recorded in a hot NYC apartment one night in summer 2009; this song has changed a lot since then. It is about Star Trek TOS love interest actress Angelique Pettyjohn:

resistance is futile.
----------------------------
Oh youre being petty john, its futile to resist
you died alone in a desert full of demons
i know you werent born yesterday, but you died a long time ago
long before you made your name out west
for thirty sequined sashes and a crown of plastic gems
you went and sold yourself and hid behind a saint
Oh youre being petty john
Oh youre being petty john
removing your sheep's clothing you entered heaven with a gun
by then the bells of hell were ringing day and night.
You found love in a ship's captain and had audience with the king
but still your legacy was in taking off your clothes.
Oh youre being petty john
Oh youre being petty john
Oh youre being petty john
Oh youre being petty john
