Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

Don't Know The Original Song (DKTOS)? It's on YouTube.

On every episode
He works to play it straight
And on the TV
We get a minute of Takei

"I've laid the course in now
For Alpha Aridoni
We're heading on course
I've laid the course in now
For Pollux and Antares
We're heading on course"

He really isn't bored
Gotta ship to fly
But every script he gets
He only gets one line

While Kirk is talkin' smack
And hitting on the dames
It's very plain the minor roles
Aren't given very much to say

"I've laid the course in now
For Alpha Aridoni
We're heading on course
We're heading on course"

Character's not explored
It's got me asking why
That every script he gets
He only gets one line
The same one every time

Lieutenant Sulu
Warp 4, let's go
Lieutenant Sulu
(Why's Mister Spock get to talk and talk?)
Warp 6, let's go
(McCoy is talking too)
Lieutenant Sulu
(Engineer Scott gets to talk a lot)
Warp 8, let's go
(Shift into forward)
(Just waiting for the cue)

He finally pulled his sword
Got to stab some guy
But every script he gets
Oh, he only gets one line
One lousy stinkin' line

"I've laid the course in now
For Alpha Aridoni
We're heading on course
I've laid the course in now
For Pollux and Antares
We're heading on course"

And when he ran off to be in that Viet Nam movie with John Wayne, they gave all the lines they were going to give him to Chekov! (Yeccch!) Trekker 5s.

George Takei is the coolest dude in the galaxy, even when he is shilling for the Social Security Administration with Patty Duke... http://vimeo.com/23082204

(Artistry) Clearly the writers were fools for not taking advantage of that awesome, awesome voice. Great parody here, makes me wanna watch Star Trek just to see if Sulu was that underused (and to tick it off my "cultural milestones" checklist). 555, oh my!

I love the voice... I'm not a huge Trekkie however and I was lost on a lot of this. All I can say is... "Oh my!"

(Artistry) I'm also not the biggest Star Trek follower, but I know Takei from other film roles and assortted cameos in TV shows and I like him. So I loiked this parody, I just didn't get a lot of it.
