Away With The Fairies

Once upon a time, There was a young man named Murphy, who packed a few plates, a few knives and forks, A couple of sandwiches ,and then set off on a train journey to the city of bright lights and pollution. This of course was London. Murphy had heard the story of Dick Wittington of course,though he did not think that the streets were paved with Gold as Dick had,which is just as well,because they were not. He did discover though that the streets where paved with people who had no homes to live in, and people who had mental problems ,or had just run away from homes that they could no longer bare to live in. Murphy had not ran away from home or any of the other things though,he had come to London to train as an actor. It was here while at the acting school,that he met a young Damon Albarn. At first Murphy watched this strange Cockney Geezer from a distance,though as time moved on Murphy found that the Albarn geezer was not a bad cheeky chappy at all. Soon they were playing music together. Albarn would play his broken plastic Yamaha keyboard,while Murphy would improvise vocals, or sing some songs which Damon had written about his long gone girlfriend. "Well ive been there,and i died there,when love kills." Murphy liked singing this heart torn song that had been penned by the young Albarn. Later on he would always remember that the second verse started "Have you ever had that sacred moment,when everything becomes a Blur, and two souls become one in ........"(alas forgotten) A Blur is in fact what The Albarn geezer of course became. It was soon after the young Albarn and Murphy had started jamming together that Murphy realized that Albarn seemed to have itchie feet. Soon it was revealed why. Albarn had decided that he wanted to leave the acting school and form a band,he also wanted the scouse git Murphy to leave the school and be in the band also. Murphy was a little shocked,he looked at this young man and knew that this Albarn geezer would achieve the stardom he craved for,and still,Murphy said no,he could not leave the acting school. The rest is British pop history.Damon Albarn became the frontman of the successful Britpop band BLUR. Murphy graduated from school and worked in british theatre and set up his own Shakespearean theatre company,though he still continued to write music.
