Intro
Warren Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ensign: Captain, the transporters ready
Captain: That's hip Lieutenant Marvin, what is the condition
of the planets surface?
Marvin: It is difficult to be precise However, my instruments
indicate a condition of extreme rigor mortis, spreading rapidly
throughout the population Highly illogical, Captain
Captain: A bunch of stiffs, huh? Well, set coordinates for, ah,
Chocolate City, and have a landing party of nine men beam down
immiediately, with phasers set on funk-funk!
The lyrics to Warren's song Intro are a short dialogue between the captain and crew of a spaceship discussing the conditions they have found on a planet they are exploring. The beeping of the alert signal signifies that the transporters are ready for the landing party to beam down to the planet's surface. The captain asks Lieutenant Marvin about the condition of the planet's surface and Marvin replies that it is difficult to be precise, but his instruments indicate a condition of extreme rigor mortis, spreading rapidly throughout the population. This statement is followed by the captain's remark on how highly illogical it is for the entire population to be dead.
The dialogue between the captain and Marvin is reminiscent of the language and themes of the popular sci-fi show Star Trek. The captain's remark on a bunch of stiffs is a nod to the humor and quips associated with sci-fi shows. The reference to Chocolate City in the last line of the song is a nod to a nickname given to Washington D.C., due to its large African American population. The landing party of nine men is instructed to beam down with phasers set on funk-funk, which could reference the funky music scene in the African American community of Washington D.C.
