come back don mcclean all is forgiven

I remember thinking what a bore
When they sent Spock back into the reactor core
The story needed something more
And I don't mean like that time travel rubbish in Star Trek 4
I can't remember if I cried
When the reactor melted with Spock inside
Something touched me deep inside
The day... Mister Spock... died

And I said
Bye, bye, why did Spock have to die
Oh I drove to Alpha Centauri
But Alpha Centauri was dry
And there were some good old Klingons
Looking at Lieutenant Uhuru's thighs
Singing this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

Oh do you believe that Kirk can act?
Are transporter beams a credible fact?
Maybe we could speculate about this for a while
And Doctor McCoy he gave a little shimmy
Scotty said she'll nae take it Jimmy
They both kicked off their shoes
And hitched a ride to Betelgeuse

And Checkov be nimble
Beam me up quick
Sulu says Shatner is a total dick
And Shatner says Sulu's just a country hick
The day... that Mister Spock... died

And they were singing
Bye, bye, why did Spock have to die
Oh I drove to Alpha Centauri
But Alpha Centauri was dry
And there were some good old Klingons
Looking at Lieutenant Uhuru's thighs
Singing this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

And Ensign Ricky got shot again
That's all that ever happened to him
It was the only role he filled
Go down to the planet and get killed
Through endless lonly teenage nights
An alien in a chicken suit kept picking fights
Until Captain Kirk punched out his lights
The day that Mister Spock died

And they were singing
Bye bye why did Spock have to die
Oh I drove to Alpha Centauri but Alpha Centauri was dry
And there were some good old Klingons looking at Lieutenant Uhuru's thighs
Singing this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die
