Before anyone downvotes or comments on the spelling - remember OP was 11 when he made this, and transcribed it by hand! Must have been a true trekker kid like I was when I first heard it on Dr. Demento.
"Boldly going forward 'cuz we can't find reverse." That's a good reason to "boldly go forward". 1:49 Oxymoron LOL I used to hear this song on the radio when I was little. I finally got a compilation with it in the mid 90s.
Cyn McCollum I did this when I was 11 xD By listening to it over & over again I managed to type out the lyrics, so my apologies if there are any errors.
Okay... How did you miss EVERY TIME that Spock says, "Not as we know it, Captain." That's part of the joke. "Captain" doesn't even come close to rhyming with "Jim" which is why the composer inserted it as a comedic break. Have some respect for the artist!
I don't know what makes me love that song I think it's there voices and the theme trying to find caption Kirk HA H ALIKE THIS VIDEO WITH LYRICS ITS GREAT
This song makes me feel like... | | | V V V Space, the Final frontier, these are the voyages of the sta... *Goes to warp* Dam it, now we got to do the fucking scene over again!
I think my life has all concentrated, coiling, writhing, right at this point. And once I heard this song, all the energy of my life spread out across the universe. My life is completer, I'm going to go drink the Kool-Aid.
