Kathy Mar - Man Of Red lyrics

I am of starfleet and my heart is sick with dread

They issued me my tunic and the color is blood red

Everytime I close my eyes I see an open tomb

They told me to report to the transporter room

I am in trouble.. I'm security

I am in trouble.. I'm security

We beam down to the planet with our weapons set on stun

I know my tour is over quite before it has begun

The doctor, the first officer, the Captain that makes three

The engineer and Sulu, and the other one is me

Chorus

I hope I can survive all this but I don't have much hope

The aliens are charging and the Captain's such a dope

He thinks if we charge back it will surprise them and we'll win

I'm crouched here waiting for his signal to begin

Chorus

I've got a bright idea now if only it will work

If I can be the one behind our crazy Captain Kirk

I'm ready and determined and my phaser's set to kill

I'll get him in the back as we charge down the hill

Chorus (3 lines)
