Big Kai
by Rob Morris

(Guitar intro)

Well, you ascended to the office of the late Opaka
On the back and the corpse of Bareil

You had a way of drawing support
You used cunning and guile

But you decided to oppose the Emissary
and drive Sisko out with Cardies in the know

Tell me, is there any level at all you considered too low?;

You meant to be a Big Kai, Adami
Bring your enemies to rout

You meant to be a Big Kai, Winn-All
Put democracy in doubt

You meant to move unopposed, feckless
While still gathering your clout

You meant to have the Prophets' favor
But they never liked your flavor;

Well, we were not surprised when you politicized
And tried to spin on agricultural gains

The petty way you stopped the Prophets final fight
Surely helped to spread the Pagh stain

And I remember well how all you did was pout
After you acknowledged Captain Sisko

I'll give you one thing, Eminence
You surely livened our little show!

You meant to be a Big Kai, Adami
Bring your enemies to rout

You meant to be a Big Kai, Winn-All
Put democracy in doubt

You meant to move unopposed, feckless
While still gathering your clout

You meant to have the Prophets' favor
But they never liked your flavor;

Well, its no sign that you're weak
When of doubts you speak

If you know not to wallow in despair
But you bedded Dukat, Killed Sobor
And took the down set of stairs;

You meant to be a Big Kai, Adami
Thought that you were hearing raves

You meant to be a Big Kai, No-Winn
Now walk in the Fire Caves

You meant to move feckless, reckless
But now your soul's in doubt

You meant to have the Prophets' blessing
Now its our faith's wounds need dressing...

Big Kai.....Big Kai...(Guitar finish)
