The most awesomest cover EVER!
An acoustic performance of the original Star Trek with lyrics, performed by Tenacious D (you heard me).
It is from an excerpt from The Nerdist Podcast hosted by Chris Hardwick (on Twitter: @nerdist)(Podcast released on April 16, 2012).
(Warning...subjectively mild NSFW expletives)
I have three versions. The first with a long introduction, the second with just a short intro, and finally for those with no patience...just the song.
Choose wisely.
And here are the lyrics to "Where No Man Has Gone Before"…
“Okay…here we go.

And here are the lyrics to "Where No Man Has Gone Before"…
“Okay…here we go.
Beyond
the rim of the star light,
my love
is wandering in star flight.
I know…
he’ll find in star clustered reaches,
love,
strange love a star woman teaches.
And I know
his journey ends never.
His STAR TREK
must go on forever.
But tell him
as wanders
the starry sea….
Remember…
remember meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Cha cha cha!”
Enjoy your knish.
