New ENT Theme Song
Copyright © 2003 by Peter Anspach; All Rights Reserved.

It's been a long run,
Since the first Star Trek premiere.
It's been a gold mine,
It makes a profit every year.

And now I will join the ensemble cast,
My career's on high.
And I won't miss a single episode,
No, my contract's sure to bind.

Cause I get paid,
For the part.
I'm saying what the writers tell me.

I get paid,
Every week.
Sometimes for just one scene.

I'll get rich,
From the show.
Syndication will sustain me.

I was cast,
As a star.
I get paid,
I get, I get,
I get paid.
Paid for the part.

It appears that its supposed to be the main theme song - although it barely fits in. It might depend on whether its the earlier slow version or the faster version of the later seasons. You can tell its supposed to parody it from words which sound similar to the real words and the repeat of "I get."

Doesn't work well though - not as good as the others.

Ok, I need help with this one. What the heck song are they doing a parody of?.....

As Carl said, it's just a reworking of the original "Faith of the Heart" lyrics. Actually, I could get the lyrics to fit the tune, for the most part. It did kind of breakdown in the second last verse at the line - "Syndication will sustain me." It's not bad, apart from the last few lines. Much better than the Voyager parody. I couldn't make sense of that one.

Did you do it to the slow or faster version?

[Missster.Freeman]

I hummed to the tune first, before I tried to sing it, and I found singing to the slower version worked better. I tried again a few minutes ago and was able to make the last verse fit okay. lol I kinda felt daft when I was doing it.

[Dark Falcon]

I tried to hum it, but I don't know how the song sounds.

[Brigadier General Pants]

Well, the ENT theme never sat well with me anyway. Rock ballads should stay out of Star Trek

That's what I thought, after thinking about it I realized it must just be a parody of "Faith of the Heart". I actually like that song (the slower version) although like brother Brigadier General Pants said, 'rocks ballads do NOT belong in Star Trek'.

I tried to hum it, but I don't know how the song sounds.

As painful as it might be, you have to watch ENT to hear the theme song "Faith of the Heart".

I love your Starship Avatar's Falcon_06

I love your Starship Avatar's Falcon_06, Is the middle picture a Dominion Mother ship or is that a shot of the ship that Alternate Universe Worf commanded?.

Ok my friends, here is the Star Trek parody theme song (mainly TOS and TNG. This one cracks me up and is easy to sing along with, they parody one of the greatest songs of all time.......


"Roddenberry's Lonely Star Trek Fans" Parody by Johnny D

It was forty years ago today,
Roddenberry brought to man, a play -
That's been going in and out of style,
But it's guaranteed to raise a smile!
It's hokey melodrama, true,
Attracting homely nerds for years -
Roddenberry's
Lonely Star Trek Fans!

We're Roddenberry's Lonely Star Trek Fans!
We hope they will renew the show!

Roddenberry's Lonely Star Trek Fans!
Eat snacks and watch our waistlines grow!

Roddenberry's Lonely
Roddenberry's Lonely
Roddenberry's Lonely Star Trek Fans

We all wish we could be there,
Deanna Troi's a thrill -
She's such a lovely Betazoid,
We'd like to take her home with us,
We'd love to take her home!

We all really want to watch the show
And we thought you might like to know
That Uhura's going to sing a song
And the Vulcan's harp'll sing along
To Bones and Chekov and Sulu,
To Scotty, Kirk, and Spock, a cheer -
From
Roddenberry's
Lonely Star Trek Fa-a-aaans!

(long interlude of the greatest album in the history of the galaxy...)
(...then...reprise: )

We're Roddenberry's Lonely Star Trek Fans!
We bow to Roddenberry's name!
Roddenberry's Lonely Star Trek Fans!
In sunlight we'd burst into flame!

Roddenberry's Lonely
Roddenberry's Lonely
Roddenberry's Lonely

Roddenberry's Lonely Star Trek Fans!
In darkened basement rooms we dwell!
Roddenberry's Pale And Homely Lonely Star Trek Fans!
We never wash or bathe - we smell!

Roddenberry's Lonely
Roddenberry's Lonely
Roddenberry's Lonely Sta-aaar ... Trek ... Fa-aaans!

WOOO!!!

Is the middle picture a Dominion Mother ship or is that a shot of the ship that Alternate Universe Worf commanded?

A Klingon Vor'cha class i think. Correct me if i'm wrong...

LOL, I like this one myself.

I found another TNG parody theme song, this one might be the best one yet. I will post it up in a few.

[Starbase]

A Klingon Vor'cha class i think. Correct me if i'm wrong...

You are correct my friend, The Vor'cha class is not the ship that the Regent (Worf) from the Alternate Universe used. I have an interesting read on this exact subject. Make sure you read the bottom part, it has an interesting note about the ship.......

In the mirror universe, the Regent's flagship was a massive Klingon-designed cruiser that served as the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance's flagship for Regent Worf in the 2370s. In 2372, it led an assault fleet intended to recapture Terok Nor from the Terran Rebellion, but the ship sustained heavy damage in combat with the rebel warship Defiant and was forced to retreat. (DS9: "Shattered Mirror")

In 2375, the Regent's flagship was equipped with a cloaking device that was stolen from the IKS Rotarran in our universe. However, the cloak was sabotaged by Rom during its installation, disabling the entire ship and leaving it vulnerable to attack by the Defiant. The Regent was forced to surrender as a prisoner of war in the engagement. (DS9: "The Emperor's New Cloak")

The Regent's flagship appeared physically identical to the Negh'var-class battlecruiser, but it was scaled up several times when compared to the other ships in the fleet. The DS9 effects designers built a special thirty-foot-long model of the underside of the ship for use in the Defiant's strafing runs, in order to mke sure that the two ships appeared properly scaled.

[Micropot]

I wholeheartedly agree with this thread as I believe DS9 is the best Star Trek series by far, hell that is why I have all 7 seasons on video! The best part of DS9 had to be the Dominion War, it just gave the series that pinch on reality which showed that even the Federation isn't perfect. My favourite episode has got to be the Seige of AR558, if you haven't watched recently watch it again and if you have watch again anyway it is just that great.
