Smoke on the Planet
a parody of Deep Purple’s Smoke on the Water

PLAY SMOKE ON THE PLANET
It was fun to watch Captain Kirk battle the Smoke/Cloud monster that smelled like honey.  The episode Obsession begged a parody song.. and so here it is…

SMOKE ON THE PLANET
A parody of Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple
lyrics and sung by Rick Moyer

ON 3619.2
A survey on Argus V
The planet rich in tritanium
A substance harder than diamonds
The captain smells a sweetness
And orders the ensigns around
He says fire on the cloud red shirts
But then he finds them on the ground
Smoke on the Planet, a monster in disguise

Smoke on the Planet

Big white cloud

It sucked out the corpuscles
Left the ensigns dead cept Rizzo
The Captain says it’s familiar
That the dr. Search records of the Farragut
Rizzo dies and Garrovick
His best buddy wants revenge
So they all beam down again to search
And the cloud attacks them again

Smoke on the Planet, monster in disguise

Big white cloud

Now Kirk he’s getting obsessed
With the killing of this blip
The Cloud it goes to warp eight
Then turns back on their ship
McCoy and Spock they question
But in the end they trust ol Kirk
The blow it up with anti matter
It’s the only thing that works
Smoke on the Planet, A monster in the sky

Play the song Without Old Landru Here

Rico Dostie from www.treksinscifi.com covered the episode of the original Star Trek series called “Return of the Archons”  It was  an episode that freaked me out as a kid, but as an adult I appreciated it’s message and cool sci fi elements.  So, I had to do a parody of U2’s With Or Without You, and it became Without Old Landru.  ENJOY!

Without Old Landru

Parody of U2’s with or without you
By Rick Moyer

See the brown robes really thick
See the hollow big long sticks
And they serve Landru

Sulu underneath his charm
The population he does harm
And they serve, Landru

It’s all about Landru
It’s all about Landru

The Red hour comes and then they all
Lose control for Festival
And They serve Landru

It’s all about Landru
It’s all about Landru
They can’t live
without Old Landru

Are you part of the body
Are you part of the body
Are you part
Are you part
Are you part of the body

Kirk he tries
And tricks Landru with his mind
Sparks they all fly
Nothing left of him…

And they blew Landru away
And they blew Landru away
And they blew
And they blew
And they blew Landru away

Was all about Landru
Was all about Landru
Beta Three without Ol Landru
Without old Landru

 Woooo ooooooooooooo X3

It’s all about Landru
It’s all about Landru
They can’t live
without Old Landru

Jump on Through

Play Jump on Through
Who can forget the classic Star Trek TOS episode with Mr. Atoz?  Captain Kirk, the dr and Spock beam down to a library that can send you all over the place by jumping through a portal.  Thus the parody of the Beatles song “love me do” was born, it’s now “Jump on through”  Enjoy!

Jump on Through
To the tune of the Beatles “Love me do”
Lyrics and sung by Rick Moyer

Jump Jump on Through
You know  you need to
The Enterprise Crew
So Please
Jump on through
Woah jump on through

Jump Jump on through
Sarpadions too
First Kirk then the two
So please , jump on through
Oh jump on through

Mr. Atoz insists
Pick a world new
You don’t have time
Now get on through

Jump jump on through
The Portal is true
Zarebeth falls for you
So please jump on through

Jump Jump on through
MCcoy he saves you
And Kirk gets back too
So please Jump on through
Whoa jump on through
Yeah, Jump on through
Whoa , oh. Jump on through.

Return to Tomorrow was one of the coolest Star Trek episodes ever. I just couldn’t resist writing a parody to go along with Billy Squire’s “Everybody wants you” I put in the lyrics, “Switching minds with Sargon” and it worked. Enjoy!

