Hello everyone :-D I have been having lots of fun, as you will see. Sorry got carried away, I was just being really ridiculous. You will not believe how many takes this took, hence the sigh at the end, it tooks me hours just to get past the first couple of lines, talk about laughing fits lol. I'll tell you what, I wrote this after some Bailey's (a tiny bit) :-D on new years day, about 2am. Erm, it was pure stream of consciousness writing, hence the randomness, more than the usual, but the original isn't exactly not random. Anyway, the funny thing is, I googled Shakespeare to see if it was even possible, and it turns out Queen Elizabeth The First was the Patron of his theatre, it is possible, and she WAS old enough to be his Mum *gulps*. Plus, I thought I was being ironic with the camel thirst and wondered if they do ever get thirsty, so I googled that, it turns out they DO go crazy when they get really thirsty and they've been rampaging and terrorising people (apparently) in Australia, you should of seen my face lol. It's not even funny, but it was quite a shock! Don't you just love bizarre coincidences though :-) A thousand apologies to Ken, for calling him by his Surname, it just fit better! I won't ever do it again, I promise! Ken, this is for you :-) I absolutely love your cover of Man On The Moon! I tried. It's like one of those gifts you get that you'd sell on ebay, take to a charity shop, or give to your in-laws, but I hope you appreciate the sentiments behind it! :-D I didn't wear my mask, coz I know it scares you, but then, my face isn't much better! I mentioned Adelle because she's completely awesome X :-D And of course Kenny and the Captains are in there too (space cheez and yah, in case you're confused) lol. X

He obviously did a completely excellent job, as always :-)
Love and hugs from Ruth :-)
PS I've got a challange for you. Write a the most random lyrics you can think of based on Man On The Moon. The more random the better, in my opinion :-) Chords are on ultimate guitar, although I used D instead of Dadd2 or whatever it was. Do it just for the fun of it, the world needs more smiles :-) plus would make me very happy :-D
