If - !!!NEW!!!

Onto what would have been June's posts and continuing with the Whovian theme.
Upon discovering that there was effectively enough lines for each of the 15 Doctors to get their own 2 lines, I did my best to fit that pattern and denoted which tenure it referred to in brackets.

If not by Rudyard Kipling
(Hartnell) If you can keep your head when all about you
Are Daleks surrounding you and Susan;
(Troughton) If you can find when the Cybermen trap you,
You still find a way to ensure you’ve won:
(Pertwee) If you can meet and old friend and a rival,
And stop them from destroying everything,
(Baker) Or defeat the unwanted survival,
Of the leader of an alien ring

(Davison) If you can meet a dark cosmic entity;
And not let them interfere with your aim,
(Baker) If you can face the Valeyard and the Rani
And beat those two troublemakers just the same:
(McCoy) If you can bear to face off against Fenric
And still escape with your companion,
(McGann) Or defeat an old friend and a lunatic
Who tries to bring about oblivion;

(Eccleston) If you can give up on your new appearance
To help save the life of the one you love,
(Tennant) Lose them, and start again with perseverance
⁠And never speak (of) what you’re deprived of:
(Smith) If you can battle Angels, Silence and more
Not forgetting the Great Intelligence,
(Capaldi) If you can agree that you’ll guard a vault door
⁠Knowing the price (of) any negligence

(Whitaker) If you can learn the truth behind your origins,
And still defeat whatever threat comes through,
(Tennant) If not old foes who force out new beginnings,
Can stop you from what you then need to do:
(Gatwa) If you can keep Omega from this planet
After making sure Sutekh’s had his run,
You’ll save the Earth and everyone that's on it,
⁠As—which is more—you're a Timelord, my son!

Jelly Baby - !!!NEW!!!

Realised I'd fallen massively behind with my blog so time to play catch-up.
Firstly, with the 2 songs I would have posted in May. Starting with...

Be My Baby Jelly Baby not by The Ronettes
I know we’ve just met but I need you to know
Though I have changed my face still everywhere I go
I want you to stay with me
To come and travel with me
But first things first and I really want to know

If you would like
(Jelly, jelly baby) Wanna jelly baby
(You want a jelly baby) Oh won’t you just tell me
(Jelly, jelly baby) Jelly baby yes?
Or-or-or-no

Where we go in the TARDIS, just you and me
You’ll be astounded by all the sights you see
And whoever that we meet
I’ll offer them a new treat
It is my favourite sweet and what’s more it’s free

So would you like
(Jelly, jelly baby) Wanna jelly baby
(You want a jelly baby) Oh won’t you just tell me
(Jelly, jelly baby) Jelly baby yes?
Or-or-or-no

So would you like
(Jelly, jelly baby) Wanna jelly baby
(You want a jelly baby) Oh won’t you just tell me
(Jelly, jelly baby) Jelly baby yes?
Or-or-or-no
 

(Jelly, jelly baby) Wanna jelly baby
(You want a jelly baby) Oh won’t you just tell me
(Jelly, jelly baby) Jelly baby yes?
Or-or-or-no

(Jelly, jelly baby) Wanna jelly baby
(You want a jelly baby) Oh won’t you just tell me
(Jelly, jelly baby) Jelly baby yes?
Or-or-or-no

I'm A Timelord - !!!NEW!!!

So I've been very busy meeting a certain 4th Doctor(!) so naturally another Whovian themed parody was required.

I'm Like A Bird I'm A Timelord not by Nelly Furtado
I’ve saved the earth so many times
And yet I never stayed
If I am asked I will decline
My welcome won’t be outstayed 

But I will always help
And I will always care

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But all that you need to know is

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But all that you need to know is

I’ll do my best to fight your fears (ah)
Defeat those who bring you tears, tears
But my time with you is soon gone
‘Cause my life continues/journey carries on

But I will always help
And I will always care

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But what it is all that you need to know is

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But all that you need to know is

It's not that I don’t want to stick ‘round, it's just that every time I’ve found
A human I fall in love with (oh, oh)
Each and every single time, I know I will have to eventually try
To say goodbye, yeah, yeah

But I will always help
And I will always care

And if you’re scared
Know we will get through
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But what it is all that you need to know is

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But what it is all that you need to know is

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But what it is all that you need to know is

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But what it is all that you need to know is

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But what it is all that you need to know is

I’m a Timelord, I upped and ran away
I still know where my home is (home is)
And I know what alone is
But what it is all that you need to know is

I’m a Timelord

Gallifrey - !!!NEW!!!

I'm at a Comic Con event today with my fellow Whovians so naturally today's post has to have a matching theme.

Yesterday Gallifrey not by Paul McCartney
Gallifrey – that was where I once began my day.             
But it was soon clear I couldn’t stay.
Still it’s my home, is Gallifrey.

Yet you see their methods didn’t agree with me.
Couldn’t leave events to destiny.
So Gallifrey was not for me.

So I chose to go
Though the thought it caused dismay.
It’s now been so long.
And I miss my Gallifrey.

Gallifrey – was somewhere from which I wouldn’t stray.
Now it’s somewhere that’s so far away.
Yet I remember Gallifrey

Yes I chose to go
Though the thought it caused dismay.
It’s now been so long.
And I miss my Gallifrey.

Gallifrey – was somewhere from which I wouldn’t stray.
Now it’s somewhere that’s so far away.
Yet I remember Gallifrey

He Is The Doctor - !!!NEW!!!

And for this special occasion here's another Whovian themed parody (as might perhaps be sung by one of his companions).

