Regarding Becca

I must apologise to everyone who follows this with polite inquisition, several unavoidable things have cropped up and I have been unable to twist your world view for the time being. Those I have spoke to would like me to press on with the friend series and I will now tackle someone who asked me to get on with their post so they could end the friendship:
Rebecca. A. Nicholls

Deep research into the past had me uncover that the girl in question was raised by Sheep and a rotating German called Hans. A full account is available on her fansite but here I should be more concerned with an account of how she is day-to-day and why we're friends...
Well I couldn't think of more appropriate way than to rewrite "Gaston" from "Beauty and the Beast"

Gosh it was painful to write this Becca,
Hastey but not at all rushed
Tell me you want it removed then Becca
Basic'ly I will be crushed

Theres no friend I have I admire like you
You're funny but you make me sigh
Music and art is inspired by you
And its not very hard to see why...

No one bleats like Becca
She's elite our Becca
No one pays out the nose for a sweet like Becca
For theres no one so bright and so bubbly
Clever but slightly absurd
You could try to make her act less oddly
but she'll still go forth strangely and so undeterred

Such a pain that Becca
Yes, Insane that Becca
No one catches the incorrect train like Becca
Such a loathing for Westerfield Railway Station
My what a mind that Becca

Give five hoorahs, give twelve hip hips
Becca is best and the rest is all drips

No one thinks like Becca
No one drinks like Becca
Wakes up in the bath, next to the sinks like Becca
For theres no one as pleasent and Naive
As a stranger you're known as a friend
Unless you can be said to be creepy
Then she won't want to meet you and will not pretend

No one speaks like Becca
No one freaks like Becca
When she yawns loudly, nobody squeaks like Becca
And her likeness to sea mammals is amazing
Yes! Ten points to Becca

When she was a young girl in Felixstowe
People saw an unusual star
She's up there in Bradford now, causing a scene:
Weird magnificence viewed from afar!

No one chats like Becca
Tit-for-tats like Becca
and gets angry when you hide her hats like Becca
Innuendos make up her vocaulary!

Say it again!
Unplanned comedienne
And then say it once more
has us all on the floor
Who's a pleasure to know
Has us laughing, although
She has times where she seems really wise
Though she's really unsure
We still, frankly, adore!
And her name, as I've said, is Becca!

So it's not totally perfect but I hope you have a laugh or two reading it.
More posts soon and much more frequent.

All the best to you,

Alex

  1. Hee! This made me chuckle (and really want to watch Beauty and the Beast).

    Just a quick grammar nazi point: "it's not totally perfect but I hope you have a laugh or TWO reading it."

    Otherwise this is a slice of fried gold :)

  3. Aww, you wrote a song for a girl on Valentines day! How cute.
    I especially like the use of the vague simile;
    "her likeness to sea mammals is amazing".
    Does she resemble all sea mammals morphed into one mega sea mammal, or just one specific one?

  4. Hee hee hee, incredibly humorous. But one does have to wonder: why have you not yet included an entry for your most beloved of all cousins? Maybe I should have drowned you in the swimming pool in Portugal when I had the chance...

    Just kidding, Sweetie. Keep up the blogging, it's good for a laugh x
