So They Made Me seaQuest's Tramp!
Sung to the tune of Ella Fitzgerald's "The Lady is a Tramp"
I've signed on now, with the seaQuest crew.
I'll never dream of leaving.
I'm an engineer, even though I'm new,
These guys could learn a few things.
Alas, the writers keep me dumb.
And what is twice as sad...
I have been with every guy here
From enlisted to command!
They merely want a bimbo, out at sea.
They didn't do this to Hitchcock, why to me?
_______________________
I get so sick of, the guys making fun
Of situations, I'm put in, uh-huh.
They are all waiting, for their turn to come.
I can't believe I play a tramp!
I don't like poker, with Tony and Luke.
Don't like cigar smoke, makes me wanna puke.
Can't dish the dirt, with the rest of the girls
They wouldn't waste time with "that tramp."
I made a fool, of myself with Miguel.
They sit and stare.
Another bloke? Oh what a joke!
Hate Hollywood, it's shallow and fake
That's why they made me a tramp.
I joined the seaQuest, for an adventure.
I should have read up, on the literature.
They had an age ceiling, how immature.
They were looking to revamp.
ASIDE: With me as their leading tramp!
Now Commander Ford, oh what a mistake.
What's wrong with Darwin? I'm not on the make?
Of course I played, with York and Hamill too…
Sometimes it's GREAT to be a tramp!
I'd like a real plot, I've paid my dues.
What can I do?
Typecast, so fast.
Thought they'd boost ratings, with a bit of vamp…
That's why they made me seaQuest's tramp.
