Little Ferengi Boy (new Trekmas song)Lyrics & Sung by Rick Moyer

Buy they told me gold pressed latinum
Don’t give anything for free gold pressed latinum
They’ll pay interest to us gold pressed latinum
To give the grand Nagus gold pressed latinum latinum num, latinum num
So to exploit them, pressed latinum
Profits are fun

Rules of acquisition gold pressed latinum
Devine treasury gold pressed latinum
Ferengar’s  not so crisp gold pressed latinum
To win at Tongo quick gold pressed latinum, latinum latinum
Tube grubs for the win, gold pressed latinum
Profits are fun

Quark he nodded, gold pressed latinum
Rom and Leeta were there, gold pressed latinum
Nog and the dabo girls gold pressed latinum
Odo was far from thrilled gold pressed latininum, latinum
Sisko watched it all gold pressed latinum
Profits are Fun, Profits are fun

Play Thank God I’m a Star Trek Boy HERE

Thank God I’m a Star Trek Boy
A parody of Thank God I’m a Country Boy by John Denver
Lyrics and sung by Rick Moyer

Well life as a geek is kind of laid back
Ain’t nothin like an OS that I can’t hack
I actually know the difference between pc and a Mac
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Every time it’s on I can’t help my self
I set the DVR even though there on my shelf
I’ve seen them all many times their good or my health
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Well I got me a phaser got me a tribble
When Kirk’s on the tube I just have to giggle
Life ain’t nothin but a space opera riddle
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Well the votes still out for Picard or Kirk
They both have their strong points that all kind of work
One likes to talk the others just a jerk
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

The enterprise d looks like a lot of fun
But classic is the good old 1701
Both have torpedoes and phaser gun
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Well I got me a phaser got me a tribble
When Kirk’s on the tube I just have to giggle
Life ain’t nothin but a space opera riddle
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Well there’s TOS and TNG
DS9 and Voyager you see
Enterprise and the cartoon series
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

To boldly go where no one’s gone before
Going on adventures strange new world’s and more
I love every hour cause I’m a trekkie to the core
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Well I got me a phaser got me a tribble
When kirks on the tube I just have to giggle
Life ain’t nothin but a space opera riddle
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Yeah the movies are good the even ones the best
But I watch em all cause I like all rest
Every single one puts the crew to the test
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Now spending all money on merchandise
I bought another collectible against my wife’s advice
But seriously to me it’s worth the price!
Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Well I got me a phaser got me a tribble
When Kirk’s on the tube I just have to giggle
Life ain’t nothin but a space opera riddle
Wooooo! Thank God I’m a Star Trek boy!

Starfleet Uniforms-
sung to the tune of Halleljuah

Play Starfleet Uniforms Here

Starfleet Uniforms

When I was a kid I watched this show
It was full of people that would boldly go
But not many people cared for science fiction
Their five year mission they went before
impulse, stand still and warp factor four
But I really really wanted their uniform

Starfleet Uniforms, Starfleet Uniforms, Starfleet Uniforms, uniforms…

On TOS, Gold, Blue and Red
But if you were an extra that meant you were dead
and the girls they all wore miniskirts in rare form
If you were Kirk and fighting the Gorn
Every week your shirt would be torn
But week after week we’d still come back for the uniforms

Starfleet Uniforms, Starfleet Uniforms, Starfleet Uniforms, uniforms…

Well in TNG they kept pulling them down
and in later years they enlarged their gowns
Deanna was asked by Captain Gelico to go norm
Remember Picard in Darmok they wrote
Introduced his cool away team coat
And somehow Warf’s hair would grow with his uniform

Starfleet Uniforms, Starfleet Uniforms, Starfleet Uniforms, uniforms…

On Deep Space nine, not like the others
They fooled us all and flip flopped the colors
And aliens wore cool suits like our friend Morn
Sisko may have shaved his head
But ODO shifted his clothes instead
And Kira wore a tight red uniform

Starfleet Uniforms, Starfleet Uniforms, Starfleet Uniforms, uniforms…

That leaves us with just two to go
Voyager and Archer’s show
Seven of Nine and T’pal in those cat suits they wore
Running around in their underwear cute
Always in there mathing blue jump suits
Every show had a slightly different uniform

Starfleet Uniform, Starfleet Uniform, Starfleet Uniform, Uniform

GODZILLA!

Play Godzilla HERE

My friend Rico Dostie covered the 1956 movie Godzilla!  on his podcast Treks in Sci Fi.  I was searching to make a parody when I remembered the classic Blue Oyster Cult song of the same name.  I decided to do a cover of the song since it said all I wanted to say about the loveable monster.  So here you go, my first cover song… GODZILLA!

