TIL Star Trek’s (1966) theme song originally had lyrics written by Gene Roddenberry, who wrote them solely to usurp half of the royalties from composer Alexander Courage. The lyrics never aired.

'Star Trek': Words and Music

And they were comically bad:

Beyond the rim of the star-lightMy love Is wand'ring in star-flightI know he'll find in star-clustered reachesLove, strange love a star woman teaches.I know his journey ends neverHis star trek will go on forever.But tell him while he wanders his starry seaRemember, remember me.
