William Blake’s Seven

Rebel! Rebel! join the fight
In The Federation’s blight,
What terrible, heartless plan
Could be hatched by fair Servelan?

At what distant worlds or stars
Lie the truth beyond our scars?
What ship could even up the score?
The System’s great Liberator.

What man could ever unite,
Criminals bound in their flight?
Turn to cause for all our sake?
Earthling dissident – Roj Blake.

Break computers? Avon’s skill.
Locks, drinks, women? Vila’s thrill.
Trade with Jenna in an alley.
Free your mind with beauty, Cally.

Deadly daughter, Dayna kills,
Orac’s calculations chill,
Tarrant flies, standard by ten,
Force walls, cannons, fired by Xen.

Gan the mighty man of power,
Soolin’s fast-draw, all are slower.
Slave the AI without Malice,
Threatened by Commander Travis.

Rebel! Rebel! join the fight
In The Federation’s blight,
Battle now we’re out of time
Heroes fall at Gauda Prime
