A song for every occaision
Anyone who has met me in the chatroom will know I spend my life singing. I love singing I believe there is a song for every occasion and when I cant think of one I make one up…….
This is the one I put to the tune of I will survive – I wrote it when I was made redundant from work about one of my sacrey work experiences………..
At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I would never escape Hope Street
I was trapped inside
But then I guessed the alarm code
but I kept getting it wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
So I called Elaine
And she called Kim
And they called Garry to rescue me
but Garry wasn’t in
and just when it looked like I never would escape
Along come Cleaner Billy a hero with a mop and not a cape
Billy didn’t have a cape Billy had a key
He opened up the big green door
and then he rescued me
I was free I walked out the door
it was 10 oclock at night
I couldn’t take it any more
But after all those late nights its now time to say goodbye
And I won’t crumble
I wont break down and cry
Oh no, not I
I will survive
oh as long as I can get a job
I know I’ll stay alive
So goodbye to Hope Street To my colleagues
and TLs
I am leaving you so I bid you all farewell
and goodbye!
Oh goodbye
Hi Carol nice song did u write it? I also sing i started off in a dublin bar many many years ago it was the same bar the famous irish droup started in The Dubliners I sang a coupla irish tunes from memory but these days i sing in Kareoke
I just changed the words to ‘I will survive’ I often take famous songs and jiggle with the lyrics the only thing that’s consistent is that all of my lyrics are a bit silly 🙂 I make up songs for birthdays and all sorts of occasions like people passing driving tests, people with birthdays leaving work having babies etc!
I only ever sing in public when I’m with the choir coz then I stand at the back and just mime 😉
Carol two weeks ago i wrote a song for a former member in here she joins me in paltalk now and she asked me if i ever thought of writing one well like u i took an old tune from an early Pat Boone one and added my own lyrics
LOL so I’m not the only thief around here 🙂
