Hey! You! Get Off of My Ship...
Thank goodness we're off that ship
I feel like we've been on an acid trip
To have my crew stand by my side
United together no one can divide
I recall the day our story started
My ship and it's entitlement slowly departed
To outer space at warp factor six we went
As we save mankind although tired and spent
Planets were reached as humanity stretched
The history of humans was now future etched
Our mission accomplished we headed back
I now sit in this room and take all this flak
Thinking, pondering in this padded place
As my shadow and I stare on fully laced
If it was not for this jacket I'd shake his hand
This dark shape on the wall is my second in command
They tell me I'll never be spaceman of the year
"I will so, have no fear!" I just have to get out of here....
