This is a little songfic based on 'The Cat Came Back' by Raffi….I never really liked songfics, but I think coming up with this has changed my mind. Enjoy!
Now old Captain Kirk had troubles of his own,
He had a herd of tribbles who wouldn't leave his home
So he sent them to the Klingons using FedEx
Delivery the next daaaaaay
But the tribbles came back the very next day
The tribbles came back, he thought they were a goner
The tribbles came back, they just couldn't stay awaaaaay
Now the man around the corner swore he'd kill a tribble on sight
He super-charged his phaser, but blew himself to bits
But it's ok, he was a redshirt anywaaaaay
And the tribbles came back the very next day
The tribbles came back, he thought they were a goner
The tribbles came back, they just couldn't stay awaaaaay
So he gave them to a man going up to a ship
He told him beam them off, he better be quick
The shuttle came down about 90 miles away
Where is the man now, well he was a redshirt anywaaaay
And the tribbles came back the very next day
The tribbles came back, he thought they were a goner
The tribbles came back, they just couldn't stay awaaaaay
He gave them to a man going out to deep space
Told him give them to your enemies, they'll do the rest
First they went to Klingon space, offered them a gift
What happened to those men, well they were redshirts anywaaaaay
And the tribbles came back the very next day
The tribbles came back, he thought they were a goner
The tribbles came back, they just couldn't stay awaaaaaay
Now the tribbles were possessors of families all their own
Someone must have fed them, cause tribblets did abound
The Klingons showed up, with their FedEx tracking number
Soon the air was filled with tribblets, but not a one was ever found
And the tribbles came back the very next day
The tribbles came back, he thought they were a goner
The tribbles came back, they just couldn't stay awaaaaaay
