for more?”
We boldly go
Where no one…has gone…before

I am a fan of Star Trek TOS/TNG/ENT and most of the movies, especially J.J. Abrams remaking of the series. TY for your work. Can you do a parody with BSG or Firefly??? Universal BTW still owns the rights on the iriginal BSG and is contemplating a new movie for the big-screen that would follow the 1970s vision and take it into the 1980s. A brief comic series did that and it was way cool. The Galactica made it to earth and was shot down over D.C. by missiles. The Galacticans as it turns out speak Hebrew as the original language and there is a confrointation between US troops and the Galacticans followed by a threatened WW3 with Russia and then the Cylons arrive in the middle!!! Very intriguing material. I myself have 3 Star Wars independent novels I have written for personal use They are 30 chapters each and are pre-25,000 BBY.
(Artistry) Very funny stuff here! I liked the back and forth between The Original Series and The Next Generation. The only qualm I have is that When you would use, "Where no one... has gone... before" because that's 7 syllables and the OS only has 6. If you say it the exact right way you can make it fit, but it throws of the pacing just a bit, it's a little awkward from a recording perspective (which is how I look at all parodies). You would have to say "where" on a down beat, it just sounds weird in a recording. Other than that, great job!
Yeah, you got it right. That 'where' comes on the downbeat. It does sound weird...but it was my hope you'd be too busy laughing at Kirk trying to score...
(Artistry) I see what Blaydeman is talking about...if it was formatted a bit differently, it would have been easier to follow. Putting the alternating male/female lines in parantheses instead of quote marks would have helped as well. But once I got the hang of it, it rocked, particularly in the cool rhymes for Tribbles, Sulu & Whorf!
Great parody, you really got the word pacings just right. I also like how you toss in some names, too. I've seen the U.S. Navy's U.S.S. Enterprise ("the Big E") in Alameda, California. I've also met George Takei (Mr. Sulu), Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi), Scotty (James Doohan, R.I.P.) and James Tiberius Kirk himself (William Shatner). What a thrill, and what a great parody! Live long and prosper.
(Artistry) Live long and parody. Enjoyed this!
I never really got into the Star Trek TV shows or movies so this one didn't really appeal to me but I can appreciate the hard work that went into this one.
(Artistry) I got more of the references than I expected to here, given that I've never watched a single ep of Star Trek ever. I blame TV Tropes and Linkara. Great idea for a parody and very well executed, barring a few pacing quibbles. I'm a doctor, not a parodist, Jim! He needs 555, stat!
This one was very well written . . . I really liked the theme, and it just jelled well for me
