altho yer ‘umble hero needs no validation

there i was a big room full of tables

good i got my mother sitting next to me

what a character

she got to talk to tv host richard wilkins

that was more exciting than moi i guess

no she enjoyed it i think

i sat there watching all other geezers making speeches

i had no speech

suddenly i realized i was sitting there no speech no nothing

who the fuck was i gonna thank

i dunno

my mind was curiously empty

then when i was starting to chuck a few things together in my head

lindy morrison wanders over

the drummer from the go-bes

yeah look relax ok dont be tense

well….

then jesus

george negus inducted us

crikey gawd

george negus a very heavyweight political journalist

a character with some fucking gravitas my fiendss

he inducted us

the guy from aust 60 minutes wow!

then i walk towards the stage

my mind is a friggin’ blank

and then

suddenly it came forth

as i had been trusting

the words fell outta the air into my head

i rambled on for 10 minutes or so

and i got it right

i cant remember what i said now

i dont wanna

but lo

the assembly judged my words to be good

many said ” that was the best speech i ever heard!”

well aw shucks

i trusted in the universe

the universe delivered me something

i guided it through my brain

and it came out i was lucky

i was lucky

i trusted but i still was lucky

i coulda croaked

i coulda  stood there empty handed n open mouthed

offending people n stuff but i didnt

i managed to get it right

then

the churchies played a couple of numbers

utmw of course

tantalised with strings couldnt hear em but know they were great

afterwards schmoozed a little

hey they all loved yer ‘umble hero ok??
