Note: This is a continuation from the previous posts. Would you watch a play willingly from half-way through? No, right? So read the Part 1 & 2 first, before reading this post.
Scene:
Its tough being a modern day cricketer, with all the pressures of travel and staying away from the family. Its not for the faint hearted. Unfortunately, an english player finds himself depressed and alone in the night. Poor chap. He is singing to the tune of " If it wasn't for the nights":
I got appointments, work I have to do
Keeping me so busy all the day through
They're the things that keep me from thinking of you
Ahhh baby, I miss you so, I know I'm never gonna make it
Oh, I'm so restless, I don't care what I say
And I lose my temper, ten times a day
Still it's even worse when the night's on its way
It's bad, oh, so bad
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
No one to turn to, you know how it is
I was not prepared for something like this
Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss
Ahhh baby, I feel so bad, I know I'm never gonna make it
I got my business to help me through the day
People I must write to, bills I must pay
But everything's so different when night's on its way
It's bad, oh, so bad...
Scene:
Ricky Ponting is sad after loosing the quater finals match to India. Looking at the Indian team, desolate and inconsolable, he starts singing to the tune of "Waterloo"
My, my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself
Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo
My, my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yeah, and now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose
Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo
Scene:
Greame Smith is upset that South Africa has lost its quarter-finals clash against Newzealand, unexpectedly after such strong performances in the league stage of the tournament. The South African media is crying for his blood. Inconsolabale, he looks to his team mates and starts singing to the tune of "Knowing me, Knowing You":
No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after
Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye
Knowing me, knowing you,
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you
We just have to face it, this time we're through
Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go
Knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do
Scene:
The broadcaster of the event ended up with a bonanza in the form of the India - Pakistan semi finals. For this match, they had reportedly increased the advertisement rates from 300 K to 1800 K for a 10 second slot. The executives had a meeting with their clients who wanted to book slots and they were singing to the tune of "I do, I do, I do" :
Love me or leave me,
make your choice but believe me
I love you
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
I can't conceal it, don't you see,
can't you feel it?
Don't you too?
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Oh, I've been dreaming through my lonely past
Now I just made it, I found you at last
Oh, no hard feelings between you and me
If we can't make it, but just wait and see
So come on, now let's try it,
I love you, can't deny it
'Cos it's true
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
So love me or leave me, make your choice but believe me
I love you
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
