Do you invent lyrics to the various star trek themes?

[WildManWizard]

and yes, i know gene wrote lyrics to TOS, So I'm mostly talking about TNG DS9 and VOY

 

[1001001]

Yes I have lyrics to the TNG theme...

“Beverly...and Geordi too,
All flying ‘round on Star Trek today.”

[NCC-73515]

Gee, I love star... trek next gen... I watch them all over and ooover again... (from the song with all episodes)

[Seven of Five]

For Voyager, me and my friend came up with, "We are lost, and we don't know where we are..." and that's all we came up with. Probably for the best.

 

[The Old Mixer]

The melody of the Voyager theme always reminded me of "Home for the Holidays," so those are the lyrics I hear in my head.

 

[Relayer1]

No.

Just no.

 

[Forbin]

Yes, but they're not complimentary.

 

[Defiler-Of-Redshirts]

Absolutely not. It would cheapen Goldsmith's big, testosterone-soaked Trek macho-symphonies. I think we can all agree that old Jerry was the most ambitious musician ever involved in Star Trek.

Well, excuse the hell out of me, then! Because I wrote lyrics to the Voyager theme, way-back-when.

Voyager, it's a lonely course you travel
As on you fly, and on you fly, and on you fly for home
Distant stars, they will guide you on your journey
As on you fly, and on you fly for home
No one on Earth has ever seen what you've seen
How many years 'til they walk where you've been?
Through distant stars and through nebulae you travel
As on you fly, and on you fly for home
Fly on, Voyager, fly!

 

[The Wormhole]

Cue up Bart Simpson "what an odd thing to say" meme.

I thought the Voyager theme *was* "Star Beyond Time," that Roddenberry wrote?

[Qonundrum]

I found the song that says it the best, either in terms of making my own lyrics, or something more controversial but I won't go there, hehe:

No, the Voyager theme was by Goldsmith.

Through distant stars and through nebulae you travel

Fly on, Voyager, fly!

Don't get me wrong; your lyrics are pretty and poetic. But no matter what the lyrics are, putting them in a Star Trek orchestra is like putting an elevator in an outhouse; it simply doesn't belong no matter how you do it.

 

[The Wormhole]

an elevator in an outhouse; it simply doesn't belong

Then how do the people who've fallen down get back up?

that's Ilia's theme from tmp

 

[JonnyQuest037]

Yes, but they're not complimentary.

Same. At a certain point during Voyager's theme, I would sing:

We... will... suck... more
Than any Star Trek has before!
Oh yes, we will
Oh yes, we will
We will

 

[tafkats]

Stuck ... out ... here
In the asshole end of space
With this crazy-ass Indian
With a tattoo on his face ...

That's as far as I ever got.
