To the tune of Around her Neck.
Around her neck she wore a very long
scarf!
She wore it in the springtime and in
the month of May,
And if you asked her why the heck she
wore it,
She wore it for a Time Lord
Who was
very far away!
Far away! Far away! She wore it for a
Time Lord who was very far away!
On her side she wears a shiny new gun.
She wears it in the springtime and in
the month of May!
And if you asked her, "Why the heck she
wears it?"
She wears it for a Brigadier
Who is very
Far away!
Far away!
Far away!
She wore it for a Brigadier
Who was very far away!
On her shirt she wears a golden star
She wears it in the springtime and in
the month of May
And if you asked her, "Why the heck she
wears it?"
She wears it for Adric who is very far
away!
Far away! Far away!
She wears it for
Adric
who is very far away!
At her feet there sits a Metal Doggie.
He sits there in the Springtime and in
the month of May.
And if you asked him "why the heck he
sits there?"
He sits there for our Savage who is very
far away.
Far away! Far away!
He sits there for
Our Savage who is very far away!

Words by Elizabeth Hensley
(To the tune of, "West Texas Town of El Paso.")
One day while the Enterprise sailed
Cross the galaxy
Looking for worlds where thinking resides,
They came cross an Alien with eyes blue as Earth’s skies
And love in his hearts a whole galaxy wide!
Oh give me these wild velvet skies!
You can let planets go hang!
This is the way to be
So completely free.
Doctor and Enterprise know how to live!
Wild is the winds of Antares and Rigel!
Traveling the worlds in a box colored blue!
Long scarf and Tin Dog and coat full of candy!
He was the gentlest Being that They knew!
Oh give me these wild velvet skies!
You can let planets go hang!
This is the way to be
So completely free.
Doctor and Enterprise know how to live!
The Vulcan was intrigued to find such a time ship
Shaped like a police box all peeling and blue!
Bigger inside than it is on the outside.
Beyond any tech that the Federation knew!
The Time-Lord was happy to find
a big Star ship
Full of Beings as kind as himself
Shaped like a Peace Dove,
So shining and pretty:
A ship full of tall Imps and one stoic Elf!
Oh give me these wild velvet skies!
You can let planets go hang!
This is the way to be
So completely free.
Doctor and Enterprise know how to live!
