The Rebel Black Dot Star Trek Song of the Day

The Firm, "Star Trekkin'" (from Dr. Demento's Hits from Outer Space) via iTunes (The Last Angry Trekkie)

Captain's Log: "Star Trekkin'" builds, with first Uhura; then Spock & Uhura; then McCoy, Spock, & Uhura; then Kirk, McCoy, Spock, & Uhura; & finally Scott, Kirk, McCoy, Spock, & Uhura—increasing in both complexity & tempo 'til the whole things spins out of control at the end.

"Star trekkin' across the universe,
On the Starship Enteprise under Captain Kirk,
Star trekkin' across the universe,
Boldly going forward 'cause we can't find reverse!

"Lieutenant Uhura, report:
'There's Klingons on the starboard bow, starboard bow, starboard bow,
There's Klingon on the starboard bow, starboard bow, Jim!'

"Analysis, Mister Spock:
'It's life, Jim, but not as we know it, not as we know it, not as we know it,
It's life, Jim, but not as we know it, not as we know it, Captain'…

"Medical update, Doctor McCoy:
'It's worse than that—he's dead, Jim! Dead, Jim! Dead, Jim!
It's worse than that—he's dead, Jim! Dead, Jim! Dead!'…

"Starship captain James T. Kirk:
'We come in peace—shoot to kill, shoot to kill, shoot to kill,
We come in peace—shoot to kill, shoot to kill, men!'…

"Engine room, Mister Scott:
'Ye cannot change the laws of physics, laws of physics, laws of physics,
Ye cannot change the laws of physics, laws of physics, Jim'…"

The image is one of fifty pieces commissioned to celebrate Star Trek's fiftieth anniversary—Star Trek: 50 Artists, 50 Years. At the convention in Las Vegas, I inspected the book of the series (Amazon-link) & I may well ask for it on my Christmas wish list.
