Quelltext der Seite A British Tar

'''"A British Tar"''' ist ein Lied in der Operetta [[HMS Pinafore|HMS ''Pinafore'']] und wurde von den [[Mensch|irdischem]] Musikerduo [[Gilbert und Sullivan]] komponiert. Im Jahr [[2375]] benutzten [[Captain]] [[Jean-Luc Picard]] und [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Worf]] die Komposition um [[Data]] abzulenken, damit die Beiden ihn gefangen nehmen konnten. Er hatte nähmlich aufgrund eines Angriffs auf ihn eine Fehlfunktion und musste demnach wieder auf die [[USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-E)|''Enterprise'']] gebracht werden (''[[Star Trek: Der Aufstand]]'')

==Text==
''A British tar is a soaring soul,''<br>
''As free as a mountain bird,''<br>
''His energetic fist should be ready to resist ''<br>
''A dictatorial word. ''<br>
''His nose should pant, ''<br>
''and his lip should curl,''<br>
''His cheeks should flame''<br>
''and his brow should furl,''<br>
''His bosom should heave, ''<br>
''and his heart should glow,''  <br>
''And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow.''<br>

''His nose should pant and his lip should curl, ''<br>
''His cheeks should flame and his brow should furl,'' <br>
''His bosom should heave and his heart should glow, ''<br>
''And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow.''<br>

''His eyes should flash with an inborn fire, ''<br>
''His brow with scorn be wrung; ''<br>
''He never should bow down to a domineering frown, ''<br>
''Or the tang of a tyrant tongue. ''<br>

''His foot should stamp,''<br>
''and his throat should growl, ''<br>
''His hair should twirl,''<br>
''and his face should scowl,  ''<br>
''His eyes should flash,''<br>
''and his breast protrude,''<br>
''And this should be his customary attitude. ''<br>

''His foot should stamp, and his throat should growl, ''<br>
''His hair should twirl, and his face should scowl; ''<br>
''His eyes should flash, and his breast protrude, ''<br>
''And this should be his customary attitude, his attitude, his attitude, his attitude.''
