Passing arguments to php script

i want to be able to pass arguments to a php script if it is being piped:

Code:
cat myphpscript.php | php - $1 $2 $3 blah blah

This usually works for other script languages...i.e. ruby:

Code:
cat myrubyscript.rb | ruby - $1 $2 $3 blah blah

so my question is, how can i pass arguments to my php script if im piping it?
