The Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
by Rick Moyer
When I was just a boy
I heard that ABC
Was serving up some drama
In space that I could see
T’was bout a Battle Star
But not your normal stanza
Starring Loren Green,
Cartwright from Bonanza
So these Shiny metal bots
With a mission like machines
Were killing all the colonists
With a budgets never seen
Every week I’d watch
As the ships would turbo up
And laugh at Boxy’s moffit
The barking robot pup
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Those nasty little Cylons
Spouting by your command
Were killing all the humans
And taking all their land
They blew up all the Battle stars
With out a second thought
Only the Galactica
Would be the one they fought
So they forced the humans out
Into space they had to run
Putting all their ships together
Man that wasn’t fun
The characters all made me smile
Their wit and hero folly
Like Starbuck and Appollo
Cornel Tigh and good ol’ Jolly
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Adama and Athena,
They were always there
Then Sheeba, and boomer
Cassiopeia so fare…
The Villians were so cool
With names like Lucifer
Boltar and his minions
And centurions for sure
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
I felt bad for Apollo
When Serena had to die
But later when the Pegasus
Sheeba caught his eye
Count Ebliee made me nervous
With his mental powers strong
But what about those chicks
With mouths that sang that song?
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
I thought it was over
When the bugs they set the tones
And when everyone was partying
They were eating honeycombs.
But our heroes made it out
Giving uniforms to greeters
Saving all their warriors
By faking all the leaders
The coolest part about the show
And they came from near and far
Were the raiders and the Vipers
Base Stations and Battle Stars
The viper was the coolest
With a talking one to boot
Cora loved on starbuck
As he wore his darkened suit
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
The episodes I really liked
That stand right out for me
were red eye, pig raiders
Starbucks Dad those three
Then the blowing up of base star
Was one I liked a lot
As they wobbled on their wings
Just so they would not get shot
Really all the episodes
Were right in with the vibe
Watching every week
For the 13th tribe.
Pyramids and Castles too
Fighting and the mirth
All the while searching for the new
Home they called the EARTH
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
There’s series that came after
Not the one with Katee
The silly episodes
Galactica 1980
It didn’t last so long
Troy and Dillan disappeared
After all it was really funny
To see Adama in a beard.
Then there is the new one
On sci fi that’s for sure
But Starbuck is a woman
And it’s full of gripping fear
The cylons had a makeover
The CGI just rocks
Some of them look human
We learned that in their talks
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
So crack open some mbrosia
And raise your glass real high
Cause Battlestar Galactica
Really caught my eye
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
Yeah, the Rag Tag Fugitive Fleet
