I am the navigator of the starship Enterprise,
And I am honor-bound by oath to lay off the cute guys.
But greater than my honor are the passions that will flare
Each time my Deltan pheremones go wafting through the air.
| Chorus: |
Farewell, Planet Delta; I rise to meet the stars, And take my bald soprano song beyond your crowded bars. While other female Deltans may frolic with their beaus, My private quarters must remain a place where no man goes. |
For I come from a planet where the higher forms of life
Have pheremones to help attract a husband or a wife.
On shipboard they draw men to me like horses to a trough.
I only wish I knew a way that I could turn them off.
(Chorus)
Forgive me, Will, my darling: I never learned to love
Without the lifelong bonding that you fled in terror of.
But if you wish I could be yours for just a night or two,
You’d have to take your place in line along with half the crew.
(Chorus)
