Oh Yes, Oh Yes - !!!NEW!!!

Well, if you've got one, you've got to have the other.

New York, New York Oh Yes, Oh Yes not by Frank Sinatra
Start drinking today
It’s February
I got through the whole part of it
Oh yes, oh yes

Though it caused dismay        
I wanted to flee
Made it right through the whole of it
Oh yes, oh yes 

Wanted to wake up
With a head that didn’t pound
And feel I wouldn’t be sick
Sure of the ground

I didn’t give way
Though it caused no glee
Now I can be so free of it
Oh yes, oh yes

Now I have made it through
I'll have this
Drink on you
So here’s to Feb
Oh yes, oh yes

Oh yes, oh yes
Wanted to wake up
With a head that didn’t pound
And feel I was AOK
Sure I won’t fall
And won’t be sick
So AOK 

I didn’t give way
Though it caused no glee
Now I can be so free of it
Oh yes, oh yes

Now I have made it through
I'll have this
Drink on you
So here’s to Feb
Oh yes, oh yes

Oh yes!

Oh No, Oh No - !!!NEW!!!

Realised I missed an opportunity for a blog entry to mark Tom Baker's 92nd Birthday on 20th January so instead I'm doing a slightly (for which read tenuously) Whovian-linked creation based on a comment made during a Q&A panel at the recent Happy Who Year event. So thanks to Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy for the inspiration.

New York, New York Oh No, Oh No not by Frank Sinatra
Stop drinking today
For January
Don’t want to be a part of it
Oh no, oh no 

Though I often say
It’s not good for me
Don’t want to get rid of it
Oh no, oh no

I want to wake up
With a head that doesn't pound
And feel like I won’t be sick
Sure of the ground

I know it will pay
But oh can’t you see
I don’t want to let go of it
Oh no, oh no

(But) If I can make it through
I'll feel much
Better too
I said I would
Oh no, oh no

Oh no, Oh no
I want to wake up
With a head that doesn’t pound
And feel I'm so AOK
Sure I won’t fall
I won’t be sick
So AOK 

I know it will pay
But oh can’t you see
I don’t want to let go of it
Oh no, oh no

(But) If I can make it through
I'll feel much
Better too
I said I would
Oh no, oh no

Oh no

(Yes it's technically VERY late for a Dry January themed parody but at least it's ready for next year :D)

When You're Snoring - !!!NEW!!!

And now a mini parody of a Frank Sinatra classic for all those people who are sick of being kept awake at night.

When You're Smiling When You're Snoring not by Frank Sinatra 

Oh when you’re snoring, when you’re snoring
The whole world scowls at you
And when you’re snorting, when you’re snorting
The hatred comes glaring through
 

But when you waking we get a respite
So stop your sleeping baby and make it all alright
But don’t keep on snoring, keep on snoring
Or the whole world will hate you
