{*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 Death]
|
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 Butthead ("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 Death]
|
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 assimilate 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
|
