h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

"City of Night!!! City of Night!!! Whoooaaaaa!!!!!!!!" Oh, hi. I didn't see you come in. I was just practising a little R&R. This is the Karaoke Room. We can do any song that you know. There's no reason to be shy. We're all virtually friends here. Noone will know if you're off-key. So, sit down, have a drink, have several more drinks, and do some karaoke.

::Steps inside the bar, looks left, right, flutters her wings::

Looks a little empty in the Karaoke bar, eh?

::Steps up to the bar, takes a stool, & 'relaxes' into a nice, tall bottle of Vodka::

::Swallows a swig & realizes she forgot she was a lightweight... Shrugs, & follows up the first swig with a bottle or two.::

Heyya, efferybody! Less kari-oookay!

*If you can't carry a tune, you can still karaoke.*

-LeP

*Waves lighter in air*

I'm sure more people will come... I hope...

"Seventy-Six Trombones marching on the field..."

Oh, there's people here. Ummm...gotta go.

*Returns to serving drinks*

*Cheap Neil Young imitation*

Hey, Hey.
My, My.
Rock and Roll will never die.
It's better to burn out,
Than to rust...

* A man stands on the deserted stage in the wee small hours of the morning staring out at the empty chairs singing without accompaniment... *

"Up above the steeples, can your conscience enter to afterlife..."

"Let love be your guide..."

* The microphone stand plummets to the stage... *

The Late M.KÝ

BRAVO!!! What's you name, friend? Lemme serve you a drink. Heres you a mint juleb... If that's what you want. Tell me a bit about yourself. Sorry, I'm skipping around with subjects. Anyhow, welcome to the bar.

I would now like to perform the song that made this bar possible.

There is a house in New Orleans,
They call it the Rising Sun!
It's been a fate of many young boy,
In the House of the Rising Sun!

*Bows head and gently weeps*

Come on come on
And tell me
Why you're staring
Come on come on
It must be
What I'm wearing
Come on come on
And tell my
Why's it taking so long
For you to recognize and stop

hmmm, lovely.



Why's no one else volunteering to sing? I would if I could see the stage...............


*hic*

Sing, everyone! Sing-a-long!

The world is such a wonderful place
To wonder through.
With the sky so blue,
And the river so full of song,
Why should any heart be lonely?

*spoken*
Yup, it's a friendly world. How about we all treat each other like brothers and sisters? So, let's all look to the person beside us and say, 'Hello Brother!' or 'Hello Sister!'. And now we'll put our arms around our neighboring brothers and sisters and sway to the beat of the music.

The world is such a wonderful place
To wonder through.
With the sky so blue,
And the river so full of song,
Why should any heart be lonely?
Why should any heart be afraid?

We live in a beautiful world
yes we do yes we do

hmmm, maybe I should sing songs everyone knows.................

*All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need lo-o-ove
Love is all you need*

*Wipes tear from eye*

Yes, Wings, indeed we do...indeed...

ohhh, okay, I can see the stage now!

*You think you've lost your love
Well I saw her yesterday
It's you she's thinking of
And she told me what to say
She said she loves you
And you know that can't be bad
Yes she loves you
And you really should be glad (Whooo!)
She loves you yeh yeh yeh
She loves you yeh yeh yeh
She loves you yeh yeh yeh yeh!*

Love, Love, Love!!!
Love, Love, Love!!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!
Love, Love, Love!!!

It's a rather simple song.

Sharif he don't like it
ROCK THE CASBAH
ROCK THE CASBAH

Should we create a new room called the Casbah? I don't know what we could use it for...any suggestions?

Everyone is invited to the Tequila Sunrise Bar for a New Year's get-together. Party starts now and goes until Jan. 2. I guess that I have to put a song with that....

May auld acquaintance be forgot...

P.S. THERE WILL BE KARAOKE

Should auld aquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld aquaintance be forgot
For the sake of Auld Lang Syne?

For Auld Lang Syne my dear
For Auld Lang Syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For Auld Lang Syne


Or summat like that anyway!


Although it would probably more accurate to sing

Show me the way to go home
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I had a drink about an hour ago
And it's gone straight to my head

I shot the sherrif
But I didn't shoot the deputy
