- Music by SimpleSimon
- Words by Stewart, David, Hobes, Rustic Bucket, John Fitzgerald, Simple Simon and Alister
VERSE 1
wasted long and lonely nights
crumpled scraps of paper
lie discarded
broken threads of words
that promise hope but leave me standing
where i started
RISE 1
I'm trying so hard to sing one simple truth; it evades me
I open my heart and the quiet voice inside persuades me
to
CHORUS
have a beer
the song sounds much better
after beer
have a beer
the words come together
with a beer
VERSE 2
typing dust from all your pores
tired phrases leaking
from your fingers
you and I've been been through all that
trying to make an honest song for singers
RISE 2
but answers emerge out of nowhere at times like a river
and these are the times you hang on to and capture forever
(Chorus)
BRIDGE
don't just stew around and whine
beers the drink to help unwind
once you've had a brew or two
inspiration comes to you
be it lager, be it ale
that amber nectar never fails
so if your stuck and can't create
just knock back the whole damn crate!
(Chorus and fade)

Hello all..while its no mystery that I'm gorgeous and hotter than Colin Farell, it seems that here I'm constantly under the shadow of a certain other member from Wales whose name I won't mention (S.A.)...Now, I don't understand this cause we couldn't be more different: I'm demure, he's loud...I drink wine, he loves beer...I'm romantic, and well..he's always horny. So once and for all, I'm Marty G and not the other guy from the Miscellaneous forum!!! -- Ok, now that it's out of the way, I'm presenting the award for Best Newcomer, who, according to an overwhelming amount of the voters, have brought a lot to the forum with her contribution, presence and overall enthousiam for life. The winner is !
"Breakout" Award - for Best Newcomer
Shemuse............wwwoooooooooooohhoooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
Shemuse congratulations on "Breakout" win. It's well deserved.

I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands

I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye.

Friends We Haven't Met
? 2003 SilkyTofu
Verse 1
Come in and out of the rain
Sorrow's on the run
It caught an east-bound freight train
Outruns the setting sun
So you've guessed, I'm headed west
Please pull up a chair
I'll tell you 'bout my best friends
Waiting for me there
Chorus
Best friends, are friends we haven't met
They're the ones we won't forget
I believe we'll get along forever
You don't recognize them yet
Friends, are friends you haven't met
Friends like us should always stay together
Verse 2
Sue Anne in Texarkana
Wrote a song for me
And, crossing Arizona
Picked up some harmonies
A hobo, Rio Lobo
Named his dog Rusty
Said Rio?"Rusty loco"
"But he stills sings in key"
Chorus
Bridge
Me, Sue Anne, Rio, and Rusty
Have a million dreams unplanned
There's room for you in our blue Chevy Van
Chorus
["EVERYBODY SING!!!"]

Hey all my peeps. I'm Lana and I'm here to present a couple of awards to you. Now, these things aren't easy to come by, you understand? Oh, I had to get them myself. And oh yes, am I going to make you suffer a good ten minutes of award-show patter for my trouble! Now what could such comic fluff consist of? A tale of christmass cheer? A drunken pub story, possibly? Prehaps a tall tale? Or maybe just the tale of what happened when I went to the trophy shop...
Good evening sir. And how are you today?
"Oh, fine, fine thankyou."
*self-pointing gesture*
"Oh, and you?"
Radiant, sir. Radiant.
Looking for an award, sir? A muse's-muse award? Look at them all there, all shiny grips and polished spheres.
"Yes, they certainly are nice awards, these."
Don't you think sir would look grand with one of these awards, Kenneth?
Suit you sir.
Suit you. Ooh!
Take this one for instance. Ooh! Suit you.
"Yes, that one does look... or this one prehaps?"
Sir has expensive tastes.
"Well, I do like to keep up appearences."
Suit you, sir. Something for the ladies.
Did you go out last night, sir?
Were you out with a lady-freind, sir?
Did she want it, sir?
"I beg your pardon?!!"
Did she beg your pardon, sir?
Was she knelt at the plinth, clutching the head of a newly-won figurine, sir?
Ooh! Suit you!
"This is outrageous!"
I expect, Ken, her tongue was rolled out like the red carpet.
Most probably, Kenneth.
"Goodbye!"
Suit you, Kenneth!
Suit you, sir!
Ooh!
...
And this makes me wonder, the following quandry:
"Who could this character be, to which the two tailors of televisual fame refer?"
I give you:
"Dirrty" Award for Raunchiest Poster
HoneyBrown
Congratulations Honeybrown!
You put the "raunch" into "iest"... which, um, wouldn't be much without it really, I think...
So well done! And let's have a big hand! Careful where you put that big hand now!
And now, to introduce to you today's award winner who could've made the last featherweight recognition-based sketch which nobody much would've got the point of into a quality gut-busting comedy link...
"LMAO" Award - for Funniest Poster
Victor Smallwood
Congratulations Victor!!!
You are the victor! I can't think of anything that rhymes with "victor" right now! Woo!
Oh, and, should anyone actually laugh their ass off during any of Victor's moments, please proceed in a calm manner, either during the interval or at the end of the show, to the Ass Collection Point, to the rear of the lower garage by the back side of the bottom building, where you will need to present the security officer with your ownership of detachable ass licence, and a passport-sized office photocopy of the lost item, in order to re-establish control of your own ass.

