[Intro - Star Trek strings] [Verse 1] In the original series, a tale was told Of Trelane, the Squire, with powers to mold A planet of play, where he'd manipulate fate But his intentions were childish, an immature state [Chorus] Trelane and Q, two entities divine One immature, one cunning, with powers that shine Gothos and the Continuum, worlds apart Two faces of omnipotence, in the cosmic heart [Verse 2] Then came Q, with a wink and a grin A being of the Continuum, with powers within Testing humanity, pushing them to the test With clever tricks and trials, he'd put them to rest [Chorus] Trelane and Q, two entities divine One immature, one cunning, with powers that shine Gothos and the Continuum, worlds apart Two faces of omnipotence, in the cosmic heart [Bridge] Trelane's ego drove him, a selfish desire While Q's motives were complex, a cosmic fire One sought amusement, the other, growth Two paths of omnipotence, in the Star Trek troth [Verse 3] Trelane's powers were vast, but unrefined Q's abilities, precise, with a subtle design A difference in intent, a difference in might Two faces of godhood, in the Star Trek light [Chorus] Trelane and Q, two entities divine One immature, one cunning, with powers that shine Gothos and the Continuum, worlds apart Two faces of omnipotence, in the cosmic heart [Outro] So here's to Trelane and Q, two beings of old Their stories forever told, in the Star Trek fold A tale of power, of growth, of might A cosmic exploration, through day and night.
