Or you could have just checked post #338 😃

I like this quote better when it includes the previous sentence (“It won’t die”), but that’s just me.

It’s embarrassing, **but:**

“To deny the facts would be illogical.”

Oh, on the Starship Enterprise There’s someone who’s in Satan’s guise, Whose devil’s ears and devil’s eyes Could rip your heart from you!  
At first his look could hypnotize, And then his touch would barbarize.  
His alien love could victimize… And rip your heart from you!  
And that’s why female astronauts Oh very female astronauts Wait terrified and overwrought To find what he will do.  
Oh girls in space, be wary, be wary, be wary!  
Girls in space, be wary! We know not what he’ll do.
