about

A bit of a cutesy love song, delivered in my decidedly not cutesy voice (in the midst of a nasty cold, as you can probably hear), interwoven with a homage to good old Star Trek.

Live long and prosper!

lyrics

I’d love to be lying with ya
in a tent, watching Star Trek on Netflix,
on a phone screen, laughing at the
camp and the kitchness;
painted faces, paper predictions -

and how it relates to the culture
and the market, and the history
and the politics of the 60’s -
and we’re imagining ourselves being hippies.

And in the morning, you might catch me snoring -
and if I muck up your sleep, you can go ahead
and kick me out. I’ll go exploring
by the creek, with the trees
and the frogs in the reeds -

and the dawning, of the sunrise,
and the daylight in your eyes,
and the ash on the campfire
is kindled when the winds
take the smoke to the sky, uh huh.

Wake up
sleepy love, and kiss me
and hold me, and see me
and I see you, and I feel alright, uh huh.

And the billy is a-boilin’
and the toast is a-warmin’
and we’re fighting, over Sisko
and your eyes are so lovely
when they’re on fire,

my darling, let us fight like this always
and I’ll love you more each day
and Star Trek on the TV tells me
every stupid little thing is gonna be okay.
