Mamma Mia! - Part 4: Mamma Mia!

Note: This is a continuation from the previous posts. Don't take the middle path. So read the Part 1 through 3 first, before reading this post.

Scene:
Angelo Mathews is playing against New Zealand in the semi final clash. He looks up at the crowd cheering him and finds a pretty girl in the stands waving a placard carrying the message "Mathews - Marry Me". He stops concentrating on his batting and suddenly starts singing to the tune of "Does your mother know":

You're so hot
Teasing me
So you're blue but I can't
Take a chance on a chick like you
It's something I couldn't do

There's that look
In your eyes
I can read in your face
That your feelings are driving you wild
But girl you're only a child

Well, I could dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
But does your mother know that you're out?
And I could chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
But does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?

Take it easy
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?

Scene:
Shoaib Akhtar is waiting for his skipper to give him another chance to play as his final swansong. He meets his captain and begs to be part of the semi final clash against India and starts singing to the tune of "Take a chance on me":

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, I am gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

Take a chance on me
That's all I ask of you honey
Take a chance on me


Scene:

Its the television commentary box during the India - Pakistan semi finals match. Manjrekar and Sourav are taking a break after commenting for six overs are so. Slowly Manjrekar looks at his fellow commentator Sourav and with obvious reference to the IPL Auctions of 2011, starts singing to the tune of "The King has lost his crown":

I believe your new girl turned you down
And they say she's pushin' you around
How does it feel, I guess it hurts your pride
Tell me my friend how many nights you've cried

Disaster and disgrace
The king has lost his crown
Suddenly
He's clumsy like a clown
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown

Was it hard to step down from your throne
And to know tonight you're all alone
Oh what a shame, you really want that girl
She doesn't care, still you just dream of her

Disaster and disgrace
The king has lost his crown
Suddenly
He's clumsy like a clown
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown


Scene:

The Indian skipper Dhoni, has again selected his pace(??) bowler Nehra for the Semi Final match. It was totally unexpected, even for the bowler. The captain is conveying the news of the selection to the bowler, before the semi final clash with Pakistan. The captain starts singing to the tune of "Mamma Mia"

I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don't know how but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, w-o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know,
My my, I could never let you go.

I've been angry and sad about things that you do
I can't count all the times that I've told you we're through
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that I'm not that strong.
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, w-o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here I go again...


End of Part 4. The Final Act follows....
