This is the first of what will hopefully be an ongoing series of Battlestar filks. Adama knows that sometimes it stinks to be the one who was right.
Adama of Galactica
(tune: "Ghost Riders in the Sky")
Galactica flies through the void, the Cylons on her tail
Adama's in the C.I.C., he knows he cannot fail
To guide and guard the multitude of whom he's in command
For if he cannot keep them safe, then dies the last of man
Chorus:
Billions are gone
But they'll go on
Last Battlestar
Watch her fly
Adama tried to warn the rest, it seems an age ago
Said Cylons are still out there, we must guard against our foe
Space Fleet and Council disbelieved and swiftly came their fall
When enemies they'd thought were gone returned to slay them all
(Chorus)
So now there's just one Battlestar, it leads a desperate fleet
In endless flight through blackest space they hope to safety meet
Till then Adama keeps the watch, till then he'll ever fight
Till then he'll taste the bitterness of knowing he was right
(Chorus)
