(instrumental opening)

(Kirk)
I look through the viewscreen
as stars they go passing by.
I say to myself,
"You're such a lucky guy
to have a guy like Spock
at Science in shirt of blue."
But of all the fellows on the ship
he annoys, it's true.

(Spock)
But it is just Vulcan fascination
running away with me.
Yes, it is just Vulcan fascination
running away with me.

(Soon!)
(McCoy)
Soon, we're gonna beam down
and get some good shore leave.
(Oh yeah!)

(Scotty)
Some relaxin' with a nice glass of Scotch.
I'm having two of them, maybe three
I tell ya, aye.
(Aye!)
(Aye!)

(Kirk)
Chekov gets drunk and screams.

(Chekov)
But Keptin, that Scotch was inwented
in Russia, it sure seems!

(Spock)
But it is just Vulcan fascination
once again
running away with me.
Yes, it is just Vulcan fascination
running away with me.

(McCoy)
Every night! On my knees I pray...

(Rest of Crew)
Dear Lord!

(McCoy)
Hear my plea:
Please let another Captain take that Spock away from me
or I will surely die!

(Spock)
Emotions?

(McCoy)
Logically!
When your logic hits me
I hear a bad cacophony.

(Spock, arching an eyebrow)
Then, in reality
he doesn't really know me.

(Just Vulcan fascination)
Once again
running away with me.
Yes, it is just Vulcan fascination
running away with me.

(Kirk)
Running this ship 'n' my patience is slippin'...

(Just Vulcan fascination)
(Spock)
Affirmative
running away with me.
Yes, it is just Vulcan fascination
running away with me.
