    Got this from memory alpha

     

    The Aquabats

    1.The Aquabats song "Meltdown!" from their 2005 album Charge!!, features the lyric, "I will go to work, just like Captain Kirk."

     

    Banditos

    The 1996 song "Banditos" by The Refreshments references TNG's Captain Jean-Luc Picard in a repeated verse:

    Give your ID card to the border guard

    Now your alias says you're Captain Jean-Luc Picard

    Of the United Federation of Planets

    Cause he won't speak English anyway.

    Beastie Boys

    Rap act The Beastie Boys' song Intergalactic features the lyric "...Like a pinch on the neck of Mr. Spock".

     

    The song Ch-Check It Out also contains several references to Star Trek. Not only does the song contain the lyrics "All you trekkies and tv addicts..." and "All you klingons in your Grandma's house...", but the video also contains a homage to The Original Series, with the three members of the group dressed as Kirk, Spock and McCoy (I have actually seen the video for this and they also do the fight with those sticks which Kirk and Spock used on each other)

     

    The chanuka Song

     

    The Chanukah Song" is a popular holiday song written and performed by actor and comedian Adam Sandler. The song is comprised of a list of celebrities who, like Sandler, are Jewish, with the intent of comforting those who felt isolated during Chanukah by proving that there were others in the world who were also Jewish. Among those celebrities referenced in the first song (two more would follow) are Star Trek: The Original Series stars William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy,

     

    "You don't need 'Deck the Halls' or 'Jingle Bell Rock'

    "When you can spin a dreidel with Captain Kirk and Mister Spock –

    Both Jewish!"

     

    Futuristic sex Robotz

    This band did a song called "The Positronic Pimp", extolling the successes of Data, which quotes "Ode to Spot" in response to the lyrics "What does the android have to say about his favorite (I'm trying to say a bad word but can't)?"

     

    JBO

    The German Comedy-Metal band "JBO" recorded two songs as a tribute to Star Trek on their Record "Laut!" in 1997: "Sound Trek" and "Star Treck".

     

    Translated, the chorus of the latter one means:

     

    Hurra! Hurra! I fly with Picard

    I am so Lucky to fly with Jean Luc (which rhymes perfectly in the original song)

    "Sound Trek" was a parody based on the German version of the series' intro:

     

    Der Weltall... unendliche Breiten. Dies sind die Abenteuer der Rockband JBO, die sich auf den Weg macht, um fremde Mädchen zu entdecken, unbekannte Lebensformen ... und was ihnen sonst noch so über den Weg läuft. JBO trinkt dabei ein ... oder zwei... Bier, nicht?

     

    OOKlA the Mok

    In 2005, the band Ookla the Mok recorded a song using the lyrics from Data's poem for their album, Dave Lennon.

     

    The Picard Song

    The Picard Song is dance techno theme originally created by DarkMateria [1], which heavily utilizes Patrick Stewart's lines from Star Trek: The Next Generation, with the most heavily repeated line being "Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise". The rest of the song consist of other Picard quotes: his speech about truth to Wesley Crusher in "The First Duty", his reference to a rambling professor in "Timescape", his recitation of a Shakespearean sonnet in "Ménage à Troi", the words "Darmok and Jilad at Tanagra" and "There are four lights!", and his conversation with Hugh in "I, Borg".

     

    Red Hot Chilli Peppers

    The Red Hot Chilli Peppers song "Californication" mentions that "Space maybe the final frontier but it's made in a Hollywood basement."

     

    Star Trek Rhapsody

     

    "Star Trek Rhapsody" is a parody of Queen's song "Bohemian Rhapsody". This song is often incorrectly associated with "Weird Al" Yankovic, but it is actually from a group known as Hillman Morning Show and was written and voiced by the show's co-host Kevin Barbare. Several music videos for the song, including one by the original performer, are widely available on the internet.

     

    Star Trekkin

    In 1987, a group called "The Firm" released "Star Trekkin'", a comedy single based on the Original Series. The song was #1 for two weeks in the UK singles charts. The video featured 'stop motion' animated versions of the cast of the Original Series.

     

    The song's lyrics are made up of parodies or deliberately funny readings of famous lines from the Original Series. For example, the song's chorus includes the line: "Boldy going forward, 'cause we can't find reverse."

     

    Voltaire

     

    Voltaire, the Dark Cabaret/Darkwave artist, released an EP called Banned on Vulcan. It was comprised entirely of parodies of various aspects of the Star Trek universe.

     

    Warp 11

     

    Warp 11 is a rock band that performs humorous songs inspired by Star Trek, with sometimes profane and sexual-related lyrics. They are comprised of four members: "Captain" Karl Miller (lead vocalist and bassist), "Chief Medical Officer" Jeff Hewitt (drummer), "Chief Engineer" Brian Moore (guitarist), and "Chief Science Officer" Kiki Stockhammer (vocalist). The male band members wear torn, short-sleeve versions of the TOS-style Starfleet uniforms.

     

    Warp 11 has released four albums since 2000:

     

    Suck My Spock (2000)

    Red Alert (2002)

    Boldly Go Down on Me (2005)

    He's Dead, Jim (2007)

     

    We didn't start the series

     

    This song, sung to the tune of "We Didn't Start The Fire" by Billy Joel, was used on local television affiliates during the original run of Star Trek: The Next Generation, to promote the series.

    Weird Al Yankovic

     

    "Weird Al", the Prince of Parody, has parodied on Star Trek several times in his songs. Some verified references include:

     

    "...Suddenly I'm bowling on the Starship Enterprise..."

    Song: "Stuck In A Closet With Vanna White"

    Album: Even Worse

    "...A local radio station had this contest to see who could correctly guess the number of molecules in Leonard Nimoy's butt."

    Song: "Albuquerque"

    Album: Running With Scissors

    "...I'm not even welcome at the Star Trek convention..."

    Song: "Genius In France"

    Album: Poodle Hat

    "Tell Me Why, I Bid On Shatner's Old Toupee..."

    Song: "eBay"

    Album: Poodle Hat

    "...Seen each Star Trek eighty times..."

    Song: "Gee, I'm A Nerd"

    Album: Tour song, never released

    "Your homemade Star Trek uniform / Really ain't impressin' me"

    Song: "You're Pitiful"

    Album: Straight Outta Lynwood

    "I'm fluent in JavaScript as well as Klingon." and "Only question I ever thought was hard was 'Do I like Kirk or do I like Picard?'"

    Song: "White & Nerdy"

    Album: Straight Outta Lynwood

    Additionally, in the music video for this song, the last shot is of Weird Al performing the Vulcan salute.

    This is a fun thing I saw in another forum i will start off.

     

    1. Picard goes to the replicater and asks for "Martini shaken but not stirred"

    2. Picard says to worf "Fire at will" and Riker says "Why is it always fire at me?"

    3. Data does a rap form of lifeforms and becomes the android Eminem.

    4. Beverly finally gets up the nerve to tell Picard that Wesley is actually his son.

    5. The Borg realise that Resistance is not futile and decide to mend there ways and become the future version of the Samaritans.

    Top funniest episode is Qpid How much does picard look like the old Robin Hoods with the fake moustache.

    And the bit when Data goes to say something and he has a chicken leg in his hand.

    and the funniest Quote

    "Sir I must protest I am not a merry man"

     

    Secondly would be The naked now when Data acts drunk