8:20 AWARD PRESENTATION
It's hard to imagine that such a place like this- a place of magnificant beauty, intellectual brillance, dazzling spectacles; could ever.... could ever...... could ever....... could ever......
Could somebody PLEASE give this damn teleprompter a kick!!!??????
Thankyou!!!
Now, where was I? Ah, yes... the award. Oh man, I've forgotten what category was written on the card that was handed to me none-too-carefully before I strolled forth into these glaring bright lights...but yes, I just want to say how important the "Tunesmith" award is: on a writers board, there cannot be learning without the songwriting gurus who share the wisdom about the intricaties of the artform. There have been a lot of you this year, and I personally applaud you for your contributions...but since there can only be one winner, the most informative poster goes to:
"Tunesmith" Award - for Most Informative Poster - Songwriting
Yukon
Let's have a round of applause for Yukon...Now our next award is handed to the best debator off topic... and I myself have been known for enjoying a good debate. I sometimes wonder if, when a lot of people start contributing to such a discussion, it might better be known as a "Mass debate", and if so would it be likely to make those who participate go blind - but I digress.
The winner is:
"Smartass" Award - for Best Debator - Off Topic
Disposable
Congratulations Disposable! And good luck to all the nominees tonight

"Oh No, You Didn't" Award - for Poster or Reviewer with Attitude
KALIE, she was something wasn't she, now which one was she? Oh, her
Unfortunately because of the alignment of the planets and the full moon Kalie could not be here tonight. So I will accept this award on her behalf. No really I'm keeping it. She's not exactly in a position to do anything about it is she?
The next award acknowledges a duo of posters who did the best flirt or fight performance in thread. So the winner of the...
"WTF" Award - for Best Flirt or Fight Performance by a Duo in a Thread
Is...Stewart Alexander & Honeybrown, mariaharron, Shemuse
yeh right
Are you still here?
If I screwed this up you can curse me. If you want.

and I'm not going to let
a little thing like death
get in the way of this,
.
You can make all the rules you want
I'm still going to bother people
We always knew it would come this
no thought was put into this

JODI KRANGLE - "TOO SOON FOR FOREVER"
Listen to audio
Lo-Fi | Hi-Fi
Too Soon For Forever
? Jodi Krangle
Verse 1
I lie beneath the covers
Remembering your touch
And I wish I'd told you more
Though I'm afraid I said too much.
Verse 2
Did we discover something precious
Or were we answering a need?
Did it mean as much to you
As I think it meant to me?
Chorus
If I told you that I dreamt about forever
Would you laugh and tell me not to make too much of just one night
Is this feeling something I should never show
Am I just crazy not to know
That it's too soon
Too soon for forever.
Verse 3
I can tell my heart it's lying
But I don't believe it's true
'cuz a part of me already knows
Forever is too soon.
Bridge
Now I'm not the type to pledge my heart
To just a pretty face
And I know that I should try to take it slow
But there's more to this than just one night
Though it might sound insane
Nothing to lose and oh so much to gain.
Can I take the chance and risk my heart again?
Verse 4
Was there a hidden meaning
In the icy glare of dawn
As it touched upon the pillow
Cold and empty now you're gone.
Chorus
Chorus
If I told you that I dreamt about forever
Would you laugh and tell me not to make too much of just one night
Is this feeling something I should never show
Am I just crazy not to know
That it's too soon
Too soon for forever.
