"Theme from Star Trek" (The Original Series)
Lyrics by Gene Roddenberry
Beyond
The rim of the star-light
My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Goodland" 1:05
from TOS "The Way to Eden"
sung by Adam
Lookin' for the goodland,
Goin' astray.
Don't cry,
Don't cry.
Oh I can't have honey
And I can't have cream
Goin' live not die,
Goin' live not die.
Standin' in the middle of it all one day.
Look at it shining around me and say.
I'm here,
I'm here.
In the goodland,
in the new land,
I'm here.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey Out There!" 2:35
from TOS "The Way to Eden"
sung by Adam and blonde female friend
I'm talkin' 'bout you,
I'm talkin' 'bout me.
Long time back when the galaxy was new.
Man found out what he had to do.
Found he had to eat and he found he had to drink,
And a long time later he found he had to think.
Yes, think.
[I'm standing here wondering -- What?]
If a man tells another man,
[Out of my way|How to mow hay].
He piles up trouble for himself all day.
But all kinds of trouble [must|will] come to an end.
When a man tells another man,
Be my friend.
My friend.
[Well what's it going to be?]
There's a mile wide emptiness,
Between you and me.
Let's reach across it,
*On an even sea.*
Someone ought'a take a step,
One way or other.
Let's say goodbye,
Or let's say brother.
Brother!
Brother!
Hey out there...
Hey out there.
Hey out there...
Hey out there.
I see you...
I see you.
I see you...
I see you.
Let's get together and have some fun.
[I don't know how to do it,
But it's gotta be done.]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Heading Out to Eden" 1:35
from TOS "The Way to Eden"
sung by Adam and blonde female friend
Heading out to eden,
Yeah brother.
Heading out to eden,
Yeah brother.
No more trouble
In my body or my mind.
Goin' to live like a king
On whatever I find.
Eat all the fruit
And throw away the rind.
Yeah brother, yeah.
Steppin' out to eden,
Yeah brother.
Steppin' out to eden,
Yeah brother.
No more trouble
In my body or my mind.
Goin' to live like a king
On whatever I find.
Eat all the fruit
And throw away the rind.
Yeah brother.
note: The two verses are separated by dialogue. The first half is sung slow,
about 1:05. The second is sung faster.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"?"
from TOS "Charlie X"?
sung by Uhura
Now on the Starship Enterprise
There comes a man in Satan's guise
Whose devil ears and devil eyes
Will rip your heart from you ...
And that's why female astronauts
Are overcome and overwrought [some uncertainty about 1st part of this line]
Many a female astronaut...
They know not what to [he'll?] do.
Now from a planet out in space
There comes a lad not commonplace
Oh, seeking out his first embrace
He's saving it for you ...
Oh, Charlie is my darling, my darling, my darling
Charlie's our new darling, he knows not what to do...
[Again, some uncertainty about last part of the last line.
Also, it may "Charlie's our new darling" instead of "is my darling"
in the previous line.]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Friendly Angel Song"
from TOS "And The Children Shall Lead"
sung by The Children
Hail, hail,
Fire and snow.
Call the angel
We [must|will] go
Far [away | to come]
F[o|a]r to see
Friendly Angel
Come to me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen"
from TOS "The Naked Time"
sung by Kevin Reiley (calling himself "O'Reiley")
I'll take you home again, Kathleen,
Across the ocean wild and wide,
To where your heart has ever been,
Since first you were my bonnie bride.
The roses all have left your cheek,
I've watched them fade away and die;
Your voice is sad whene'er you speak,
And tears bedim your loving eyes.
Oh! I will take you back, Kathleen,
To where your heart will feel no pain,
And when the fields are fresh and green,
I'll take you to your home again.
(One More Time!!!)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Abdullah Bulbul Amir"
from TNG "Brothers"
sung by Lore (only a few lines)
[version 1]
The sons of the Prophet as valiant and bold,
And quite unaccustomed to fear;
And the bravest of all was a man, so I'm told
Called Abdullah Bulbul Amir.
When they wanted a man to encourage the van,
Or harass the foe from the rear,
Storm fort or redoubt, they were sure to call out
For Abdullah Bulbul Amir.
There are heroes in plenty, and well known to fame,
In the legions that fight for the Czar;
But none of such fame as the man by the name
Of Ivan Petrovsky Skovar.