Godzilla
by Blue Oyster Cult
Performed by Rick Moyer

With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the spitting high tension wires down, Godzilla!

Helpless people on subway trains
Scream BUG-EYED as he looks in on them, Godzilla!

He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town, Godzilla

Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah

Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah

Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Godzilla ga Ginza hoomen e mukatte imasu!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
(Attention, emergency news!
Attention, emergency news!
Godzilla is going toward the Ginza area!
Immediately escape, catch up, find shelter please!
Immediately escape, catch up, find shelter please!)

Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah

History shows again and again
How nature points up(OUT) the folly of men
Godzilla!(4x)

AWFUL EPISODE

Play Awful Episode Here

Amy and I got to guest host the Treks in Sci Fi Podcast this weekend and we covered the episode called Shades of Gray.  It is a TNG clip episode that is rated among the worst Trek episodes ever made.. but to their credit, it wasn’t that bad!  So Amy and I discussed it at length and really enjoyed the show.  I had to parody the fact that I like Star Trek even if it’s a cheesy episode.. so I took the Rolling Stones song “It’s only Rock and Roll” and made it into  “Awful Episode”  hehehe.  Enjoy!

Awful Episode
A parody of the Rolling Stones “It’s only Rock n Roll”
Lyrics and singing by Rick Moyer

If I could watch any show on the telly

And be all warm inside
It would satisfy ya, never slide on by ya
Cause in Picard I would confide, I would confide

If nothing is on ya, but the cravin is strong ya

Even if it’s a clunker you see
I’d watch it just the same cause it Trek not lame
I’d boldly go cause that’s me, that’s meeee.

I said I know, It’s an awful episode but I like it.
I said I know it’s an awful episode but I like it, Star Trek, yes, I do.
Oh well I like it, It’s Star Trek, I like it,
I said can’t you see this boy loves Starfleet?

If I had to give up some of the collection
You could take a lot from me
Have my BSG take Firefly from me
But The Enterprise it stays with me, don’t take my Trek from me

Even if the plot is pointless and dumb
Or the continuity is changed
Something’s so alluring, Cause Trek is quite assuring
Am I a fanboy and deranged? I’m deranged.

I said I know, It’s an awful episode but I like it.

I said I know it’s an awful episode but I like it, Star Trek, yes, I do.
Oh well I like it, It’s Star Trek, I like it,
I said can’t you see this boy loves Starfleet?

And do I think it’s the only franchise town?
Well for me even if it sucks, I’ll keep it around

I said I know, It’s an awful episode but I like it.
I said I know it’s an awful episode but I like it, Star Trek, yes, I do.
Oh well I like it, It’s Star Trek, I like it,

Going down to Carbon Creek
an original tune written on the Ipad from Rick Moyer

Play Going Down to Carbon Creek by Rick Moyer

The episode of Enterprise from the 2nd season called Carbon Creek inspired this original tune.  Enjoy.

Going Down to Carbon Creek
by Rick Moyer

Going down to Carbon Creek
Let’s  see who we can meet

Helping  at the local Pub
Watching Baseball with My bud

Live long and prosper

Someon send a distress call

Going down to Carbon Creek

Rico is such a cool podcast host of Treks In Sci Fi.  So I wrote a parody of the Beatles Yellow Submarine just for his six year anniversary of the show.

Play Prepare for blast off

One of my all time favorite movies!  Any of us that played these stand up arcade machines would have gladly traded places with Alex as he defends the frontier.  The Last Starfighter was a spectacular movie with great music, and cutting special effects for the time.  I wrote this original song just for the Treks IN Sci Fi podcast with Rico Dostie.  I hope you enjoy this blast from the past!  Good job Starfighter!

Prepare for Blast Off
Music and lyrics by Rick Moyer

In a dusty trailer park I’m waiting
For my destiny to be served
Put another quarter in the stand up arcade machine
I’ll defend the Universe in the Rylan Star League

 Galactic Greetings young star fighter
You’ve been Recruited by the Star League
To defend the frontier
Fighting against Xur and Ko Dan Armada
Get ready prepare for Blast Off!

 And so I’m recruited by Centauri
A real old guy with a fancy car
In my gunstar with Grig the Iguana
It’s up to us and all we are

 Galactic Greetings young star fighter
You’ve been Recruited by the Star League
To defend the frontier
Fighting against Xur and Ko Dan Armada
Get ready prepare for Blast Off!

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 ELECTRIC SHEEP
by Rick Moyer

The movie Bladerunner was such an interesting Science Fiction offering.  My friend Rico told me that it was adapted for screen from the story called “Do androids dream of electric sheep?”by Philip K. Dick  and thus, this mash up was recorded and performed for your listening pleasure!  No repicants were harmed in the making of this song.  I promise.  😉