Switching minds with Sargon
Parody of “Everybody wants you” by Billy Squire
Sung by Rick Moyer

Readings growing up ahead in the night
Ship is further with a planet that is in  sight
Big strong voice we hear with reverb
Ancient beings Hoping that we have the Nerve

Beam us on down, get to know our cool place
Help us all out before we lose our whole race
Let us build some bots, ‘for our minds are all gone
Let us use your bods, switching minds with Sargon

They need the help and Kirk can’t say no
What it will do, nobody can really know
So on to sick bay where the transfer is done
They come to life and the trouble it’s just begun, yeah

Messin’ with her mind ol  nurse Chapel is duped
Henoch sets it up to kill Sargon to boot
Fallin’ for Thalassa and the things they will do
Henoch fools them all- Switching minds with Sargon

Switching minds with ancients
Globes for their containment
Sargon really needs  you, leads you, bleeds you

Oh the confusion of keeping the crew
With all the kissing they, passing up their feelings too
They got the body, but their feeling real poor
Their dream of robots is going right out the door
Sargon’s dead and Thalassa she tries
To keep her woman’s body and on McCoy she relies
Henoch gets injected with the poison and’s gone
Spock comes back to life, Switching minds with Sargon

Everybody’s Sargon, Everybody’s Sargon

Take a listen to this:

Gotta make an Android Body
original music written and performed by Rick Moyer

(clip)
To Exo III they went
Where Dr. Korby sent
The planet blue and filled with ice
At first the guard he died
Red shirt identified
watch your step by the bottomless pit (ahhhhh!) yeah

And as the party search
A giant looks like lurch
Hi name is Ruk and he’s real cool
Nurse Chapel sees ol’ Brown
But his memories down
He’s an android in disguise

Cause That’s what little girls are made of
Fashioned by the old ones that made us
That’s what little girls are made of too…
Sugar and spice and everything nice
Circuit boards that run their device
That’s what dr. Korby made us do…
That’s what little girls are made of

GOTTA MAKE AN ANDROID BODY (many times)
(clip)
And so his evil plan
To replace all man
Is brought to life in android Kirk
SO Kirk convinces Ruk
And insults Mr. Spock
The old ones did the same thing once, yeah
Andrea kills the fake
Oh what a pair they make
She kisses Korby and then they die
Nurse Chapel can’t believe
And so she starts to grieve
And Kirk is by her side….

Cause That’s what little girls are made of
Fashioned by the old ones that made us
That’s what little girls are made of too…
Sugar and spice and everything nice
Circuit boards that run their device
That’s what dr. Korby made us do…
That’s what little girls are made of

GOTTA MAKE AN ANDROID BODY (many times)

Cause That’s what little girls are made of
Fashioned by the old ones that made us

Bit by Mugato  click to play

Classic TOS derserves a classic Rock Song. Styx sang Mr. Roboto, and I sing Oh no Captain Kirk got bit by Mugato!  Enjoy!

Bit by Mugoto
to the tune of Mr. Roboto by Styx

Rick Moyer

Oh No Captain Kirk got bit by Mugoto
It jumped on him on this day
Oh No Captain Kirk got bit by Mugoto
Spock got shot running away

The Captain yes I am–Flintlocks, Flintlocks, they’ve got some flintlocks
Beamed down I have a plan-Flintlocks Flintlocks, they’ve got some flintlocks
Tyree he owns the land-Flintlocks Flintlocks, they’ve got some flintlocks
I’m the prime directive man!

I’ve got a flesh wound, I’ve been nursing, right on my skin
The poison’s got me, acting funny, McCoys in a spin
So if you see me acting strangely, don’t be surprised
I’m just a man who, who needed someone, and Tyree’s  new bride
To keep me alive-just keep me alive
To keep my alive  to keep me alive

There’s something wrong- with my emotions- My head is fogg-eeey
I’ve come to help- avoid the Klingons, so you can be free
I am a hero, I am a savior, from Starfleet you know,
I’m just a man cursed with a spell beyond his control
On planet Nureal, on planet Nureal!
On planet Nureal, planet Nureal!

I am the captain man, Flintlocks Flintlocks, I’ll get you flintlocks
who gives into a plan Flintlocks Flintlocks, I’ll get you  flintlocks
The prime directive true Flintlocks Flintlocks, I’ll get you flintlocks,
So they can’t kill all of you!

Oh No Captain Kirk got bit by Mugoto Oh no, Oh no Oh no
Oh No Captain Kirk got bit by Mugoto Oh no, Oh no Oh no
Oh No Captain Kirk got bit by Mugoto

You hurt me  very much oh big white Mugoto
Cause I was doing the job that nobody wants to
And thank you very much, big white Mugoto
For driving a wedge between Tyree and Nona
Tyree, Tyree and Nona, Tyree and Nona
I want to thank you, please, thank you

ahhhhoooooo, ahooooo!

