Read Dream Myself Alive At Christmas Page 8


  So Felix decided to address the situation.

  “Why haven’t we spoken in years?” he asked, dumbfounded

  “I don’t really know,” she replied, and continued:

  “Whoever said that love was easy, was lying. That isn’t clearer to see.”

  Felix realised she was reciting the words to his latest song and smiled.

  “Sometimes I feel like I am dying,” he said. “Oh baby set me free.”

  “From the spell you have me under,” Holly continued. “It makes me kind of wonder, does the pleasure equal out the pain?”

  “Feelings raging out of control, should I sell the devil my soul?” Felix followed on. “Slowly I am being driven insane.”

  There was a beat of silence.

  Their eyes locked.

  “This is killing me,” Holly said, breathlessly.

  “Us. Being Apart.”

  A lone tear ran down Felix’s cheek.

  “Like an axe through my heart,” he concluded.

  And finally they embraced, kissing passionately and tearing each other’s clothes off as they did…

  But evil, mad cow and shape shifting bitch Rita Barker was not ready to be truly reckoned with, just yet.

  Pink Champagne’s own comeback had somewhat faltered again.

  And Rita knew the only thing stopping Tequila Sun from complete and total utter world domination was Felix and Holly getting back together again.

  The new single was already number 1 in the midweek chart and pre-orders for the album were going through the roof.

  She was jealous and simply had to stop them, once and for all.

  So she shape shifted into Rhino and stole his magic powers again.

  She then turned him into a poodle with a bad perm and pink rinse.

  She thought this rather appropriate.

  And oh how she laughed that evil laugh of hers.

  Then as Felix and Holly made sweet love, she snuck into the apartment to set a further spell in motion that would change things forever.

  She lit a black candle and started to chant.

  Soon Felix and Holly were making love… on a one way rocket to the moon!

  But before Rita could leave the apartment, Cherry made an unexpected visit, so she quickly shape shifted into a fly to hide.

  “Felix? Holly?” she yelled. “Are you guy’s home?”

  Cherry looked in the bedroom and saw nothing but ruffled sheets.

  She noticed the black candle on the table, which looked like it had just been put out.

  The fly was buzzing around it.

  “Ooh, kinky,” she thought to herself.

  She decided to wait for them, much to Rita’s annoyance.

  She picked up a copy of Smash Hits magazine from the magazine rack next to the sofa.

  The date on it read 15 May 1987.

  Tequila Sun were the cover stars.

  “This is a blast from the past,” she said, as she sat down to read it.

  Then she heard the fly buzzing around again.

  It started to annoy her.

  So she rolled up the copy of the magazine and swatted it.

  The End

  BAND PROFILE

  Tequila Sun were the original pop tarts, formed in 1984, and whose career originally ran until 1988.

  Band members Just Felix, Holly Wood, Cherry Fontaine and Rhino Zagreb were plucked from absolute obscurity and manufactured on pop’s Mr Sheen polished production line.

  Tri-sexual superstar Felix (Just Felix to his closest friends) was chosen as lead singer, because of his swagger and ability to fill out a pair of skin tight stone washed denim jeans.

  Holly Wood was always destined to be a star. She was christened in waiting, enrolled in singing lessons before she could talk and dancing lessons before she could walk.

  Cherry Fontaine was born Chesney Foster and surpassed all expectations… beyond and then some; courtesy of a zest for life, an unrivalled eye for fashion and a lot of spunk (both literal and metaphorical.)

  Rhino Zagreb was the irrelevant cardboard cut-out of the band. His replacement Hawky Andrews gave up a high-flying career as a poodle hair stylist to help take the band back to the top of the pop charts, where they well and truly belong.

  They had an abundance of pop hits in the 80s, including the Christmas chart topper ‘Snowman in Sunshine’ (“You make me feel like a snowman in sunshine, Baby I’d melt every time I looked in your eyes, I was a snowman in sunshine.”)

  Following their reunion they returned to the charts with hits ‘Supermarket Checkout Operator’, ‘Hard Luck Kind of a Guy’ and the number 1 smash ‘This is Killing Me’.

  Their biggest adversary remains their own volatile personalities, as well as their inability to keep their genitals in their underpants; and of course their evil nemesis’… rival pop band Pink Champagne.

  LYRICS:

  Supermarket Checkout Operator

  When I first saw her my heart skipped a beat,

  I grew 9 inches, I lost my shredded wheat,

  Her hair was golden, her eyes emerald green,

  To avoid her beauty you would need a vaccine,

  Chorus: Oh-oh Supermarket Checkout Operator,

  Please be my sexual navigator,

  Check me through, I’ll be good for you,

  Supermarket Checkout Operator

  Easy on the eye but my wallet felt the strain,

  Became a shopaholic, threw my money down the drain, had to see her almost every single day,

  She was a walking poster girl for foreplay,

  Repeat Chorus

  I still go there for my bi-daily fix, overstocking on baked beans and Weetabix, but I know I’ll never forget just how I really feel, I won’t risk the fantasy on a 2 for 1 deal…

  Repeat Chorus to fade…

  Hard Luck Kind of a Guy

  I found a four-leaf clover one day,

  But before it could bring any luck my way,

  I broke a mirror in seven places,

  And blew all my money on the races,

  Chorus: I’m just a Hard Luck Kind of a Guy,

  Nothing ever goes my way I tell you no lie,

  I’m just a Hard Luck Kind of a Guy,

  Somebody tell me why…

  (Somebody tell me why…)

  I met this bird by the bar one night,

  With legs eleven heaven she looked quite a sight,

  I began to tremble as soon as she spoke,

  But the hot chick I’d pulled turned out to be a bloke

  Repeat chorus

  I should be so lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky,

  I should be so lucky or not,

  I should be so lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky,

  I should be so lucky so what?

  Repeat chorus to fade…

  This Is Killing Me

  Whoever said that love was easy, was lying, that ain’t more clear to see,

  Sometimes I feel like I am dying, I am dying, oh baby set me free,

  From the spell you have me under, makes me kind of wonder, does the pleasure equal out the pain,

  Feelings raging out of control, should I sell the devil my soul? Slowly I am being driven insane

  Chorus: This is killing me (us being apart)

  This is killing me (like an axe through my heart)

  This is killing me (till death us do part)

  The way I feel about you

  This is killing me (bang, bang, I’m dead)

  This is killing me (you’re filling me with lead)

  This is killing me (you heard what I said)

  The way you make me feel

  Why does love get so possessive, there should be a limit, when it screws you up inside, maybe you should, kill it…

  Repeat chorus to fade…
