The Lyrics
I ran across this website for the first time a few days back, and already I've found a lot of really clever parodies, not least of which was one of Garth Brooks' "Rodeo," one of my favorite country classics, called "Mario." The Nintendo goodness and the spirit of the original country song fit together perfectly somehow, and I was thinking to myself that it was such a great parody, I didn't know if I could ever write one to match it. And then, well, the nerdy gears began to turn...
STAR TREK FANBOY SHOW
v.1
He's got his old collection
His acne's almost healed
And he's all set to hit the road
Just to make some awesome deals
And he's got his phaser in his hand
As he prepares to go
He's already speaking Klingon for
That Star Trek Fanboy Show...and it's
CHORUS:
Cold French fries
By the Enterprise
It's Nero, Kirk, and Spock
It's interviews with actors
U.F.O.s instead of tractors
So beam us up, please, Scott
It's trading cards
And tubs of lard
In the costumes that they sewed
And it's boldly goin'
To make a showin'
At the Star Trek Fanboy Show!
v.2
His arms already laden
With countless figurines
Collector's sets of DVDs
And William Shatner's spleen
He's headin' to the food court
Where nerds of every age
Have looked up from their PC screens
For one chance to "engage," over...
-CHORUS-
v.3
It might strike you as crazy
Or even half insane
The way they'll stand in line so long
Just to try out that new game
But his tears of joy
Are the real McCoy
Yeah, he's glad he got to go
To the best place in the galaxy
That's the Star Trek Fanboy Show..and it's
-CHORUS-
It's fanatic cheers
And it's pointy ears
At the Star Trek Fanboy Show....!

Darn it, I'm a doctor, not a lyricist, as some would say. Well, I'm not a doctor either, actually. But, well, just a longtime geek doing my part. Hope you liked it!

DKTOS too well, but I thought this was entertaining. I like the irony of using a country song for a geek parody. Eh, so how much did you have to shell out for Shatner's spleen? ;-)
A lot, but was it ever worth it! :D
