The Great Director

Sung to: “The Great Pretender” by The Platters

A Star Trek V Parody by The Slime Devils

OH, YES, I’M THE GREAT DIRECTOR
FILMING WITH A PLOT OF MY OWN
I’LL MAKE SCOTTY A KLUTZ
AND UHURA A SLUT
AND GIVE SULU NO LINES OF HIS OWN.
OH, YES, I’M THE GREAT DIRECTOR
MY NAME IN THE CREDITS ABOUND
I’M IN EVERY SCENE
I WON’T STAY OFF THE SCREEN
I’M THE REASON STAR TREK’S STILL AROUND.

SO REAL IS THIS FEELING I MAKE BELIEVE
SO MANY THE OSCARS THAT I WILL RECEIVE

(NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO)

YES, I’M THE GREAT DIRECTOR
PRETENDING THAT I’M DOING WELL
STAR TREK FIVE’S MADE BIG BUCKS
BUT THE CRITICS SAY IT SUCKS
I DIRECTED AND EVERYONE CAN TELL
TOO BAD, I’LL DO TREK SIX AS WELL

(OH, WELL)