Black Heart Doctor not by Stooshe I don't like it when you leave me oh no
'Cause ever since you came
And opened my eyes with all this trav'lling
It is not just the same

And now, and now, wherever you go or whenever
I just want to make sure that we will go together
You are the doctor

Daddy I've fallen for a Timelord
He's like no one I've ever met
You might think he's mad
I love him so bad
And I know that it's not just a fad
Daddy I've fallen for a Timelord
He is the doctor

Those walls that are around his TARDIS
They are not what them seem
'Cause inside there's a whole new dimension
It's almost like a dream

I know, I know, I don't care what we face whatsoever
They can't beat you no matter how hard they no no never
You are the doctor

Daddy I've fallen for a Timelord
He's like no one I've ever met
You might think he's mad
I love him so bad
And I know that it's not just a fad
Daddy I've fallen for a Timelord
He is the doctor

Daddy I've fallen for a Timelord
He's like no one I've ever met
You might think he's mad
I love him so bad
And I know that it's not just a fad
Daddy I've fallen for a Timelord
He is the doctor

He is the doctor
And he is the only doctor I want
I love him so bad
Oh, yes I do
He is the doctor

Jelly Baby - !!!NEW!!!

Today is Tom Baker's 91st birthday(!) and being an avid Whovian what else was I going to do a parody song about?

Hallelujah Jelly Baby not by Leonard Cohen I know that you have heard it before
It was spoken by a great timelord
The mem'ry of it surely isn't hazy
You know I mean the fourth doctor
With his long scarf and crazy hair
Who says now would you like a jelly baby

Jelly baby, jelly baby
Jelly baby, jelly baby

The longest of the incarnations
Seven years til regen'ration
He travelled through all of time and space daily
With K9 and his companions
He encountered many aliens
And asked would you like a jelly baby

Jelly baby, jelly baby
Jelly baby, jelly baby

He travelled far, he travelled wide
He never knew what he might find
But he and the TARDIS were never lazy
He battled foes, he battled fears
And through the smiles and through the tears
He said would you like a jelly baby

Jelly baby, jelly baby
Jelly baby, jelly baby

He did his best through all of time
To make sure that the earth was fine
And keep it safe from anything that may be
A danger to all us humans
Until the day his time had come
He said would you like a jelly baby

Jelly baby, jelly baby
Jelly baby, jelly baby

Jelly baby, jelly baby
Jelly baby, jelly baby

Jelly baby, jelly baby
Jelly baby, jelly baby

Jelly baby, jelly baby
Jelly baby, jelly baby

Gallifrey - !!!NEW!!!

And, to continue the Whovian theme for this month, a parody of an ABBA classic:

Waterloo Gallifrey not by ABBA
You know
On Gallifrey is where the Doctor started
Oh, yeah
Though it wasn’t long before he and the Timelords parted 

But the Doctor knows where he’s from
And he will ensure it goes on

Gallifrey
Never defeated – no, not at all
Gallifrey
We all know now that it’s falls no more 

Gallifrey
Though so far from it the Doctor roams
Gallifrey
He still knows where it is he calls home
Oh-oh-oh-oh-Gallifrey
He’ll never forget his Gallifrey

My, my
They tried to exile him, but it didn’t last
Oh, yeah
And whenever they need him they choose to forget the past

And how could he ever refuse
If he doesn’t win they all lose

Gallifrey
Never defeated – no, not at all
Gallifrey
We all know now that it’s falls no more 

Gallifrey
Though so far from it the Doctor roams
Gallifrey
He still knows where it is he calls home
Oh-oh-oh-oh-Gallifrey
He’ll never forget his Gallifrey
 

And how could he ever refuse
If he doesn’t win they all lose

Gallifrey
Though so far from it the Doctor roams
Gallifrey
He still knows where it is he calls home
Oh-oh-oh-oh-Gallifrey
He’ll never forget his Gallifrey
Ooh-ooh, Gallifrey
They know the Doctor’ll save the day

Oh-oh-oh-oh-Gallifrey
He’ll never forget his Gallifrey
Ooh-ooh, Gallifrey

Supercalifragilisticexpialitimelord 2 - !!!NEW!!!

I was discussing my blog with a friend and came across a previous parody song which used the tune but not the word itself. This gave me an idea for a revision so here we are:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocioustimelord still not from Mary Poppins
It's supercalifragilisticexpiali-timelord
Yes I might have just made up a brand spanking new word
But yet still you know exactly what it was that you heard
Supercalifragilisticexpiali-timelord
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I 

So why have I decided to make this new word today
It’s ‘cause I think there is a chance Mary’s from Gallifrey
If you think about it you’ll see they have a lot in common
Which is the very reason that this whole song was begun

Oh, supercalifragilisticexpiali-timelord
Yes I might have just made up a brand spanking new word
But yet still you know exactly what it was that you heard
Supercalifragilisticexpiali-timelord
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I

They both travel around the world in their own unique ways
To improve the lives of others is how they spend their days
They don’t agree with convention though you might see them at one
And let’s not forget the carpet bag that defies dimensions 

Supercalifragilisticexpiali-timelord
Yes I might have just made up a brand spanking new word
But yet still you know exactly what it was that you heard
Supercalifragilisticexpiali-timelord
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I
Um-dittle-ittl-um-dittle-I

You know you can say it backwards which is
Timelordaliexpisticfragicalirupus
But that's going a bit too far, don't you think?
Indubitably
 

So next time you see that big blue box or her umbrella (Hello)
Just remember this song and you’ll see just how similar
There are probably other ways that these two do match up

For example
Yes?
What Missy’s wearing ain’t half close to Mary’s first get up
Oh, and it suits her loverly, too
Oh
