The Best Genie ever -Never had a friend like Him-
-In Agrabah-
"Well, my friends. I have to leave you now but remember to cherish my memory by singing the song I sang and telling the jokes I told" Genie said.
"Once last song, Genie?" One of his Fangirls asked.
"Yeah, please?" They begged.
"Ok, this is for all of you fans out there!" Genie cried as the music started.
"Well Ali Baba had them forty thieves
Scheherezad-ie had a thousand tales
But master you in luck 'cause up your sleeves
You got a brand of magic never fails
You got some power in your corner now
Some heavy ammunition in your camp
You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how
See all you gotta do is rub that lamp
And I'll say
Mister Aladdin, sir
What will your pleasure be?
Let me take your order
Jot it down
You ain't never had a friend like me
No no
Life is your restaurant
And I'm your maître d'!
C'mon whisper what it is you want
You ain't never had a friend like me
Yes sir, we pride ourselves on service
You're the boss
The king, the shah
Say what you wish
It's yours! True dish
How about a little more Baklava?
Have some of column "A"
Try all of column "B"
I'm in the mood to help you dude
You ain't never had a friend like me
Can your friends do this?
Do your friends do that?
Do your friends pull this out their little hat?
Can your friends go, poof?
Well, looky here
Can your friends go, Abracadabra, let 'er rip
And then make the sucker disappear?
So doncha sit there slack jawed, buggy eyed
I'm here to answer all your midnight prayers
You got me bona fide, certified
You got a genie for your chargé d'affaires
I got a powerful urge to help you out
So what-cha wish? I really wanna know
You got a list that's three miles long, no doubt
Well, all you gotta do is rub like so - and oh
Mister Aladdin, sir, have a wish or two or three
I'm on the job, you big nabob
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend like me
You ain't never had a friend like me, hah!" Genie sang.
"Yeah" The fans exclaimed as they applauded him.
"Thank you, thank you. I wish I could this all night but I have to go…" Genie said, sadly.
"Will you come back?" One of the hungry children asked.
"Look up at the sky and just remember I'll be watching you…always" Genie said as he flew up into the sky and vanished.
"Remember me for what I was and share the jokes that made everyone smile, laugh and even cry and I will live on" Genie's voice said from Heaven.
So they told everyone of his jokes, tales and performances and his memory will live on…NEVER forgotten.
Well, This my own tribute to Robin. We all remember his voice most as Genie, only a handful will have seen his earlier movies. I think I've seen Jimanji, Miss Doubtfire and even Hook once.
Let's always remember his talent and watch his movies along with Aladdin to remember his voice and humour…forever.
Rest In Peace, comedy legend like Genie you're now free!
Robin Williams (21 July 1951-11 August 2014)
We all hope you're in a better place now.
