Lyrics to the Star Trek TOS Theme Song!!

[chrispy1]

Ok, seriously - lyrics to the Star Trek TOS theme song?

Yup - according to the article here, Roddenberry in fact wrote the lyrics to the song that Alexander Courage wrote (useless fact - Courage wrote the song in a week...). Lyrics are below. Um, yeah, ok, sure.

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.

"It's cold outside
There's no kind of atmosphere!
I'm all alone,
More or less

Let me fly far away from here
Fun fun fun, in the sun sun sun...
Fun fun fun, in the sun sun sun...

I want to lie,
Shipwrecked and comotoase,
Drinking fresh,
Mango juice,

Goldfish shoals nibbling at my toes,
Fun fun fun, in the sun sun sun...
Fun fun fun, in the sun sun sun..."

[Alpha Omicron]

Seen 'em.

goldfish shoals? huh... I always thout it was either goldfish ghost or goldfish goes...

This reminds me of S.P.O.C.K...

Never, ever, never trust a Klingon
you will always regret it
Never, ever, never trust a Klingon
you will never forget it

They're Swedes and geeky...

Firefly Lyrics are better.

EDIT:

Gayyyyyyy......

Last I heard, the lyrics aren't meant to be any good and were only written so Roddenbury got royalties every time the song was used with or without them. Which is fair enough, since it's purely his fault it's so well known.

well, duh. That goes without saying...
