Star Trek Life
I've been a science fiction fan for most of my life. Star Trek, Dr. Who, I love all of that stuff. This song was a long time in the making since it took most of my life to come up with the material. The girls singing on the chorus are my mailman's daughter and one of her friends.

Lyrics
It's a Star Trek life for us
It's a Star Trek life for us
Steadda work outs, feed my gut
It's a Star Trek life
I'm standin' in a line a-waitin', the new movie
And I've been here for a couple days, I'm drivin' a car
That looks like a Klingon Bird of Prey, I know the exchange
rate to convert dollars to latinum, you know my type
The perfect complement for when we dine, is Blood Wine
People think I'm out of my Vulcan mind, oh well
Where all my homes with the rubber ears, and fake hair
It may seem highly illogical, I don't care
I'd love to build a replica of Quark's, we don't dare
Get upset by all the snide remakrs, and funny stares
I put on a Starfleet uniform and strutted, uh-huh
I put on some make-up so my face looked rutted, uh-huh
I grab a B'at L'eth and ack like a hot-head, I met
You know I'd love to take her out some day, but the Rules
Of Acquision say she'd have to pay
It's a Star Trek life for us
It's a Star Trek life for us
Steada pizza, we eat Gach
Steada Fido, he's Tuvac
It's a Star Trek life
My beer belly hangs out, of the t-shirt
That I've had since 1983, all faded and stained
We live at conventions, spendin' my entire pension
I took a pill that made my blood turn green, I prefer that
I go to bed wishin', that I wake up on a five year mission
I had a vision of Gawron, said I have no
Honor, and I'll never get on a girl or two
I want all those cool toys, from the Klingon knives
To the phasers, transporters, holidecks, and warp drives
And it'd be great to let Seven of Nine assimilate me,
Got a phaser for a remote control, deflector dish for my
Cereal bowl, lost my keys in a wormhole
My licence plate reads NC1709-D,
I only wish it could go Warp 3
It's a Star Trek life for us
It's a Star Trek life for us
Steadda papers, read e-zines
Steadda mother-in-law, The Borg Qween
It's a Star Trek life for us
It's a Star Trek life for us
Steadda datin', we roll play
Steadda "good luck", say Q'apla!
It's a Star Trek life
