  BARKER and FONTANA ROAST BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
                     by Lynn Barker and Dorothy Fontana


 (sung to the tune "My Favorite Things" from SOUND OF MUSIC)

Microns and hectares and novas and centons
Pulsars and turbos and parsecs and metrons
Used interchangably at every turn,
These are the things that make SF fans burn.

Centares, cylons, imperious leaders,
If you were a book, you would lose all your readers.
Great lords of COBOL have lead you astray.
Don't you know Earth is the opposite way?

(Chorus)
 Launch the vipers, hit the turbos, will you make it back?
 And when you are jumped by a Cylon patrol,
 Then all you can say is FRACK!

Adama and Boxey, Apollo, Athena
Starbuck and Boomer and poor dead Serena,
These are the characters who lead the way.
Wish that they had something clever to say.

Star systems, galaxies, and asteroids,
Dust clouds and starfields and small planetoids,
Science eludes you. You dazzle the eye,
But we know you're piling the felgercarb high.

(Chorus)
 Drink ambrosa, play at triad, wait for more attacks.
 Don't be concerned if in battle you die,
 The gods will just bring you back.

Scouting patrols and reconnaisance flights
Snap-rolls at light speed and other strange sights
Egyptian helmets that glow in the dark
How come the Cylons can miss such a mark?

GUNS OF NAVARRONE, HEAVEN CAN WAIT,
Classics like SHANE, and other cinema greats.
How about some stories that we haven't seen
Already done on the big silver screen?

(Chorus)
 Kill the Cylons, frustrate Baltar, hide the plot you lack.
 Just give us quality in all of your shows,
 Or all we can say is FRACK!
