<\/object><\/object><\/p>\n

I cried when Spock died in “The Wrath of Khan”
\nMy heart skipped a beat when Leia kissed Han
\nBut when I saw you at the Bi-Mon-Sci-Fi-Con
\nI didn’t feel like a loser<\/p>\n

You’ll forgive me if I seem a little timid or shy
\nI’m not what you’d call a self-confident guy
\nAnd I’ve never kissed a girl, but I’d like to try
\nSo I’ll ask you if you like Doctor Who<\/p>\n

Then I’ll sweep you off your feet
\nTake you to Sha Ka Ree above
\nWe’ll sweat through my blood fever
\nAnd fulfill our geeky love
\nWhen you laughed at Leonard Nimoy’s jokes, you changed my world
\nI could be your Captain Kirk if you would be my green-skinned girl<\/p>\n

I get a little queasy every time you appear
\nMy heart is like a starship, and you’re the one who steers
\nI know I’m pretty smooth after a couple of beers
\nOr a flagon of Romulan ale<\/p>\n

So I’ll lock my phasers, set my sights on you
\nThis isn’t no-win, no Kobayashi Maru
\nAnd now here you come, I don’t know what to do
\nI’m like Spock without his brain<\/p>\n

I’m staring at my feet
\nWith Ewok fireworks above
\nI’m not dancing with the princess
\nI can’t express my geeky love
\nYou hold the cards; you turn the screws
\nI’m trapped in Carbonite
\nYou’re every fanboy’s fantasy; I should take you home tonight<\/p>\n

But love is a Thoalian Web of contradictions
\nAnd my fear controls my movements like the Force
\nYou don’t know your own power
\nYou could let me off the hook
\nWith a single Vulcan mind meld
\nOr a sly come-hither look<\/p>\n

Then you’ll hit me with a smile
\nLike a rainbow up above
\nWithin seconds, I’m unfrozen
\nFalling into geeky love
\nI will lay you on my Star Wars sheets
\nWe’ll make like it’s Pon Farr
\nAnd we’ll live in our obsessions
\nWith our heads caught in the stars<\/p>\n