He could imitate Irving, tell fortunes by cards,
And play on the Spanish guitar;
In fact, quite the cream of the Muscovite guards,
Was Ivan Petrovsky Skovar.
One day this bold Muscovite shouldered his gun,
Put on his most cynical sneer,
And was walking downtown when he happened to run
Into Abdullah Bulbul Amir.
"Young man," say Bulbul, "is existence so dull
That you're anxious to end your career?
Then, infidel, know you have trod on the toe
Of Abdullah Bulbul Amir.
"So take your last look at the sea, sky and brook,
Make your latest report on the war;
For I mean to imply that you are going to die,
O Ivan Petrovsky Skovar."
So this fierce man he took his trusty chibouk,
and murmuring "Allah Aklar!"
With murder intent he most savagely went
For Ivan Petrovsky Skovar.
The Sultan rose up, the disturbance to quell
Likewise, give the victor a cheer.
He arrived just in time to bid hasty farewell
To Abdullah Bulbul Amir.
A loud-sounding splash from the Danube was heard
Resounding o'er meadows afar;
It came from the sack fitting close to the back
Of Ivan Petrovsky Skovar.
There lieth a stone where the Danube doth roll,
And on it in characters queer
Are "Stranger, when passing by, pray for the soul
Of Abdullah Bulbul Amir."
A Muscovite maiden her vigil doth keep
By the light of the pale northern star,
And the name she repeats every night in her sleep
Is Ivan Petrovsky Skovar.
[version 2]
The sons of the Prophet were brave men and bold,
And quite unaccustomed to fear.
But the bravest of all was a man I am told
Named Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
When they needed a man to encourage the van
Or harass a foe from the rear.
Storm fort or redoubt they had only to shout
For Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
This son of the desert in battle aroused
Could split twenty men on his spear.
A terrible creature when sober or soused
Was Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
The heroes were plenty and well known to fame
That fought in the ranks of the Czar.
But the greatest of these was a man by the name
Of Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
He could imitate Irving, play poker or pool
And strum on the Spanish guitar.
In fact quite the cream of the Muscovite team
Was Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
The ladies all loved him, his rivals were few
He could drink them all under the bar.
Come gallant or tank there was no one to rank
With Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
One day this bold Russian had shouldered his gun
And donned his most truculent sneer.
Downtown he did go where he trod on the toe
Of Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
"Young man", quoth Bulbul, "Has your life grown so dull
That you're eager to end your career?
Vile infidel know you have trod on the toe
Of Abdullah Bulbul Ameer."
"So take your last look at the sunshine and brook
And send your regrets to the Czar.
By this I imply you are going to die,
Mr. Ivan Skavinsky Skivar."
Said Ivan, "My friend, your remarks in the end
Will avail you but little, I fear.
For you ne'er will survive to repeat them alive,
Mr. Abdullah Bulbul Ameer."
Then this bold Mamalouk drew his trusty skibouk
With a cry of "Allah Akbar".
And with murderous intent he ferociously went
For Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
They parried and thrust, they sidestepped and cussed
Of blood they spilled a great lot.
The philologist blokes, who seldom crack jokes,
Say that hash was first made on that spot.
They fought all that night 'neath the pale yellow moon,
The din it was heard from afar.
And multitudes came, so great was the fame,
Of Abdul and Ivan Skivar.
As Abdul's long knife was extracting the life,
In fact he had shouted, "Huzzah!"
He felt himself struck by that wily Calmuck,
Count Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
The Sultan drove by in his red-crested fly,
Expecting the victor to cheer.
But he only drew nigh just to hear the last sigh
Of Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
Czar Petrovich too, in his spectacles blue
Drove up in his new crested car.
He arrived just in time to exchange a last line
With Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
A tomb rises up where the Blue Danube rolls,
And 'graved there in characters clear,
Is "Stranger when passing, oh pray for the soul
Of Abdullah Bulbul Ameer."
A splash in the Black Sea one dark moonless night,
Caused ripples to spread near and far.
It was made by a sack fitting close to the back
Of Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
A Muscovite maiden her lone vigil keeps,
'Neath the light of the pale polar star.
And the name that she murmurs so oft as she weeps
Is Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.

The song O'Brien sung with his captain
from TNG "The Wounded"
The minstrel boy to the war has gone,
In the ranks of death you will find him.
