Something to say

Walking round all day
Just want something to say
Something say
Something to say
Cut me some slack Jack
I'm on a hard highway
Cut me some slack
Cut me some slack

I'm just looking for something to say
There is so much silence it seems these days
Sometimes they tell you lies
Sometimes its truth ok
But I'm just looking for something to say

All I'm asking is for something to say
Don't leave me in a libary in the silent parade
Don't throw me to the lions for having a big mouth
I can keep secrets, there nothing down south

Hi Chris

You look like Scott

I may be sometime

Oates, you mean Oates

Oates said I'm off to get some porridge

Scott

was racing Ombudsmen the Norwegian

Amundsen

Yes the two reasons why that failed

were food and clothing

It must have been difficult to get there

and realize you've been beaten to it 


They ate their dogs, Amundsen

Hot dogs

Originally

Scott's team had to make do

With poor clothing

And their machines broke down


There was an Australian who went up Everest

Before Hilary

A sheep farmer

He invented the down coat

Up down

No Eider

I'd ha what?

I'd ha thought it would be

He advised Hilary who was a New Zealander

So they got on both from down under

And they had Tensing

Ten cent?

Genetically designed to work at high altitudes

I wish I were
