The fact that he had just been told there was a spaceship in his neighbours garage should really have caused Seamus some concern right? The thing is, if you knew anything about the man next door at all, then you would understand that in the grand scheme of things a little spaceship wasn’t that much out of character.
So the news found Seamus calmly shrugging his shoulders as opposed to running about the yard like a headless chicken, whilst squealing like a pig!
“So what does he plan to do with this spaceship then?” he asked.
“Well dance to it I presume,” said Billy looking at his best friend quizzically. “What the feck did you think he was going to do with it?”
Seamus started to laugh, until that is he looked at Billy’s face and realised that he was actually serious.
“Is there some kind of little dance you do to get it started? Does dancing make it happy? How the hell can you dance to a spaceship, Billy ffs, catch yourself on!”
“There’s no need for the sarcasm sunshine, I’m pretty sure you press a button to turn it on, and dancing to it certainly seems to make him next door happy. Yesterday I heard him singing along to it as well.”
“Billy sometimes I wonder about yo….” started an exasperated Seamus.
“Look if you don’t believe me, see for yourself, there he goes now to get it started,” said Billy pointing towards the garage at the top of the garden.
Sure enough, giving them a wave, their neighbour slipped in through the garage doors. Many bangs and clanks could be heard from within.
“Any minute now,” shouted an excited Billy bouncing up and down.
Next thing Seamus sees are the doors of the garage being flung open and he can hardly believe what his ears are hearing, as out of the garage comes the all to familiar lyrics….
♪ Looking in your eyes I see a paradise, This world that I found is too good to be true.
Standing here beside you, Want so much to give you…… ♪
“I know what I want to give you Billy ya fecking dickhead, that’s not a spaceship, that’s Starship!! See if I get my hands on you……”
