The Noble Captain Kirk Song

May 13, 2013 1 Comment

Everyone familiar with the Star Trek series knows how much they like to beam people back and forth the transporter, despite all of the weird episodes which seem to result from transporter incidents. So sing this Star Trek song as a tribute to the series.

The Noble Captain Kirk song is sung to the same tune as the Grand Old Duke of York. And the actions are also similar. When you say “Up” everyone stands up. When you say “Down” everyone squats down. And when you say “Halfway Up” you are somewhere in the middle.

This song would go well with a  science theme .

The Noble Captain Kirk Star Trek Song

Sing to the tune of  Grand Old Duke of York

The noble Captain Kirk, he had 500 men.
He beamed them up to the Enterprise,
And he beamed down again.

And when they’re up, they’re up,
And when they’re down, they’re down,
And when they’re only halfway up,
They’re nowhere to be found.

    I made a copy of this for the annual Day Camp Counselor/Chiefs and they used it as the opening of the Campfire! My son & I were so excited to see it done as the whole camp and all the parents and families participated. Everyone laughed as we did it in “warp speed!” Thanks so much for this website it’s awesome! 🙂
