A long topical song

To the tune of ALL THAT JAZZ from CHICAGO:

JONATHAN ROSS:
Come on Rus-
-sel, go pick up the phone
Call Andrew Sachs

RUSSELL BRAND:
Oh me oh my
Seems like he's not at home
Where's Andrew Sachs?

How the hell're
We gonna fill this slot?
We should be talking to him
But instead we're not

The show must go on
And so af-ter the tone (BEEP)
Hi And-rew Sachs!

Sad to hear
That we can't talk to you
Sir Andrew Sachs

Still, let's carry on
And do the interview
With Andrew Sachs

Hi there Andy
We think you're talented
ROSS:
He f**ked your granddaughter
In a king-size bed
While you were at the shops
She was giving him head

Sir And-rew

ROSS AND BRAND:
Sachs

ROSS:
Sex

BRAND:
Don't be so crass

ROSS:
Hot-cha

Whoopee

She liked to spank his ass

BOTH:
(soft and diabolic)
Ha! ha! ha!

BRAND:
Oh, what have we done?
Was just a bit of fun
Sir And-rew- Sachs

ROSS:
Our audience
Don't like this abuse
Of Andrew Sachs

Who'd have thought
That it would make the news?
We're un-der attack

BRAND:
Come on Wossy
Let's go tell the folks
That it was just some fun
Was just a silly joke

And we didn't mean
To upset that bloke
Called And-rew Sachs

BOTH:
Oh, even Gordon Brown
And Cameron
Have called us sick

Oh, the wanker bankers never
Got so much
Pres-sure to quit

Oh, to think they're all complaining
When, the economy is waning
Still, the air turned blue
On Points of View
‘Cos of our pranks

Now we've both
Made an apology
To Andrew Sachs
Still we're sus-pen-ded
From the BBC
BRAND:
I got the sack!

Never mind
We're still millionaires
ROSS:
We've got no graces
BRAND:
And we've got no airs
And if truth be told
I did her on the stairs
And that's a fact

BOTH:
Oh, you can see Georgina
Shimmy Shake
She shakes that ass

Oh, the Satanic Sluts go dancing
Till dawn breaks
She is real class

She even wears a girdle
Oh, her Grandad's blood'd curdle
If he'd hear
His baby's career
Poor And-rew sachs

The initial idea is a bit of a stretch, but it is a nice fit to the lyrics and the stage origins should make it fun to perform.

Thanks, Timbo. Just had the damn song in my head, and thought it might work with the Sachs thing, despite not being the closest rhyme.

Glad you think it's fun, was trying to tell the story reasonably well, and had that burlesque, debauchery tone which I thought was appropriate.
