I spent the weekend 'composing' a new song for Rosie, here it comes.

Ahem,

1234

She ain't got no money
Her clothes are kinda funny
Her hair is kinda wild and free
Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

She talks kinda lazy
And people say she she's crazy
And her life's a mystery
Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away

I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away

I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

It keeps growing every place she's been
And nobody knows like me

If you've met her, you'll never forget her
And nobody knows like me

La la la- believe it when you've seen it
Nobody knows like me

that's so beautiful, you should write songs for some of the great singers. Daniel Bedingfield or Rick Wallor or whatever his name is
Posted by Victor Menendez, 10:28, 22nd April 2003:
 
Did you ever hear the theory that those two swapped heads.

(heads, not 'head'. lets clear that up before the lawsuits fly)

Posted by Victor Menendez, 10:31, 22nd April 2003:
 
Its true, lardy rik has a thin mans head on a big fat body, daniel bedingfield vice versa.
Posted by chandler, 10:34, 22nd April 2003:
 
hhaha
Posted by beargod, 10:50, 22nd April 2003:
 
although Rik does have some fatness in his head
Posted by arsepuppy, 10:58, 22nd April 2003:
 
Rik's head looks like an albino gearstick skirt.

Rosie, told me,
Get out of here, head for the sea,
The sun is hot and the air is clean
The best things in the world are free
And Mister Murphy
Likes his Jackanory
Stella Artois times three
Jimi Hendrix and Thin Lizzy

Rosie, Rosie, Rosie

Met a mate in the afternoon
Stella shore line pub crawl
Looking for some cold beer
Missed the stone punch drunk Judy
Tony, brandy, M.G., Andy
Vodka, scotch and loads of beer
It's so great we want to stay here


Rosie, Rosie, Rosie








Goddamn but my songwriting juices are flowing today.

I knew it was a red dwarf quote. I just couldnt see where it fitted in.
Posted by chandler, 14:34, 22nd April 2003:
 
cos rosie said that Jim had a little willy and i was suggesting that Vicky didnt have one at all, so rosie would be better off with jim
Posted by chandler, 14:36, 22nd April 2003:

Posted by Victor Menendez, 14:46, 22nd April 2003:

earthworm: bizarrely when we invented our time travelling £$$^^&^%&*&&))( the thread we discussed it in actually disappeared into a server black hole. so now only the select few who saw it are qualified to use it. :D

Also, note to self: em's monkey's might have a nose bleed
Posted by Redmaiden, 20:39, 22nd April 2003:

Posted by jeff, 23:36, 22nd April 2003:
 
currently i am 'nursing my monkey' and moping ... mostly i am a student in my very last month of 'education' (ha, one tutorial a week for 10 minutes, buncha crap) and panicking.. hence i spend most of my time here procrastinating. right now i need a wee but my housemate is in the bath with her boyfriend having sex so i have to hold it in for the next hour or five... grrr...
Posted by Miki, 23:40, 22nd April 2003:

Posted by chandler, 08:12, 23rd April 2003:
 
jess did you ICQ me? cos i've been having really bad connection probs recently.

and that is a BIG cut. wow. how you are ok.
Posted by cal, 08:37, 23rd April 2003:
 
christ - that looks nasty.

Posted by chandler, 08:42, 23rd April 2003:
 
heehee. care to post the other one?
Posted by jeff, 09:46, 23rd April 2003:
 
if you're all willing to pay i'll set up my own p0rn0 site - it'll help pay off my uni debts... and yes, it REALLY hurts... kinda stings.
anyway i'm off for the day to dress up my housemate in knee high slut boots, mini skirt, tight top, false eyelashes, fake nails and buckets of makeup so i can film her being all badass for my final project... if only i was a boy so i could actually enjoy the whole experience..
Posted by earthworm, 09:48, 23rd April 2003:
 
Who's to say, you couldn't still enjoy it...
Posted by chandler, 09:51, 23rd April 2003:
 
wow! sounds like a good project
Posted by chandler, 09:52, 23rd April 2003:
 
care to explain it in depth?

