Karaoke

I'm going to karaoke Purple people eater will be my song choice and I'm determined to do it In my best Alvin and the chipmunks voice. It might not win the competition but it will be a lot of fun Isn't that the point of competitions When we enter one ? My mates think I'm the double Of a very young Barry Gibb They want me to sing something by the Bee Gee's but for me that would be a fib. I'm not there to do impressions However brilliant they may be I just have to do my very best and be happy being me. So i'll go along tonight With my helium balloon That will give the voice To help me sing my tune. Then I'll congratulate the winner but if it is a chap He'd better get the ale in Or he's going to get a slap.

I usually sing ''Always on my mind '' nette That has become like a signature tune for me but every once in a while I like to be silly .

There are some fabulous singers Vera but I love those who are tone deaf but think they are marvellous . Those who getting up for the first time are also a joy to watch and listen to .
