About a rebel crew I'll sing
say rickety-tickety-tin
About a rebel crew I'll sing
They blew up Federation things
Around pursuit ships they flew rings
While fighting for liberty, berty,
While fighting for liberty
Now Roj Blake led this rebel crew
say rickety-tickety-tin
Yes, Roj Blake led this rebel crew
There was no mission he'd not do
No danger he'd not lead them to
Which is why he will never grow old, grow old,
Which is why he will never grow old
The genius there was Kerr Avon
say rickety-tickety-tin
The genius there was Kerr Avon
But he and Blake did not get on
When from his crew Blake once was gone
Kerr Avon took over the ship, the ship,
Kerr Avon took over the ship
Oh, Vila Restal was a thief
say rickety-tickety-tin
Yes Vila Restal was a thief
Kerr Avon gave him lots of grief
When Vila said he'd like to leave
Avon took him to Malodaar, odar,
Avon took him to Malodaar
Now Jenna was a smuggler lass
say rickety-tickety-tin
Aye, Jenna was a smuggler lass
But Roj Blake treated her like glass
Leaving the ship she was always last
So she left him for parts unknown, unknown,
She left him for parts unknown
Cally was their alien
say rickety-tickety-tin
Yes Cally was their alien
A telepath who could only send
She once was kissed by Kerr Avon
Soon after she was dead, was dead,
Soon after she was dead
The tough guy there was Olag Gan
say rickety-tickety-tin
The tough guy there was Olag Gan
Inside he was a gentleman
While holding a door for the rest of them
It smashed him into two, to two,
It smashed him into two
Now Dayna was an orphan gal
say rickety-tickety-tin
Yes Dayna was an orphan gal
With a talent for bombs, and a taste for Del
In both she attempted to excel
And she always got her man, her man,
She always got her man
Del Tarrant was a Space Cadet
say rickety-tickety-tin
Del Tarrant was a Space Cadet
And his mistakes he'd soon forget
Like losing on that poker bet
And having to go down to Virn, to Virn,
And having to go down to Virn
A quick-draw killer was Soolin
say rickety-tickety-tin
A quick-draw killer was Soolin
With Avon's crew she soon fit in
When Vila needed a bobby pin
She was using them all in her hair, her hair,
She was using them all in her hair
Supreme Commander Servalan
say rickety-tickety-tin
Supreme Commander Servalan
Could care less of Blake's rebel plans
But when Kerr Avon took command
She went after him on her own, her own,
She went after him on her own
Travis was her number one
say rickety-tickety-tin
Yes Travis was her number one
He wanted Blake before his gun
So he sold out to Andromedans
Travis was just a little insane, insane,
Travis was just a little insane
They had Orac, Slave, and Zen
say rickety-tickety-tin
Yes they had Orac, Slave and Zen
And they were Avon's closest friends
Looking for Blake made him kill Zen
So he shot Blake down on sight, on sight,
He shot Blake down on sight
About a rebel crew I've sung
say rickety-tickety-tin
About a rebel crew I've sung
And if we are no longer young
You should have thought before I'd begun
And never have let me begin, begin,
And never have let me begin
