Star Trek: The Space Opera

"Yesterdays Enterprise," to the tune of "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables"

Picard
The Federation's almost broken...
There's a chance we won't go on
Empty posts on empty bridges
Will be all that's left anon
Guinan
If they don't go back in time now,
We will surely meet defeat;
In this neutral zone position,
Our demise shall be complete
Picard
Not good enough, dammit, Guinan!
I have trusted you thus far,
But I need more information...
And I need it now!
The very words that you now speak...
Confuse the situation...
At this temporal displacement... in space...

Oh my friends, my friends forgive me
For you have not lived to see
Gallant starship in the view screen: 1701-C

Gallant starship in the view screen, of a chance we can't ignore
If we send tham back to slaughter, we could avert this tragic war

Oh, Captain Garret please forgive me, but I must ask you to go back
We cannot wage another battle, or live through one more attack…
