Do you remember the guys wearing red shirts on Star Trek? You know, the guys with an average life span of about :30 seconds. Most were killed off before the opening credits. As you can no doubt imagine, after awhile, the red shirts start to get a case of the blues. Let's all get together tonight and sing the "Red Shirt Boogie Blues."

The tune makes a valid point. It's a little difficult to blend in and remain unnoticed by the evil monsters when you're wearing a bright red shirt. As a matter of fact, most of the 'Aliens of the Week' probably wouldn't have given the crew any notice had it not been for the bright red shirts. On the other hand, things could be worse. They could be wearing green shirts, then all the aliens would get the munchies. Take a look at the working conditions these guys have to deal with.
