The Lyrics

Departing from what seems to be my normal sports takes, my wife and I were sitting in Applebee's last night when this song came on. Immediately thought of the lyrics for the opening line of the chorus and played with it all night long, much to the dismay of my wife who lost me for the night. Enjoy
I get home, had a long day
Need a time to veg
Another time, another show
Another channel now
And you’re always on my screen

The Practice, on tonight
Rescue 9-1-1
Star Trek on in High-Def?
There’s more I need
But you’re always on my screen

But shows suck without ya
Yeah, no good without you
Get… a… life….

How many shows must I watch with Bill Shatner?
From his first time to Priceline, he’s much fatter
I always turn the t.v. on
From Wrath of Khan and beyond he’s the actor
That should retire but he won’t – he’s Bill Shatner
I always turn my t.v. on

I had no idea that your films
Would last all night long
Rent them out, seen them all
Even Incubus
And Osmosis Jones

But flicks stink without ya
Yeah, no good without you
Den…ny…. Crane

How many shows must I watch with Bill Shatner?
On the Match Game, star of fame, critics scatter
I always turn the t.v. on
Final Frontier I do fear he’s the actor
That shouldn’t write or direct – he’s Bill Shatner
I always turn my t.v. on

Oohhh……
Beam me up, beam me up, Scotty
Beam me up, beam me up, now
NOW!

How many shows must I watch with Bill Shatner?
Like a possum, a blossomed, over actor
I always turn the t.v. on
The cameos, legend grows, Muppets Tonight
From Space Cadets, Iron Chef, it’s my delight
I always turn the t.v. on

How many shows can I watch with Bill Shatner?
Never enough, he’s so tough, fav’rite actor
I always turn my t.v. on

Don’t wanna turn that t.v. on
I gotta throw this thing away
Enjoy. No rights reserved or implied.

DKTOS, but it was a pretty good parody, especially since it's true - he makes [unnecessary] cameos left and right. 5s.

SOTM: Was expecting a Rolling Stones "Shattered" parody, but this is still really funny and true! 555

SOTM - YIKES! Shatner & Spock battle in the same month!!!!

Great OS that I never heard before, great use of it for the parody!

(SOTM) See Abbott, Mark, and Peter's comments. I was beaming with laughter when I read this! Thank you for the great read! 555

This was a great tribute to a great band and a great original song. Bill Shatner is also pretty great to boot, and I didn't even realize he was in half of these things... Osmosis Jones?! Muppets Tonight?! I also liked the "Beam me up Scotty" reference. Haha

(SOTM) Shatner is in a lot of things, isn't he? This was pretty good parody (DKTOS notwithstanding), but as the brackets revealed, the OS is beyond me, so I can't really vote without feeling really guilty about it.

SOTM...I really like the OS, and I thought the parody was great, too.

At parts I had trouble telling if this was a tribute or a scolding, but by the end it left a good feeling in my gut, fun parody Medemia, I enjoyed it, and the way it flowed to TOS. Perhaps a little more streamlining on the idea, but very good job on tributing an overlooked great in both film and television

SOTM...Can you get the old Star Trek tv shows in HD, or were you thinking of the movies. This one was pretty good
Phil Alexander - July 31, 2009 - Report this comment
Never really understood Kirk's "sex appeal" in Star Trek.. never found Shatner that much of a turn on, personally. But... (and now it's quite a big "but"), did you see him reading Palin's resignation speech: http://www.tonightshowwithconanobrien.com/video/clips/shatner-does-palin-072709/1139665/

My boyfriend and I have fights all the time about the supposed greatness of the Shat. I think I'm on team Medemia as far as that argument - though I will give him credit for that awesome Palin resignation speech reading (thanks Phil). Well done!
