The Cylons are on the Fleet’s heels. Tigh gets drunk, and admits to killing his wife. Roslin gets stoned, and admits that the cancer is back. And some of the crew — Tigh and Anders included — are hearing strange music. It’s all a big build-up for next week’s season finale. But the star of this week’s show was Apollo, who asked me if he could take a moment to sing a little song for his father.
The following is sung to the tune of “I’m Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman” from the Crossroads soundtrack …
I used to think I had the answers to everything
But now I know
That life doesn’t always go my way
Feels like I’m caught in the middle
That’s when I realize …
I’m not a CAG, not yet a lawyer
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I’m in between
I’m not a CAG
There is no need to protect me
It’s time that I
Learn to face up to this on my own
I’ve seen so much more than you know now
So don’t tell me to shut my eyes
I’m not a CAG, not yet a lawyer
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I’m in between
I’m not a CAG
But if you look at me closely
You will see it in my eyes
This CAG will always find his way
(I’m not a CAG) I’m not a CAG, don’t tell me what to believe
(Not yet a lawyer) I’m just trying to find the lawyer in me, yeah
(All I need is time) Oh, all I need is time
(A moment that is mine) That’s mine
While I’m in between
I’m not a CAG, not yet a lawyer, no no
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I’m in between
I’m not a CAG, ooh
Not yet a lawyer
