Beam Me Up Scotty
Aye, aye, captain, up you’ll come!
Warping into outer space,
Beaming up and down.
Ambassadors to every race,
In Federation gown.
Energize, atomic core!
We’re interstellar bound!
Our mission prime: ET found,
Where no one’s gone before!
Klingons cloaking,
Kirk is joking,
Spock is telling time.
Galactic balls of acid dust,
Paradox, love and trust,
Weekly stellar crime.
But wait, Kirk fans,
I hear a voice!
It’s faint, but coming through.
Scotty, beam me up, old chum,
I’m waiting here for you.

Aye, aye, Captain,
Up you’ll come.
Will Spock be coming, too?
That friendly brogue in Scotty’s voice
Could only come from earth!
No alien in that Scottish rogue —
A terra firma birth!
Sailing through the ports of time,
On woof and warp it flies.
Circling holes black as coal,
The good ship Enterprise.
Its mission my adventure,
My star bound friends its crew.
Each voyage I’m indentured —
This ship is my home, too!
If I were Captain of
The good ship Enterprise.
And alien ships were up above —
The sound of battle cries!
Scotty, beam us up! I’d yell,
Then turn to face my crew.
Aye, aye, Captain,
Give ’em hell!
We’re waiting here for you.
The original Star Trek is still my favorite.
