Vulcan
copyright 2001 by Tim Griffin

I want to be a Vulcan, I don’t want to be a man
I want to be inscrutable and smarter than my friends
I’d always be alive when the episode ends
Oh I want to be a Vulcan, not a homo sapiens

I want to a Vulcan, man I want to wear those ears
I only want to meet a woman every seven years
I want to save the Enterprise a hundred times a year
Oh I want to be a Vulcan, man I want to wear those ears

I want to be a Vulcan man, a woman or a boy
I want to have a phasor and tricorder for my toys
I’d always be politely condescending to McCoy
Oh I want to be a Vulcan man, a woman or a boy

I want to be a Vulcan on the starship Enterprise
I want to use a Vulcan grip on all the evil guys
I want to be logical and never act surprised
Oh I want to be a Vulcan I’m a Vulcan kind of guy

I want to be a Vulcan, be the Federation’s friend
So let me be a Vulcan or at least a Romulan
Don’t want to be G’Kaar, I don’t want to be Delenn
I want to be a Vulcan in a rock and roll band

Notes

This obviously serves no educational purpose, but a lot of kids like to watch Star Trek as much as their parents do. Plus, I really needed one more song for my first solo album.
