Rove look down on us with favour

 

This song was performed by Tripod on the last episode of Rove for 1999

 

So it looks like the end for our friends
the funksters of Rove
for all  their clever japery
...they couldn't out clever the icy hand of DEATH...

 

Perhaps there's a lesson in what we just witnessed
or maybe they're just victims of just general shitness...
...but...

Do you remember "Other peoples lives"?
...what a corker!

Do you remember "Idiot Boxing"
...it was ace!

And the fruit shop guy with the moustache who said "Coupla days!"

No!...That's' the Comedy Company, that was Mark Mitchell...

 

Oh Rove, if you're up there, l
, ook down on us with favour

Now when Kerri-Anne's in trouble
who's there gonna be to save her?

Oh Rove, you and your waggish mates
you'll be cracking gags at the pearly gates

So Rove, I'll say "hi to my mum" for you
...

 

So what bit in the whole of the Rove season was your favourite?

That's easy...my favourite bit was when we met this band, Oscar Lima in the dressing room and they gave us a free shirt...

...

No, I was actually thinking what was your favourite bit on the actual show!

...

Oh right, the show...

...ummmmmmm
ummmm....
...ummm....

 

Do you remember the controversial cliche test?
It was the best

When they killed two birds with one stone
...they were stuffed--too right they were
stuffed...they didn't have a chance!!!

How many jokes can you get out of one single beard?

I thought of it!

My favourite joke is when they dress up as a woman
...like when Pete was a lunch lady
...and Dave Callan dressed up as Kylie Minogue
...AND...
When Corrine Grant dresses up as a woman...
its' a bloody pisser...
I'm gonna miss her
...

Oh no, I'm coming over all Celine Dion...

 

Oh Rove, if you're up there,
look down on us with favour

Geez we're gonna miss you
and all your mischievous behavior

Oh Rove, you and your waggish mates
You'll be backing gags at the pearly gates,

Oh Rove, I'll say "Hi to my mum" for you

 

Rove was the greatest talent since Daryl Somers and his career was cut short. He had so many good years left in him. For 28 years he was the king of television!!!....

...um, sorry this song isn't about Daryl Somers, it's about Rove!
oh yeah..

 

.

Do you remember when Rove went out at the start and stuffed his jokes up?
..but then he made light of the whole thing
and it was okay!!!

Do you remember the week after that, you know...
when Rove stuffed up his jokes...
...but it was okay...
cause he made light of it...
and the next week
(errrrrr)
His joke got
(errrrrrrrr)
Stuffed up
(errrrrrrr)
AGAIN!!!
...But it was okay because he made light of it....
...it was fine..

.

Why don't they just use cue cards?

Cue cards!?
(Reads from cue card....)No one uses cue cards anymore...

Do you know what my favourite bit was?

When Tripod played the last episode
and sang that song at the end...
They were great...

 

Oh Rove, If you're up there
look down on us with favour

Now who's gonna give our Wednesday nights
that clever
yet accessible
flavour...
...While other men were climbing mountains of snow, you just wanted...
....Your own tv show!!

!

Oh Rove
know you're up there
with Davo and Corrine
(You're up there)

Peter overused the word "testicles", so he'll have trouble getting in

Oh Rove
you rambunctious little elf

Up there the kids jokes are all top shelf

Jehovah's gonna cack himself!

Oh Rove
I'll say "Bye to my mum" for you

 


Cowboy X

 

Whoa.......Rah rah he! Rah Rah yah! Rah rah he! Rah rah yah!

 

Scod: Could you not do that?

 

Let me tell the story that was told one time to me by people who had had it time to them

By their forefathers...and their foremothers

It was a little late person travelling through, said the story telling parents- but that's not the focus of the tale

What's important is the story of a stranger who came riding on his horse, on the dusty trail

 

Gatesy: That does look like riding on a horse, doesn't it?

Scod: It looks like doing something to a horse

 

He's embellished it by saying that it was a dusty trail, but i think it's pretty safe to assume,

That the road building methods of the time would have been quite crude, to say the least

Yon: Well strictly speaking, to say the least would be to do this- uu..

But you get the idea

 

Noone knew where he came from, noone knew who he was

But presumable his parents and a few childhood chums knew him

 

Rah rah he! Rah Rah yah! Rah rah he! Rah rah yah!

 

Scod: Gatesy! We've talked about this

Gatesy: Ahh! But i wanna do this!

Scod: You're wrecking it for everyone

Gatesy:I'm just trying to give everyone a yah!

Yon: They don't want the yah!

 

He rode a horse, a great black steed, and Sprirt was it's name

The horse's name, not the bloke

The finest gambler in the county, he broke all the ladies' hearts

I'm still talking bout the horse

 

The man rode round performing cats that may have broke the law

Or hanged in someone in some other way

So subsequently, he was inevitably

Bought up with some stable county appointed figure of authority or local strang man

One fateful day....or night.

 

Brought before a judge or jury, he may have been put to death

Or he may have escaped in some exciting way...or boring way...like a legal loophole

There he goes, riding into the sun

He dissolves into a vapour as he nears the burning orb

Or maybe it's just a metaphor

Yes, definitely a metaphor.

 

I'm not sure of the details but the story must be told

Of this man, or maybe a woman's destiny

But the lesson to be learned, is before you tell a story do one thing...

Do your bloody homework

 

Whoa.......*bird noises*
