The Lyrics


Sure, Kirk *always* got the girl... turns out we didn't know the half of it!
Nicely matching OS MIDI HERE.
Shat'sperian Shag!

[sung half-in-the bag by Chekhov, as only that slurrin' Slovac can]
~

Five year mission hath thee down?
Though art Captain, play the clown?
Fret thee not my 'warped' Don Juan
You'll—
Getteth on, getteth on—Cock'a 'Khan'!

Romeo'ver-actin' showman,
Too Farr-gone o'er nubile yeomen
Mister Spock's thy wingman—
Pimpin' all yer flings and—
Queuin' Shat'spear'ian Shags!

Boldly ho where no one hath 'afore
Stunning starlets, beaming off their drawers
Struttin' in thy Star Fleet swaggery
On away teams—ruttin' Jagger-y
Alien nymph, minx or vixen
Prime directive's: Hone thy dict'ion
Used - warp - tricks—straight...
Back in time to fornicate!

Madest props: Kirk's staying power
Helms the 'USS Deflower'
Stars in shipboard mu-si-cal:
'Le'—
Paws Aux Folles, Paws Aux Folles"—has a ball!

Raiseth, too, a toast to Scotty
'Shuttles' gals for Jim The Naughty
On 'impulse' came up with—
Puckin' bawdy couplets—
WOOOin' Shat'spearian Shags!

Lo! When Kirk needs wenches goofiest
Hark! Bones brews up Ale that's Roofie kissed
Grandly named thou 'James Tiberius'
Gals pronounce it: 'Shake'-thy-rear-thee-lass'
Spacin’ Stud's très macho,*very*—
Put the 'Rod' in Rod-in-berry—
Booze - score - chicks—g r e a t!
'After'deck's all sticky, mate!

How'd Kirk bed that tri-'V' Satyr?
Used his 'head'—and replicator!
Much Ado these lur-id stchups
Such—
Beam'ing up, beam'ing up—steaming? Yup!

Oversext, yon Kirk's 'Fall'staffin'
Super 'bard' whilst turbo-shaftin'
Trekkin' 'round Old Globes n'
Enter'prize-y probin'
Klingons n' Gere'ians—
Sore thy Frontiery 'ends'?—
You've been Shat'spear'ian Shagged!

Thanks all... now if you'll pardon me, I've got to get ready for my convention appearances (yes, *that* convention!)

This willful, wanton, and Trekless behavior has got to stop ... being a complete non-trekkie, 'tis sad that probably a lot of gags cruise overhead at warp speed, but "Shake'-thy-rear-thee-lass' was a marvelous, probably difficult-to-find, rhyme for the nice GR touch of giving the pro(ton)agonist an Imperial Roman midname. ... always pictured you as "un-conventional", but enjoy! -- I cant maintain Five-speed much longer!

Forgot to add the only bit of Treklore I know, which is spurtinent to your ec-topic here: That when Kirk kissed Uhuru, it was the first inter-racial kiss on US commercial television. A Wild Bunch, indeed!
