THETA SIGMA (aka, The Legend of Dr Who)
(tune: Davy Crocket, King of the Wild Frontier)
Born on a mountain top on Gallifrey,
The greenest place there could ever be.
Raised in the wilds where he felt so free,
Killed him a Dalek when he was only three.
Theta, Theta Sigma!
Last of those old Timelords.
He fought the War Lord and his games of war,*
Till the Aliens were whipped and peace was restored.
And while he was doing this risky chore,
Made himself a legend, forevermore.
Theta, Theta Sigma!
Last of those old Timelords.
When he left Sarah Jane, and his grief was gall,**
In his hearts he wanted to leave it all,
And lose himself in a Vortex Fall,
But instead he answered the Council’s call.
Theta, Theta Sigma!
Last of those old Timelords.
Off to the Citadel and served a spell,
Fixin’ up the government and laws as well.
Took over Gallifrey, so we hear tell,
And patched up a crack in Rassilon’s Bell!
Theta, Theta Sigma
Last of those old Timelords.
He came to Earth, his politickin’ done,
The Slitheen plot had just begun,
Then he met his Rose and together they won,***
And lit out a grinnin’ to follow the sun.
Theta, Theta Sigma!
Last of those old Timelords.
Born on a mountain top on Gallifrey,
The greenest place there could ever be.
Raised in the wilds where he felt so free,
Killed him a Dalek when he was only three.
Theta, Theta Sigma!
Last of those old Timelords.

Dr. Who is fun, and this latest version has been especially good - although I still like the version with the long multicolor knitted scarf! Your filk song rocks!

I am enjoying the newest series of Doc Who screening in Australia. He has a new sidekick and is just as daft as ever - in an incredibly clever way of course….are we allowed sonic screwdrivers on our travels??

While the Groucho Marxist in me will always favour the wit (minus sarcsm of the present Dr.) of Tom Baker #4, and yes the scarf was really something (made by whom? Mme. Guillotine?)
Great to see the series still lives. Raised my kids on them, they were fabulous morailty plays ans still are.
