Synergy(Sung to the tune of “Puff the Magic Dragon”)
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar lived happily
So many toys and simple joys that he loved thoroughly
His best friend Iksar Starbuck, loved that rascal Unk
They played Triad though very bad, and that that friendly junk
Together they would sortie on missions out in space
Bucky always keeping up with Unkky’s rapid pace
Check the forward scanners, DRADIS would clear
When Unkky and Starbuck came, Cylons would disappear
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar lived so simple-ly
On his ship, Galactica, all became a spree
Card games always after, fumereallas too
The battlestar was all in all, quitay a happy crew
No friendship lasts forever, this you know is true
There comes a time when things divide, unity into two
The bleak command was given, only Unk alone
Was to fly a secret mission into the Cylon home
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar flying bravefully
Secret to him, his viper caught with inevi’bility
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar subject to great pain
The Cylons tore out all his hopes as they destroyed his brain
Gone the boyhood wonder, erased the every joy
The Cylons tore flesh as well as mind as if he were a toy
At the end, rebuilt him, an artificial being
Blankness of mind they’re soon decide to make do anything
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, afterficial being
Welcomed aboard and pilots roared at his new returning
Something bothered Starbuck about his pal Unkky
Awkward now, uncertain if he was the same buddy

Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, spoke differently
As if his job was ovining and not that of piloting
Adama and Starbuck, shared many concerns
And what to do about it when at last Unkky learns?
Security must be stringent, battlestars and crews
Unk to be restrained and put to test to see who was really whoThen that night it happened
Unkky had confessed
He was no more than Cylon spy
A viper at their breast
Adama’s face had whitened, shocked and full of grief
If not for Doc’s oath not to harm, Unk would have been deceased
Starbuck also present, blaster leveled straight at Unk
His finger tight, his hand did shake, the weapon went ker-plunk
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar in isolation threeHis mind a blank, no longer thank, now completely free
In senseless isolation, no sound, naught to see
Did Unkky experience what is called epiphany
The mirror glass reflected what was soon to be
Re-awakened whole and enlightened soul of our lost Unkky
How triumphantly awakened, how admired and cheered
Unkky was sensational, overcoming Cylon fear
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, awakened and set free
The darling of the Iksar fleet, ev’ry ensign and marine
Unk had spoke of dragons, where they were right now
Many tales and fond regails of their tremendous pow’r
Make dragons protect us, people did so plea
Our saviors all, we must avow their generosity
Cylons came regardless, the people were enraged
Mob scene grew, and it was through for Unkky and his mate
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, sad beyond all grief
Cried out in pain, his friend’s remains brought on catato-ni-ee

Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, he lays unconsciously
As Doc puts drills into his head for a lobotomy
Miracle re-awakened, Unkky returned anew
No longer saint or special bloke, just ordinary crew
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, now pariah to all
Shipped back through space to home base, that of planetfall
Unkky’s neighbor Iggy, Iksar just like he,Soon filled the void in Unkky’s heart that’d Starbuck prev’ously
His new friend Igleskala loved that rascal Unk
They’d drink and game and talk again and all that pal-sy junk
Then Iggy had ideas, learning dragons well
Why not buy an art of quality that just might ring their bell?
Unkky thought it splendid, the dragon Progon too
Some table stakes was all it takes to afford a jewel
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, Triad player pro
Swept in the gold, cubits manifold rich as he would go
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, art commissioner
Bought a masterpiece of reptile sheek without a single peer
Then his buddy Iggy convinced Unk his best
To try a game of growing fame called Forever Quest
Now Unkky was not eager to leave the real again
Given what happened to him thrice before of being alien
He met an AI in there, Unk got on so well
The AI was so engaging, that in love Unkky fell
After talk of morals, and of laws and code
Did Connie, AI beloved to Unk, did plot its greatest woe
Conn the AI dragon did toil on and on
And launched countermeasure ships to obliterate Cylon
There was much rejoicing, the war had fin’ly past
Great revelry and much ado was made for victory
Then the scanners faltered, there appeared a mighty face
Unkky know that draconic look, every line in its place

Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, in a battle mood,Confronts AI with impassioned cry and an angry feudConnie, AI dragon, took it logically
Iksars safe from e’en themselves for all eternity
Deny Iksars freedom Unkky cried
And you’ll extinct us all!
No longer with growth or progress
We’ll cease to be at all
Connie overheated, death by non-sequitur
The circuits slag, the Iksars free to resume their social blur
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, sleeping peacefully
Awakened by the pain- and problem-wrought Progon dragon dream
Cylons gone forever, caused Progon woe
State of affairs had not gone where they were meant to go
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, now quite worriedly
Pondered paths to choose between, and found he wanted three
Asteroid collision, he came to see
Was the best alternative amongst all the three
Progon mighty dragon, deflects velocity
And careens toward the fiery death of planet Makha 3
The Iksars all went crazy, their little world was doomed
Nobody’d survive planetside when impact mushroomed
Rag-tag fleets did scurry, several more were lost
Refugees to every corn’ of the `verse were tossed
Then came inquisition, Unk’s days were spent
They learned who and what he was and why was it he’s sent
Tribune unanimously, so say we all
Condemned Unk to death in space while dying in free fall
Progon moved heaven n’ earth
Such as dragons doSaved Unk his death in outer space
A friendly rendezvous

Unk, immortal dragon
Swam the cosmic sea
And spoke at length with borrowed strengthWith Progon endlessly
In a dream it happened, Unk had found Iggy
But rejoice and boistrous voice there was not to be
Unk please forgive me, Iggy Iksar prayed
They forced me to say what I wanted not and it led to your grave
Unk-tay-ghi-la Iksar, himself a dream
Cried for his friend and for himself and for what just couldn’t be
A dragon lives forever, but not so the Iksars
Pleasant chat and all of that shall vanish with the stars
Progon and their Unkky, grieving endlessly
Held each other oh so tight while gazing depthlessly
In that moment started, begin and beguine,
More than each the either was and much more endlessly
And late that night in heaven,
Look ye up quite far,Contstillation Draconis gained new light among its stars!
Unk and Progon dragons
As you can plainly see
Shine thought the UniverseWith a brilliant energy
Unk and Progon dragons
Forever joined as one
Became a loving, magic force
More brilliant than all the suns