The problem’s plain to see: Klingons technolgy
The guns will save their lives, a gift to equalize

The time has come at last
To throw away their mask
So everyone can see
Their true identity…
They’re Klingons, Klingons, Klingons, Klingons

Spock’s Brain

In honor of the 4th Anniversary of Treks In Sci Fi I put together a very fun parody song. I used to really enjoy Ozzy’s music and after wearing out my cassette tape with Crazy Train on it, it came as no surprise that I had to do “Spock’s Brain” I thought that it was a very fun episode- kind of a clunker, so enjoy re-living it. And congratulations to Rico for the 4th anniversary of the podcast!

Spock’s Brain
To the tune of Ozzy’s Crazy Train
Rick Moyer

Beam Aboard!  Hahahahahaha
eyemorg…  morg morg morg morg

Crazy, but that’s just the show
Renewed a third Season
the ratings so low

Lady, in purple clothes
Ion propulsion
To make her ship go

Apparently without feeling
The first officer’s why they came
Some crazy looking lady just stole Spock’s Brain
Some crazy looking lady just stole Spock’s Brain

Let’s go

On Glacial 6 planet
The party beams down

Found Giants with leg warmers
And an underground town
McCoy rigs the Vulcan,
to respond like a borg
The men are all questioned
by the women called Morg

Ladies with big bracelets
Of pleasure and pain
We’re going on a search for Spock’s Brain
We’re going on a search for Spock’s Brain
I know your medalla ambalangoda sings

You gotta get back in your head
Yeah-eh

Waist bands of pain for

The red button makes dead
McCoy gets the knowledge,
and works on Spock’s head

 Maybe, in three hours of work
The Doctor repairs him
watched by Scotty and Kirk

 The nerves there’s a million
but with Spock’s help he’s not lame
We just went on a trip and we found Spock’s BrainWe just went on a trip and we found Spock’s Brain

It’s Nomad

The TOS episode “The Changeling” is really a fun episode. We get to see a cool robot, Uhura’s mind wiped, Scotty killed off and more! I took Linda Rondstadt’s song “Hurt so bad” and changed it up a bit. Now it’s called “It’s Nomad” enjoy.

It’s Nomad
to the tune of Linda Ronstadt’s “Hurt so bad”

by Rick Moyer

Travelin’ through
Lost contact with the others too
Somethings coming at warp two

Well let me tell you that it’s, it’s Nomad
It’s acting really really bad
It’s the probe Nomad coming back again

Like M4 from Flint
Your programming it must have strayed
Roykirk didn’t program you that way

Well let me tell you that it’s, it’s Nomad
It’s acting really really bad
It’s gonna hurt Nomad, if you get your way

Why don’t you stay
let me mind meld with you today
It’s true I’m biological too
You served me before, now serve me again

I can’t let you go back to Earth
Please don’t go Nomad

Please don’t go
Please don’t go ooooo
It’s Nomad

bring Scotty back Nomad
Imperfect Nomad check your record banks for me

Oooooh oh oh oh

You’re imperfect Nomad
You know it’s really bad when Uhura must learn ABC’s

No, it’s Nomad

You see you’re just as bad

One Republic’s song “Apologize” was given new strength because of Amercian Idol this season. As I was listening to the song Nathan and I came up with- “It’s too late to energize” So he urged me by writing most of the lyrics and getting me the soundtrack. Thus the new parody song was produced. I have an alternate version coming out on video called “it’s too late to eat these fries” – exploring cold french fries at McDonalds. Should be fun. Look for it on my youtube channel. http://www.youtube/rickmoyer777

ENERGIZE-
to the tune of One Republic’s “Apologize”
by Rick & Nathan Moyer

Nero…. Nero…

I’m falling through the air
beam us  ten feet off the ground
Vulcan’s gettin’ closer,
but there is no one else around
You promised that you’d beam me up
but  I keep on falling down
I’ll wait…
Chekov keeps on trying
though I might  hit the ground, and I  would say..

That it’s too late to energize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to energize, it’s too late

I’d take another jump, take a hit, take a blast for you
And I need you like a ship needs a warp core
(holding on to Sulu)
Yeah yeah

I loved you with a phaser  red, now it’s turning blue
And you say
Sorry said the Ensign I’m having trouble locking on to you
But I’m afraid

It’s too late to energize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to energize, it’s too late
Woahooo woah

It’s too late to energize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to energize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to energize, yeah yeah
I said it’s too late to energize, a yeah

I’m falling through the air
beam us ten feet off the ground