Posted by jeff, 10:05, 23rd April 2003:
 
you can all see the video when its finished.. i'll no doubt upload it to my portfolio, then you can all enjoy what i cant. earthworm, sadly i'm not gay or bisexual.. and i'll be filming with help from my gay male friend so it will be completely wasted on both of us...
Posted by chandler, 10:19, 23rd April 2003:
 
what a tragic waste
Posted by earthworm, 10:29, 23rd April 2003:
 
yup... where is your portfolio?
Posted by chandler, 10:39, 23rd April 2003:
 
i occasionally check Jess's site for work but whenever i go there is always a sign up saying she has gone to buy socks or that the stuff will be back up soon.
Posted by cal, 11:02, 23rd April 2003:
 
some amazing url guessing truned up this:

Posted by chandler, 11:06, 23rd April 2003:
 
there is some nice stuff their jess. are the animations viewable?

you do a lot more work than i do! my portfolio is sadly lacking!
:)

nice
Posted by jeff, 11:39, 23rd April 2003:
 
lol, why thank you chay... sadly until i stop scrounging free hosting from my brother there'll be nothing big up there. it all needs updating baaadly.. and i will have a website as soon as this degree malarky is over.. its all designed, my brother promised to build it for me (i cant be bothered to learn php n stuff) as soon as we get some free time... then you can all read about how boring my life is there instead of here!
Hehe, i have thousands of pounds worth of camera and lighting equipment in my living room which i've turned into a bluescreen studio, yay!
Posted by jeff, 11:41, 23rd April 2003:
 
chay, what you talking about, you have LOOOAADS of stuff in your portfolio.. and besides, the work you do is more labour intensive than mine.. scary 3d stuff..
Posted by chandler, 11:46, 23rd April 2003:
 
wow you have your own blue screeen studio! you rule jess!!!
i need far more in my portfolio
and im getting bored of 3D a bit *sharp intake of breath!*
:)
I really need to get my final project planned, then i'll be a lot happier.

Dammit! Why do I always miss out when you females dress all slutty???

It sucks being me, it really does.
Posted by jeff, 11:58, 23rd April 2003:
 
i'll send you pictures!! you're right tho... you even missed my halloween escapade ;) i'm sure it sucks more being someone else... like.. um.. chris (my housemate) ... imagine having to pretend to like macs even when they crash every two seconds, and then there's the beard, man it must suck having a beard like that.. you wanna help me drug him and shave it off next time you're up?
Posted by chandler, 12:05, 23rd April 2003:
 
photos jess, post photos of maria. :)

(just to give Reddy some costume ideas, you understand)
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:06, 23rd April 2003:
 
Yeah ok. I've been bugging him to shave it off for ages, doing the whole "But you used to be so handsome" and "You'll never pull looking like that" shtick. He ain't having it though. We need to think of something drastic to get him off the whole "maths teacher" look.
Posted by jeff, 12:12, 23rd April 2003:
 
especially with his ill fitting suit... bless him. i think drugging him, shaving him and forcing him to go to kudos (or whatever its called now) every night until he pulls, is the only way...
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:16, 23rd April 2003:
 
..and bathing him in perfume...

(i hope he isn't reading this, bless 'im!)
Posted by jeff, 12:18, 23rd April 2003:

right. now i must definately stop procrastinating.. i'm off to film and print stuff and get my damn degree dammit... grrr
Posted by jeff, 12:19, 23rd April 2003:
 
chris, if you're reading this.. erm.. sorry? haha...
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:21, 23rd April 2003:
 
Isn't it called Creation now?

My g/f was dragged there by her brother last week. She hated it. But apparently his friends (a group of drunken monkey-obsessed 18-year-olds) all tried all night to pull her with the cheesiest lines. Bless.
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:22, 23rd April 2003:
 
I should apologise to Chris as well.... Errr sorry, mate....

Can you help me with my long division??
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:23, 23rd April 2003:
 
But he does look ever-so-biblical on the right, though...
Posted by Victor Menendez, 12:26, 23rd April 2003:
 
right enough, its time for the premiere of MY NEW ROSIE SONG!

There is a Rosie in Spanish Harlem
A red Rosie up in Spanish Harlem
It is a special one, It's never seen the sun
It Only comes out when the moon on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
Its growing in thestreet, right up throughthe concrete
But soft and sweet and dreamin'
There is a Rosie in Spanish Harlem
A red Rosie up in Spanish Harlem
With eyes as black as coal that look down in my soul
And starts a fire there and then i lose control
I have to beg your pardon
I'm going to pick that Rosie and watch her as she grows in my garden
I'm going to pick that Rosie and watch her as she grows in my garden
(There is a Rosie in Spanish Harlem)
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(There is a Rosie in Spanish Harlem)
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(There is a Rosie in Spanish Harlem)



Beautiful. i have a weakness for songs with la-la-la in them.
