Seussin' Coup by Clam
Ok, I'm gonna try to Seuss,
Episode 10, Coup By Clam.
Any of y'all still laughin' out there?
Cause I know I sure am

So Sikozu only eats ten times a cycle,
And when she does, she eats everything in sight.
She even out-eats Rygel
Man, that just don't seem right

Moya needs a mechanic,
Poor Moya, she's sufferin' again.
But a doctor must check the crew for diseases,
A mechanic won't come aboard until then

The doctor gives them a clean bill of health,
But he poisons them, now they're not so healthy.
For a large amount of currency he'll cure them.
Hmmmm, a doctor who makes people sick to get wealthy!!


Now "Doc Snot" hasn't got enough antidote,
He only has enough to cure two,
And it involves drinkin' each others urine,
I'd like to pause now...to say "EWWWW"!!

It seems women on the planet are surpressed,
And they use the poison to get back at the men.
And they're the only ones who would have the antidote
So Aeryn and Sikozu go to get some from them

That plan doesn't work and they're captured
I think the leader thinks they're some sort of spies
So Rygel and John gotta save them,
But they just can't go in there as....guys!

John and Rygel, dressed as women, hee hee!
Rygel says, "Blend in", yeah, right!
John says," BLEND IN? Hell we got here the clock
stopped!
We couldn't blend in on butt-ugly night!!"

Now here's where THAT walk comes in handy,
I knew that it would, some day.
See! It's not just me who goes crazy,
To see that man walk that way!!

Now John's gettin' pawed by a slime-ball,
Who actually thinks that he has a chance.
Oh boy, John, you better be careful
Somethin' tells me he wants more than a dance!!

At first I thought Sikozu was bein' heroic,
When she offered her finger that way.
Then I remembered she can re-attach it
But it was a nice thing to do anyway.

Scorpy then eats some of the mollusks
In an attempt to help out the crew.
Not sure if it was gonna help,
But it was an interestin' thing for him to do.

And John's gettin' into more trouble,
The guy knows he's not what he seems.
And I'm not sure that I caught this right,
Does he think John is the man of his dreams??

(Hey, someone wanted a gay character,
I think that's exactly what we got.
Think his role will be recurring?
I'd say, uh, probably not)

Scorpy's plan works and the girls escape
(Loved the look on Aeryn's face when she saw John)
And John sayin', "S'cuse me, do any of you have one of
these?"
And he pulls up the skirt he had on.

He pulls out a pair of pulse pistols,
And proceeds to shoot up the place.
Meanwhile Rygel, who found the mollusks,
Is shovin' them in the docs face.

Now they're all gonna be fine,
They've taken the cure.
Don't think they'll be eatin' more clams,
You can bet that's for sure

Oh, and I'm sure y'all noticed,
That from beginning to close,
Never, not once did Crichton,
Stick anything up his nose!!

So, was it strange? Was it weird?
Were parts effectively gross?
Hell yeah!! This is Farscape!
They take more risks than most.

And man, it made me laugh!
Hell, I'm laughin' still!
I am entertained by Farscape,
And I always will!!

So buckle up, stay in your seats,
And keep your hands inside.
Cause remember, this is Farscape,
And we're in for a ride!!

It'll twist and turn, and go upside - down,
And you'll be sayin', "Hey, what's the deal??"
Relax, be patient, and hold on tight,
As together, we wait for the wheel!
