So everybody's favourite has-been, love-lost, swivel-chair climber has been pretty grumpy lately - bagging people out even more often than he usually does, and calling old fossils (older than him) who can actually climb (better than him) out for early retirement... Well, here is a tribute to the great man, hopefully it will cheer him up!
----
What About Me?
Well there's a bitter Simey waiting at the counter of his little shop
He's been "building" it for years, building every day
Now he gets showed up by old-timers on the rock
He can't get off the ground, he's just a 'has-bean' now
So he sits at his desk and he says
[CHORUS:]
What about me, it isn't fair
I've done some stuff and I've still got hair
Can't you see, I could climb a bit
Now I just talk more than I live
Well there's a pretty girl walking through the door of that little shop
Here's the man of her dreams, she's read all the magazines
But her dreams died when she finally saw his c---
So she leaves un-wowed, Simey cries out loud
He drives out to the Pines and he screams
[CHORUS:]
What about me, it isn't fair
I'm good with muff and i'm good down there
Can't you see, I could love a bit
Now I just talk more than I live
So everyone appreciate the wrinkly people
They may be old but they're the ones
That make us young people young
So listen, as they whimper... "What about me?"
And now Simey's standing in the Pines and all the girls've gone home
Nothing has changed, he hasn't got laid
And now he just feels cold and alone
Though he never picks up, he still tries a lot
Now he just wishes for more than he's got
[CHORUS:]
What about me, it isn't fair
I've done some stuff and i've still got hair
Can't you see, I could climb bit
But now I just talk more than I live
What about me, it isn't fair
I've done some stuff and i've still got hair
Can't you see, I could climb bit
But now I just talk more than I live...
What about me?
What about si-mey?

Fantastic.
I think it's just a case of early onset male menopause.

Deano! You've outdone yourself. When do you start live performances?

Is that meant to be funny Deano? I look forward to your rendition at the next Pines singalong. I'll bring the hammers this time.

More importantly, can we slip it into Arapiles the Musical? I could do a little cameo.

I think we have the first person to be banned from the Natmuk Cafe!

Arapiles the Musical keeps getting better. First 'Redpoint Blues,' then 'The Meat Song,' now this. If its ever finished, its going to be a corker.

We'll have to start thinking about the casting.
Perhaps Anthony La Paglia for Eduardo,
Richard Griffiths for Glenn Robbins
Gwyneth Paltrow for Kim
Sylvester Stallone for Wolfgang
Tom Cruise for HB
I'm open to other suggestions.

I disagree with your casing suggestions. I would be much better portrayed by Roger More.
Ray Winston for The Fat Dude
Harvey Keitel for Hero
Babe the Pig for Swine of the Times

I'd like to be played by Dennnis Hopper, but Harvey Keital would do at a pinch.

Who would Britney Spears play?

Who'd play the dragon ?

"Who would Britney Spears play?
Can she act?

I've just realised who Britney Spears would play but that scene, and character, has been cut for reasons of time despite it's pivotal role in certain events.

Arapiles, the Musical. OK, Who's writing the script!
"Springtime for Simey and Natimuk,
Winter for Horsham and Nhill"
A few other classics
1. "Wake me up before you Redpoint"
2. "I'm too Sexy for the Pines (that's why I'm in the Gums with all of my chums)"
3. "Send it baby one more time" - Britney, you made it!
4. "Rap and clean it baby,
please don't lead it,
it ain't ever goin' a be,
protectable"
5. "Mamma Mia,
I've fallen off again,
I hope,
my belayer's watching"
featuring Hugh Grant as Simon Mentz - that should get the posh totty galloping in.
All Bollywood movies have 6 songs/dance routines and 6 fight sequences. We've got the songs, who's into choreography?
Game on!

1 with mallets.

I could remember the dance Steve 'Schneiderburner' Serious did with Muir, complete with the broken nose.
And maybe one of the fairies could remember the choree for when he was wailing on Nyrie's car with me and hoss in it. Sort of a friday 13th scene.
And then there's always the Graeme Hill Dance, looking like an epileptic bear trying to get out of a singlet.
We'll need pyrotechnics. Are you allowed to explode spray cans on stage?

Bring on Arapiles- The Musical
or maybe call it the muscle-ical
Ness wants to choreograph "If you liked it then you should have put a ring in it"
