M-5 just wigs out
There’s no reasoning with it
Daystrom is hubris

Starfleet gets chintzy
M-5 means major layoffs
Kirk talks it to death

Captain Ron Tracy
Made some rather big mistakes
He’s under arrest

AND

Oh say can you see
This particular “Star Trek”
Gets really hokey

That’s a real pickle
Hijacked, turned to crumbly blocks
Stimulate them, Kirk

The Prime Directive
Is there for a good reason
Things always go wrong

AND

Hey! Another chance
To use other shows’ costumes
Gotta save money

When you swap bodies
A lot of things can go wrong
Risk was their business

Klingons interfered
Kirk brings balance of power
An arms race begins

AND

In this episode,
Spock gets shot, McCoy is grazed
And Kirk is poisoned

Four hundred Vulcans
Died and now Kirk must destroy
The space amoeba

AND

What does the title
Have to do with anything
In this episode?

Two things for certain:
Kirk and Spock look good in suits
Kirk’s a good mob boss

AND

Come over tonight
Bring Tommy guns and pretzels
We’re playing Fizzbin

AND

Impressionable
Must watch what you say and do
This planet mimics

This episode is
So gladiatorial
You know Kirk will win

AND

So who is behind
This trip into slavery?
Three sad gambling brains

AND

Haven’t you learned, yet?
Don’t doubt Mr. Spock. He knows
His role in the plot
