How does a washed up, widowed, son of a Nawlins restauranteur

Sent to the middle of a forgotten

Spot near to Cardassia by Providence encountering a wormhole

Then get to be a Captain and Messiah?

That three-pipped redshirt Commander, a single father

Went a lot farther by being a lot tougher

By being a lot rougher, by gatherin’ blood brothers

By Season 4, he turned into a badass muthafucka

And every day while ships were being shuttled to the Gamma

He learned to love Bajorans even though he didn’t wanna

Inside he was longing for something to be a part of

The brother was ready to build a family to be proud of

The Dominion came and devastation rained

Our man saw his principles dripping down the drain

Entered the Celestial Temple, where he went against the grain

Even though he felt the strain, unlike Dukat he still stayed sane

Well the word got around, everyone came to the station

Klingons and Ferengi, aliens without cessation

Prophets in the wormhole bringing trials and tribble-lations

And the whole Quadrant knew his name

What’s his name, man?

Captain Benjamin Sisko

My name is Captain Benjamin Sisko

And I have 7 seasons left to go

So just you wait

Just you wait…

      If voice-replicating deep fake AI cannot do this for us, then I believe it has no purpose and we should burn it all down.

      Also Garak singing Aaron Burr’s part:

      Talk less

      Smile more

      Don’t let them know what you’re against or what you’re for

      You wanna get ahead?

      Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead

      I could see that as a conversation with Bashir.

      literally the same song

      ok I could see him doing a shatner-esque sing talk thing with the “da da da’s”

    Now I gotta go listen to ol’ Frankie Blue Eyes. I prefer Sisko and Fontaine’s version though.
