novelty music video in aid of something.
The song is a parody of Alfie by Neil Tenant.
The video shows me giving a lift to four rather attractive girls, which is a vague reference to the Bangles video where Mr Spock gives a lift to one very attractive girl and the other three Bangles.
I am bald as a coot and wearing a Star Trek uniform. The girls peer into the car and seeing my Star Trek uniform hesitate. This is a reference to the Sixty Miles An Hour video by New Order.
I say: "Oh this. Oh no. It's not what you think. The uniform is for my job."
The girls pile into the car.
Than I say: "I'm a starship captain."
The girls look alarmed.
We hear Michael Caine's voice from nowhere saying: "Right. Are we all settled in? We can begin. My name is..."
I say: "Oh this. Oh no. It's not what you think. The uniform is for my job."
The girls pile into the car.
Than I say: "I'm a starship captain."
The girls look alarmed.
We hear Michael Caine's voice from nowhere saying: "Right. Are we all settled in? We can begin. My name is..."
I interrupt to say: "Captain Jean Luc Picard."
Then the song starts.
"Once
there was a time
when I believed in transporter beams.
Mmm yeah
Mmm yeah
And once
There was a time
When time travel seemed a realistic theme
Nerdle ner ner ner
But not now
Ner ner ner
Now Im resigned
To the kind of life I've always reserved
For other starship captains
Less smart than I
You know
The ones who always end up married to Green Orion Slave girls.
Oh come on
Everybody knows that force fields are a crock
Just like a space ship going at light speed could never stop
But the more I live through
The more I find
I'm becoming more like William Shatner
Ner ner ner ner ner
Once
There was a time
When a man in a chicken suit was a stunningly realistic special effect
Mmm yes
And once
There was a ti-i-i-ime
When Captain Kirk groping the lady characters was politically correct
But not now
Now we've redefined
What's real
And what's accepti-bulllll
Ner ner ner
Ner ner ner
With the net result
The ratings declined
And the universe has become incredibly bloody dull
Oh come on
Everybody knows that time travel is a mess
Just like phasers are ridic-u-lous
But the more I live through
The more I find
I'm becoming more like William Shatner
(Except for the hair)
Nrt ner ner ner ner ner"
