Beam Me Up

To delta quadrant the Enterprise is assigned
 But captain Kirk has long since resigned
 But he'll let you know
 Cheap places to go
 As he does ads for priceline

 Spock is light years from Mars
 You can see him twinkle from afar
 He still shines bright
 His logic is right
 He's found a place among the stars

Sulu was exposed to too many gamma rays
 And was taken to sick bay
 Scottie beamed him down 
 to a nice resort town
 Where he spends happy days

 But I must admit
 Scottie has seen it fit
 To remain on high
 Circling the sky
 He was beamed up into Earth's orbit

 Uhura worked with NASA for a while
 On a mission that was worthwhile
 She still recalls the bliss
 When she and Kirk did kiss
 And it makes her smile

 Dr. McCoy made no "bones" on what he would say
 His humor probably cured many in sick bay
 If he was overworked
 He'd tell Captain Kirk
 "By golly Jim I'm beginning to think I can cure a rainy day!"
