This Poem is Hereby (re-)Copyrighted by Me

To preface the poem, let me just say that it spun out of a Star Trek fan fiction parody and role-playing writing group after someone introduced a floating Martian walrus as a non-player character. I decided to make it a Beatles parody too.

I am he
as you are we
and he is me
and we are all together

see how we float
like pigs in a boat
see how we fly
don't cry

tachyonic warp-flares
telling of the strife to come
endothermic t-shirts
don't thaw me 'til Tuesday
man, you've been a naughty
boy you let your warp core blow

he is a space dude
I am a space chick
I am a walrus
Goo goo ga-choo

expert electronic brains
are navigating your whole world
for you
isn't it nice?
trust PAL with your life
believe what you like
don't cry

don't cry
don't cry
don't cry

big Rihannsu war-bird
twenty kilometres off
their ship's aim is perfect
what would Captain Kirk do?
sound the red alert
the multi-phasic sheilds are down.

he is a space dude
she is a space chick
i am a walrus
goo goo ga-choo

sitting in an English garden
waiting for the sun
if the sun don't come
it's 'cause the holodeck
is out of juicy-juice

he is a space dude
she is a space chick
i am a walrus
goo goo ga-choo

goo goo ga-choo
ga goo goo ga choo ga goo
