"Rightful Heir," the return of the great Keh'less, sung to the tune of "Master of the House."

Keh'less
Enter Klingons,
Sit yourselves down
And meet the only Keh'less around.
Yes it is true,
I have returned
And all who doubt shall soon be spurned;
Ere the battle's won, ere our honors tried
Your glory is assured with me by your side...
Master of the blade, honor tried and true,
Finest of your warriors, I've come to you,
Cherish Klingon ways, honour to be found,
Blood of your opponents spilled upon the ground
From the afterlife I've journeyed, glorious to lead you all,
I will lead the storm that's coming, my resolve will never fall
Master of the fight, I have come to see
If the Klingon Empire remembers me,
Unforgettable, I shall be again,
Future Klingon bards will sing the songs of when
Great Keh'less returned to guide us,
The future is within our sight,
With us all united,
We shall show the Galaxy our Might!"
All
Master my Keh'less, stalwart true and strong
We remember you, but you've been gone so long
Now that you've returned what are we to do?
Shall we follow Gowron or stand by you?
What are we to do great Keh'less? give us your advice today?
Keh'less
If you follow me then I shall never lead you all astray...
Enter, Gowron
Bow to my might
Follow my will
And follow the light
You lead them now
But not for long
I will lead them
When you are gone
Now we'll take a stand
Now we'll fight anew
And then it will be grand
Like the times I knew
Gowron
Master of the farce
Master of the lie
I've known it all along
But there's a valiant try
You are not Keh'less
That I know is real
I shall not bow down to you
But you should kneel
If you feel that you can beat me
I'm challenging your sovereign claim
There's nothing in your eyes;
Keh'less would have eyes that burn with flame
Worf
It shall be glorious!
Gowron
It shall become war!
Worf, do you not realize what you stand for?
He is not the One we all bow down to,
He may look like Keh'less, yes, I know it's true
But he's not the real Keh'less--he has no skill with the blade!
Do not follow Keh'less! Why don't you all see through his charade?!
All
Master my Keh'less, stalwart true and strong
You said you'd return, but you've been gone so long
Now that you've returned what are we to do?
Shall we follow Gowron or stand by you?
What are we to do great Keh'less? give us your advice tonight?
Keh'less
If you follow me then I will steer the Klingon Empire right...
Worf
I used to dream that I would meet Keh'less,
But since I fought him I respect him less and less
Gowron
"Master my Keh'less" is not worth my spit;
All that he shall do is make the Empire split
He is not the one,
He is not that great
Reconstructed, falsified from DNA
He is not the real Keh'less
He has not returned, that's true.
If you follow Keh'less, it shall be defeat for all of you...
All
Master my Keh'less
Gowron
Is not worth a toss
Keh'less
Stalwart, glorious, and strong
Gowron
'Twill be your loss
He is is not the one
He is not that great
Worf
Let him be a figure-head--
Preserve the State.
All
Everybody bow to Keh'less
Do the same for Gowron too
Worf
Everybody give a shout!
Keh'less
Shout 'cause your masters are stout!
All
Everybody give a shout
For the Keh'less' return
