Find a Way Back Home

This is a filk I (jedikatie) wrote based on "Suicide is Painless", the theme song of M*A*S*H (which did have words, but they only used them in the movie), which was written by Johnny Mandel and Mike Altman. Hope you like it.

All characters belong to the PTB, not to me, who isn't getting a dime for this, just doing it for fun, so please don't sue me.

Through the darkness of space I see,
Crais's carrier coming for me,
A blood crazed commander is he,
Oh why won't he just let me be?

'Cause there's aliens left and right,
who want to kill me on sight,
and all I want is to find a way back home...

I'm Rygel, sixteenth of my line,
My stolen throne, my so-called crime,
Tortured for arns at a time,
For Hyneria I do pine...

'Cause there's aliens left and right,
who want to kill me on sight,
and all I want is to find a way back home...

Zhaan, who is the beautiful priest,
Kills her love with her inner beast,
Breaking her vows mattered the least,
For our lovely Delvian priest...

'Cause there's aliens left and right,
who want to kill me on sight,
and all I want is to find a way back home...

Warrior D'Argo loved and lost,
His pretty wife's life was the cost,
By Macton's fury he was tossed,
Now searches for the son he lost...

'Cause there's aliens left and right,
who want to kill me on sight,
and all I want is to find a way back home...

Chiana vamps her way through life,
Both in times of peace and of strife,
And she's talented with a knife,
You'd better watch out for your life...

'Cause there's aliens left and right,
who want to kill me on sight,
and all I want is to find a way back home...

Aeryn, radiant as the sun,
At first hated by all but one,
To Crais his life she gave for fun,
While she threatened him with her gun...

'Cause there's aliens left and right,
who want to kill me on sight,
and all I want is to find a way back home...

John, through a wormhole he was shot,
And by Scorpius he was caught,
The comfy chair found what both sought,
But at what price had it been bought?

'Cause there's aliens left and right,
who want to kill me on sight,
and all I want is to find a way back home...

All we want is to find our way back home.
