Star Trek-themed parody of “Bohemian Rhapsody”
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
While queuing for the bus to work this morning, I randomly remembered one of the songs my dad subjected me to during my childhood. It was a Star Trek-themed parody of Bohemian Rhapsody, specifically, the opera section in the middle. I would have heard it sometime around 2005, give or take a couple of years, and I'm guessing my dad probably found it on LimeWire somewhere.
I don't remember all the lyrics, but it began with Kirk declaring:
I am the captain of the starship Enterprise
The "Bismillah" "No! We will not let you go!" section was replaced with Sulu suggesting successively-faster warp speeds, to which Kirk would respond with something like "No! That will be too damn slow!" The song ended with Spock declaring that something or other would "be illogical to me... to me... to meeeeeee~", followed by a brief section of the guitar solo as the track faded out.
Would anyone happen to know what this parody was, and who it was by? I'd ask my dad but I don't imagine he even remembers the song in question anymore.

I'll accept the downvotes as valid. I probably should have Googled the lyrics before asking it here, but I expected it to be more obscure than it actually was.

@Pelinore I think OP wanted something a little more operatic, perhaps similar to this treatment of Wrath of Khan. (though it's better in the original Klingon)

I'm pretty sure this is it.
According to the description is was recorded in 1996 by Kevin Barbare. I don't know how to answer without just including a link.
Here's a direct link to the video on Youtube if it doesn't play here.
Kirk: I am the captain of the Starship Enterprise.
Spock: Captain Kirk: This is Spock.
Please step on the transporter.
Scotty: Dilithium crystals!
Hit by Klingon missiles!
No!
McCoy: I'm a doctor!
Kirk: Not an actor!
McCoy: Not a milkman!
Kirk: What does that mean?
McCoy: And I'm sorry -- He's dead, Jim.
Chekov: Photon torpedo . . . !
Kirk: Lieutenant Uhura,
Open hailing frequencies
Uhura: Yes, Captain Kirk,
Opening hailing frequencies, sir
Kirk: Let's boldly go where no one's gone before!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha . . .
Beam me up, Mr. Scott;
Sulu, go to warp!
Sulu: Warp three, sir.
Kirk: No! That will be way too slow!
Sulu: Warp four, sir?
Kirk: That still is way too slow!
Sulu: Warp five, sir.
Kirk: It still is too damn slow!
Sulu: Warp six.
Kirk: It's too damn slow!
Sulu: Warp seven?
Kirk: It's still damn slow!
Chorus: It's too damn slow . . . !
Kirk: No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Mr. Chekov, Mr. Chekov --
Chekov: I am firing torpedo!
Spock: That will not work and would be illogical
To me, to me, to me . . . !
Some sources credit Weird Al and others claim it was originally created on something called "The Hill-Man Morning Show".

The parody you are looking for is likely Star Trek Rhapsody allegedly by Weird Al Yankovik. However, as suggested by other users, it's probably not the complete truth.
Kirk: I am the captain of the Starship Enterprise.

Are you sure it's Weird Al Yankovic's? Doesn't sound like one of his parodies at all.
– poepje
Jan 31 at 10:03
The linked website states it as that.

Jan 31 at 12:36
Weird Al would never have released something so bad. This would have ended his career. And there's no accordion. :)

He doesn't always use an accordion. But yeah, this is definitely not him.

The parody you are looking for is likely Star Trek Rhapsody allegedly by Weird Al Yankovik. However, as suggested by other users, it's probably not the complete truth.

Are you sure it's Weird Al Yankovic's? Doesn't sound like one of his parodies at all.

Weird Al would never have released something so bad. This would have ended his career. And there's no accordion. :)

He doesn't always use an accordion. But yeah, this is definitely not him.

I'll accept the downvotes as valid. I probably should have Googled the lyrics before asking it here, but I expected it to be more obscure than it actually was.

@Pelinore I'm familiar with Star Trekkin', so I didn't need to ask about that one.

@Pelinore I think OP wanted something a little more operatic, perhaps similar to this treatment of Wrath of Khan. (though it's better in the original Klingon)
