I finally downloaded that song. It was funny. That group sings about a lot
of Star Trek things, don't they? They also recorded "Never Trust a Klingon".
I thought, since they're making fun of Klingons, that someone from the
Klingon community should reply in a kind of mu'qaD veS format against the
humans.

"Never Trust A Klingon"
by S.P.O.C.K., 1992
Chorus:
Never ever never trust a Klingon
You will always regret it
Never ever never trust a Klingon
You will never forget it
The Klingon bastards flies around
Always ready for some war
They don't care about any rules at all
As long as they could kill some more
Evil barbarians without discipline
Unpredictiable death machine
Repeat chorus
With their cloaking device they remain invisible
Until the time has come
To appear right ahead of us
And obliterate everyone
If you ever would give them a helping hand
You can be sure they'll chop of the arm
Repeat chorus
They're cruel,
They're mean,
They're bad,
And they're ugly.
They're evil, vicious, ruthless bastards,
And they stink.
Repeat chorus

And for the benefit of the beginners, a translation (tho not nearly as
poetic as the original Klingon).
"Never Cooperate with a Human"
by Guido, 2001
[chorus]
Never ever ever cooperate with a human.
You will definitely regret the event.
Never ever ever cooperate with a human.
You will definitely never recover from the event.
The human p'etakh's are flying everywhere,
They're ready to participate due to any dishonorable opportunity.
They're always making up unnecessary rules,
If the strategy will make them suddenly wealthy.
They don't recognize honor, they have no discipline,
The useless organization of fools.
[repeat chorus]
In boring meetings they conduct deceptive diplomacy,
Then they order up a disagreeable plan:
After they force respect for their authority,
They immediately betray their promise of cooperation.
If you challenge them by honorable retaliation,
They'll allege false crimes against you.
[repeat chorus]
They're quite weak,
They're quite soft,
They're quite bad,
And they're quite ugly.
They're evil, greedy, and disgusting, those T'ax'keks,
And they drool.
So there.
