From the engines below to the stars up high
A Russian navigator and a daring guy
I'm bold, I'm brash, from the town of Saint Pete
I'll argue to the death that Russia can't be beat
Vessel bound with the speed of light
Plotting courses through the endless night
Pavel Chekov with a grin so wide
A helmsman's pride and a Russian stride
Captain, I swear I just saved the day
With a photon burst, I cleared the way
Nuclear vessels? I know the score
But if it's vodka you want, I'll bring some more
Vessel bound with the speed of light
Plotting courses through the endless night
Pavel Chekov with a grin so wide
A helmsman's pride and a Russian stride
Why can't you tell what I'm saying, Alameda
I've said it five times, but you keep saying "huh?"
I found the nuclear vessel, so we can lift off
Of course I know my name-it's Admiral Chekov!
Admiral!
Admiral!
Admiral!
With a scream and a fall, I take my hits
But no Seti eel can keep me splits
My loyalty's strong, my courage refined
And in the darkest void, I keep my mind
Vessel bound with the speed of light
Plotting courses through the endless night
Pavel Chekov with a grin so wide
A helmsman's pride and a Russian stride
From Mother Russia to the galaxy's rim
From the best of times to the worst of them
One last thing I've got to mention
I'm a Starfleet hero
And a Russian invention
