Prometheus

from Release the Unreleased! by Tom Smith

/

about

Ridley Scott's new vision is actually the back story for nearly all of his old visions. But that's not the scary part -- the scary part is what today's fannish community will do with it. You will notice a couple of jokes in the lyrics that I didn't have the chance to record -- I spent three hours dealing with a crashing computer. So just kinda... picture them... in your mind....

lyrics

When the moon is dark with flashing lights
A spaceship wreck... and some eggs
Then please... don’t look inside one
Or some... thing might hug your face!

This is the dawning of the alien, Prometheus,
Alien Prometheus.
Prometheus,
Prometheus!

Architecture strange and tricky
H. R. Giger made it i-i-icky
We went through this once in Nineteen
Seventy-Nine, and that was plenty
Ridley Scott’s insane, you bet,
Ellen Ripley’s not grown up just yet
Prometheus,
Prometheus!

When the crew is chewed to pieces
And everything is drenched in gore
Then please... don’t make a prequel,
Although we fear the fanfic more!

This is the spawning of the AU Prometheus,
The AU Prometheus,
Prometheus,
Prometheus!

Let the Spongebob, let the Spongebob in,
The Spongebob in!
And the Hunger, and the Hunger Games,
It's all the same!
My Little Ponies, and the Pokemon
And Dragon... ball Z!
Ja... cob and Edward, Bar...nabas Collins
Could kick both your ass!
With the Doctor and his companions,
His com-panions! (Rory’s dead again)
X-men/aliens, brooding everywhere,
And Ski-ittles Hulks (taste the rainbow!)
Now with Sherlock,
Grimm, and Once Upon
and Once... Upon A Time.
Aven... gers assemble,
The Green Lantern Corps,
And Batman once more....