His father's sword he hath girded on,
And his wild harp slung behind him.
Lands of songs said the warrior-bard,
Though all the world bestrays thee.
One sword at least thy rights shall guard,
One faithful harp shall praise thee.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Banned from Argo"
When we beamed into Argo 4 in search of R & R
Our crew set out investigating every joint and bar
We had high expectations of their hospitality
But soon found Argo not prepared for spacers such as we
CHORUS:
And we're...banned from Argo, every one
Banned from Argo, just for having a little fun
We spent a jolly shore leave there of just 3 days or 4
But Argo doesn't want us anymore
Our captain's needs were simple but his methods were complex
He found 5 willing partners, each of a different world and sex
The shore police were on the way, we had no second chance
We beamed him up in the nick of time with the remnants of his pants
CHORUS
*** disappeared a while in the local **
Buying a *** guaranteed to cause ***
She came home with no uniform, and an oddly cheerful heart
And a painful way of walking with her feet a yard apart
CHORUS
Our proper, prim first officer was drugged with something green
And dragged into an alley where he suffered things obscene
He sobered up in sickbay and he's none the worse for wear
Except he somehow taught the ship's computer how to swear
CHORUS
Our doctor loves humanity, his private life is quiet
The shore police arrested him for inciting girls to riot
(WHAT?)
They found him in the city jail, *** debris
Intact except for herpes, and 6 kinds of VD
CHORUS
(Gee, I wonder why?)
Our engineer can yield to none in quaffing down the brew
He outdrank 7 space marines and a demolition crew
The navigator *** but he outdrank almost all
And now they got a shuttlecraft on the roof of city hall
CHORUS
Our lady of communications won a ship like that
By tying into the Argo-wide communications net
Now, every time they call you on the Argo telescreen
The flesh is there, but the clothes they wear are nowhere to be seen
(Yaah!)
CHORUS
Our helmsman loves exotic plants, the plants all love him too
He took some down on leave with him, and we wondered what they'd do
Well, the planetary governor now swears upon his life
A gang of plants entwined his house, and then seduced his wife
CHORUS
A band of pirates landed and nobody seemed to care
They stomped in the nearest bar and announced that they were there
(We're here!)
Half our crew was standing there and invited them to play
The pirates took one look at us, and turned and ran away
CHORUS
We're truly Starfleet's finest, and our record is our pride
And when we play we tend to leave a trail a mile wide
We're sorry 'bout the wreckage and the rumpus and the fuss
You can be sure that planet will be long forgetting us
CHORUS
(I wonder why?)
(Did we do something wrong?)

"Abdullah Bulbul Amir"
from TNG "Brothers"
sung by Lore (only a few lines)

The sons of the Prophet as valiant and bold,
And quite unaccustomed to fear;
And the bravest of all was a man, so I'm told

Are "Stranger, when passing by, pray for the soul
Of Abdullah Bulbul Amir."
A Muscovite maiden her vigil doth keep
By the light of the pale northern star,
And the name she repeats every night in her sleep
Is Ivan Petrovsky Skovar.
[version 2]
The sons of the Prophet were brave men and bold,
And quite unaccustomed to fear.
But the bravest of all was a man I am told
Named Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
When they needed a man to encourage the van
Or harass a foe from the rear.
Storm fort or redoubt they had only to shout
For Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
This son of the desert in battle aroused
Could split twenty men on his spear.
A terrible creature when sober or soused
Was Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
The heroes were plenty and well known to fame
That fought in the ranks of the Czar.
But the greatest of these was a man by the name
Of Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
He could imitate Irving, play poker or pool
And strum on the Spanish guitar.
In fact quite the cream of the Muscovite team
Was Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
The ladies all loved him, his rivals were few
He could drink them all under the bar.
Come gallant or tank there was no one to rank
With Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
One day this bold Russian had shouldered his gun
And donned his most truculent sneer.
Downtown he did go where he trod on the toe
Of Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
"Young man", quoth Bulbul, "Has your life grown so dull
That you're eager to end your career?
Vile infidel know you have trod on the toe
Of Abdullah Bulbul Ameer."
"So take your last look at the sunshine and brook
And send your regrets to the Czar.
By this I imply you are going to die,
Mr. Ivan Skavinsky Skivar."
