{*a parody of Jay-Z's song "Hard Knock Life"*} [Chorus] It's a Star Trek life for us It's a Star Trek life for us! Steadda work-outs, feed my gut Steadda drivin, beam me up! It's a Star Trek life [Verse One: Tom Rockwell - Sudden d**h] Standin on the line a-waitin', the new movie And I've been here for a couple-of-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 remarks, 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 act like a hot-head I met Marina Sirtis and greeted her like bu*thead ("Hey baby!") You know I'd love to take her out some day But the Rules of Acquisition say she'd have to pay [Chorus] 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 [Verse Two: Tom Rockwell - Sudden d**h] 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 But I'll lose my virginity if it's the last thing I do I want all those cool toys, from the Klingon knives To the phasers, transporters, holodecks, and warp drives And it'd be great to let Seven of Nine a**imilate me Wait, but a Tribble wouldn't date me Got a phaser for a remote control Deflector dish for my cereal bowl Lost my keys in a wormhole My licence plate reads N-C-C-1-7-0-1-D I only wish it could go Warp 3 [Chorus] 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
