Beta Canon Blue Note

Intro

Mm-mm

Oh-oh

Mm-hmm

Intro Verse

Nineteen-sixty-seven, four-color beaming

No transporters, just paper dreaming

Gold Key had the keys, syndication keeping

Kirk a space cowboy, panels breathing

Verse 1

Bearclaw on point, Bryce on helm in blue

Chu-Sa chirping triage, Konom growling Qapla' too

DC let the beta-canon bloom

New crew of the panel, no rerun doom

Malibu on the habitat ring, 32 issues deep

Marvel brought the cadets, Omega, Nog can't sleep

Pike on Talos IV, before Kirk took the seat

Swapping stations, the license had to leap

Pre-Chorus

Every imprint turns the page

Every year another stage

Every month another age

Chorus

Mirror, mirror on the hull, ISS-D black and gold

Picard with dagger not a book, Troi never does what she's told

Terran Empire swing, do the Mirror War strut

dee-bop, ya-ree, betrayal in the cut

Mirror, mirror on the hull, do the Mirror War strut

Verse 2

Odo's rain on level five, shape-shiftin' blue note minor

Quark's got a corgi in cargo bay, latinum collared liner

Fool's Gold glitters, but loyalty pays the finer

Dominion War shadows, the constable gets lighter

Pre-Chorus

Every page is a new play

Every year pulls us away

Every chase finds its way

Chorus

Mirror, mirror on the hull, ISS-D black and gold

Picard with dagger not a book, Troi never does what she's told

Terran Empire swing, do the Mirror War strut

dee-bop, ya-ree, betrayal in the cut

Mirror, mirror on the hull, do the Mirror War strut

Bridge

Gold Key to IDW, beta's where we roam

Not canon but canon-ish, still feels like home

So spin it again, at Quark's after hours

Outro

Mm-mm

Oh-oh

Mm

Beta's where we roam
