I am the Leader of the Scorpio

by Chris Blenkarn

After: "I am the Captain of the Pinafore," from HMS Pinafore by Gilbert and Sullivan

Avon: I am the leader of the Scorpio
All: And a ruthless leader too.
Avon: Though my manners are refined
I'm to vengefulness inKlyned
As Shrinker will confirm to you.
All: Though his manners are refined
He's to vengefulness inKlyned
As Shrinker will confirm to you.
Avon: Much torture I'll go through
To locate Bartholomew
My resolve it is supreme
When my scheme comes to fruition
I shall cut off the transmission
And I'll never give a single scream.
All: What, never?
Avon: No, never.
All: What, never?
Avon: Well, hardly ever.
All: He'll never give a single scream
So give three cheers and a cheerio
For the stubborn leader of the Scorpio (Rpt)
Avon: I am the leader of the Scorpio
All: And we're his lucky crew.
Avon: My glare it is like ice
I don't like explaining twice
And I do not like the name, Chesku.
All: His glare it is like ice
Doesn't like explaining twice
And he doesn't the name, Chesku.
Avon: I'm fed up with all this leather
And space travel altogether
I need a holiday
She took all my trust for Granted
But now I'm disenchanted
Though I never would you all betray.
All: What, never?
Avon: No, never.
All: What, never?
Avon: Well now, hardly ever.
All: He never would us all betray?
So give three cheers and a cheerio
For the grim-faced leader of the Scorpio (Rpt)
