Put Your Feet On The Ship

by Gojirob

Is there a tendency to see the Doctor as a messianic figure? Maybe, maybe not. A filk set to the tune of the early 70's Pop/Gospel hit, 'Put Your Hand In The Hand'; a hit by Ocean, composed by Gene MacLellan, with no ill intent cast on either the original subject or the good Doctor.

(To The Tune of 'Put Your Hand In The Hand' )

Place your feet in the ship
Of the man who stopped the Daleks

Place your feet in the ship
Of the man Cybermen fear.
Take a look at the past and
You may see it flow quite diff'rently

By signing on board to the journey
Of the man from Gallifrey.

Ev'ry time the Master returns
Never see it coming;
When the Doctor realizes
what they deal with and starts a running;

That the DNA of the beast before him
Came from us and now wants all the rest

But when it goes down it turns out it was just building up a nest

Place your feet in the ship
Of the man became The War Doctor

Place your feet in the ship
Of the man became The Valeyard.
Take a look at his choices and
You may see the scar tissue bleed

By signing on board with
the man who x'd out Gallifrey.

I was taught that the Romans fell through their corruption

Then I learned it was giant bees caused their destruction

Being a Companion can hit you hard and leave you drained

And broken-hearted frequently;

But you learn that the one who's really drained is he

Place your feet in the ship
Of the man with all the faces

Place your feet in the ship
Of the man with all the lives.
When what looks like the end turns into a loophole; Get Out Free

By going along with
With the man who brought back Gallifrey.
