Out on patrol in sector number three usually a complex where no one use to be when the radar screamed "Alert level red, Enemies behind you", so I turned around my head Seeing all those vessels, made up my mind I'd better flee and leave them far behind They started to fire as I contacted my folks When somebody hit me; now I got scared because In space no one can hear you scream My odds they weren't high so I could as well attack It surprised them for a while, but rather soon they were back Their ships looked quite slow, maybe I could reach warp 9 Get away alive from these unknown guests of mine But the pilots were quite good, so they stopped me from that Instead they got closer but sure not to chat With phasers all around me someone made a bull's eye I opened my mouth but I could not cry In space no one can hear you scream
