Re: On the first day of Christmas

Lines adopted from "Bohemian Rhapsody".

Is this the real life?

Is this just fantasy?

Caught in a landslide,

No escape from reality.

Open your eyes,

Look up to the skies and see,

I'm just a poor GTS bod, I need no sympathy,

Because I'm easy come, easy go,

Little high, little low,

Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.

Mama, just fired a man,

Put a strike through his payroll,

Pressed my my keyboard, now he's gone.

Mama, life had just begun,

But now I've gone and banked my bonus

Mama, ooh,

Didn't mean to make you cry,

If IBM is not back in the black this time tomorrow,

Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters.

Too late, my time has come,

Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go,

Gotta leave you all behind and face the job market.

Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?

Galileo Figaro

Magnifico-o-o-o-o.

I'm just a GTS bod, nobody loves me.

He's just a GTS bod from a poor performing unit,

Spare him his life from this monstrosity.

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?

Bismillah! No, we will let you go. (Don't let him go!)

Bismillah! We will let you go. (Don't let him go!)

Bismillah! We will let you go. (Don't let me go!)

Will let you go. (Don't let me go!)

Never let stay (Never, never, never, never let me go)

Oh oh oh oh

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Oh, mama mia, mama mia (Mama mia, don't let me go.)

Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me.

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?

So you think you can love me and leave me to die?

Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,

Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here.

Nothing really matters,

Anyone can see,

Nothing really matters,

Nothing really matters to me.

Any way the wind blows...

With thanks and apologies to Freddie Mercury. May he rest in peace
