To the tune of "My Sharona" by the Knack
My Bajoran
Lyrics and sung By Rick Moyer
(clip)
Ooh my little wrinkle nose, wrinkle nose
When you gonna go back to jail Bajoran?
Ooh you beam on down, beam on down
'splain it all to the captain Bajoran..
Never gonna stop, give it up
Such a snarky tude,
Head band with the hair so short
Always in awful mood
My, My, my I yi woo, M M M M My Bajoran
Your first name is the last, is the last
When you gonna give me a smile Bajoran?
Oh you're just an Ensign hon, an ensign hon
On a Starfleet mission Oh Ro Larin
Oh they let you out, for a bit, that's the plan
Admiral got you settin up for the Cardassian
My my my I yi woo, M M M M M My Bajoran
(clip)
Guinan she's a friend to you, a friend to you
Got you tight with Jean Luc -Bajoran
Orta lets you have ship, have a ship
Fool em with a sub light ruse Bajoran
Admiral's got a cold, oh so I'm told,
Dancin' diplomats not here
Way to jump your career
My, My, my I yi woo, M M M M My Bajoran
(repeat)
(clips)
Rooooo My Bajoran
Rooooo Oh Ro Larin
Rooooo My Bajoran
(clip)
Sorry for missing the comment this week. At a wedding yesterday and the eldest has gone away for the weekend which made Friday pretty crazy too. I was trying to rewatch the episode befor recording but just ran out of time.
Looking forward to listening though :)
Great ep. Just listening to Rick's song right now. Riker making her take off her earring really struck me as odd as well. Considering it's a religious thing I imagine Starfleet would let her keep it on.
Yep. Even Spock got to wear his IDIC back in TOS at times. Riker was just tossing his weight around.

I think he was actually tossing his beard around :D
But TNG doesn't recognise any form of religion ;)
Given the thin spread of Bajorans in Starfleet I'd actually be surprised if Riker recognised it as having religious significance.
It would have been in character for Ro to point it out. She was quick to point out the name thing, why not the religious significance of her earring? I guess it was also possible they didn't come up with that whole thing until DS9.
That's probably the case. Along with the whole Bajora thing, a number of bits and pieces seem to have been a bit fluid at this point.
That's the risk of going back after seven years of species development.
Another great show.. having so much fun catching up on all these older podcasts.. Ensign Ro is one of my favorite episodes of TNG.. always liked that character...
Great song Rick.. as always. :)
