Action Kate Killed The CT Array (Caretaker)
D'Alaire — 25 May 1998

Sung to Video Killed the Radio Star by The Buggles

Blood wine! -- and a Warrior's song! Well, actually an retro warrior's song (shrug, grin)...In honor of the re-release of "Caretaker," this is after the Buggles' classic MTV offering, "Video Killed the Radio Star" (Nice and upbeat for a picnic, I hope?)

(Think Tom Paris looking back four years.)

I saw you, hands on hips, at Aukland, sevn'ty-one;
You'd get your old friend back before your job was done.
And I was young and not so cured of being dumb.
(Here we go)

We got here looking for my *friends* in the Maquis,
Ripped to the Delta Quadrant with technology
Made by an alien who used us just to breed.
(Eew, how gross)

We met Occampans;
(Cavit's toast)
We got B'El and Kim.

Now we're here prob'ly to stay.
(Quite a ways to go)

So then, we met up with some Kazon on the go;
Tricobalt filled the screen and made a real big show.
I got my pips back, the CONN was all my own!
(Course for home)

You made some en'mies.
(We're alone)
You took in Maquis.

All in all, I like my fate, but I'll fly well, if for your sake.
(Set a course for home)
(Rationed joe to come)

(Musical interlude -- Tom does some "loop-de-loops" (ta to SuzyQ for that mental pic).)

All in all, I like my fate,
Still, we'll get back one of these days.
Don't feel bad we're a bit late --
Put the blame on that array.

It's the...Delta Quadraaant..........
We're in...the Delta Quadraaaaaaant..........