Said Ivan, "My friend, your remarks in the end
Will avail you but little, I fear.
For you ne'er will survive to repeat them alive,
Mr. Abdullah Bulbul Ameer."
Then this bold Mamalouk drew his trusty skibouk
With a cry of "Allah Akbar".
And with murderous intent he ferociously went
For Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
They parried and thrust, they sidestepped and cussed
Of blood they spilled a great lot.
The philologist blokes, who seldom crack jokes,
Say that hash was first made on that spot.
They fought all that night 'neath the pale yellow moon,
The din it was heard from afar.
And multitudes came, so great was the fame,
Of Abdul and Ivan Skivar.
As Abdul's long knife was extracting the life,
In fact he had shouted, "Huzzah!"
He felt himself struck by that wily Calmuck,
Count Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
The Sultan drove by in his red-crested fly,
Expecting the victor to cheer.
But he only drew nigh just to hear the last sigh
Of Abdullah Bulbul Ameer.
Czar Petrovich too, in his spectacles blue
Drove up in his new crested car.
He arrived just in time to exchange a last line
With Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
A tomb rises up where the Blue Danube rolls,
And 'graved there in characters clear,
Is "Stranger when passing, oh pray for the soul
Of Abdullah Bulbul Ameer."
A splash in the Black Sea one dark moonless night,
Caused ripples to spread near and far.
It was made by a sack fitting close to the back
Of Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
A Muscovite maiden her lone vigil keeps,
'Neath the light of the pale polar star.
And the name that she murmurs so oft as she weeps
Is Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.

The song O'Brien sung with his captain
from TNG "The Wounded"
The minstrel boy to the war has gone,
In the ranks of death you will find him.
His father's sword he hath girded on,
And his wild harp slung behind him.
Lands of songs said the warrior-bard,
Though all the world bestrays thee.
One sword at least thy rights shall guard,
One faithful harp shall praise thee.

"Banned from Argo"
When we beamed into Argo 4 in search of R & R
Our crew set out investigating every joint and bar
We had high expectations of their hospitality
But soon found Argo not prepared for spacers such as we
CHORUS:
And we're...banned from Argo, every one
Banned from Argo, just for having a little fun
We spent a jolly shore leave there of just 3 days or 4
But Argo doesn't want us anymore
Our captain's needs were simple but his methods were complex
He found 5 willing partners, each of a different world and sex
The shore police were on the way, we had no second chance
We beamed him up in the nick of time with the remnants of his pants
CHORUS
*** disappeared a while in the local **
Buying a *** guaranteed to cause ***
She came home with no uniform, and an oddly cheerful heart
And a painful way of walking with her feet a yard apart
CHORUS
Our proper, prim first officer was drugged with something green
And dragged into an alley where he suffered things obscene
He sobered up in sickbay and he's none the worse for wear
Except he somehow taught the ship's computer how to swear
CHORUS
Our doctor loves humanity, his private life is quiet
The shore police arrested him for inciting girls to riot
(WHAT?)
They found him in the city jail, *** debris
Intact except for herpes, and 6 kinds of VD
CHORUS
(Gee, I wonder why?)
Our engineer can yield to none in quaffing down the brew
He outdrank 7 space marines and a demolition crew
The navigator *** but he outdrank almost all
And now they got a shuttlecraft on the roof of city hall
CHORUS
Our lady of communications won a ship like that
By tying into the Argo-wide communications net
Now, every time they call you on the Argo telescreen
The flesh is there, but the clothes they wear are nowhere to be seen
(Yaah!)
CHORUS
Our helmsman loves exotic plants, the plants all love him too
He took some down on leave with him, and we wondered what they'd do
Well, the planetary governor now swears upon his life
A gang of plants entwined his house, and then seduced his wife
CHORUS
A band of pirates landed and nobody seemed to care
They stomped in the nearest bar and announced that they were there
(We're here!)
Half our crew was standing there and invited them to play
The pirates took one look at us, and turned and ran away
CHORUS
We're truly Starfleet's finest, and our record is our pride
And when we play we tend to leave a trail a mile wide
We're sorry 'bout the wreckage and the rumpus and the fuss
You can be sure that planet will be long forgetting us
CHORUS
(I wonder why?)
(Did we do something wrong?)
