All By Myself I Love To Drink

all by myself...

all by myself I love to drink
its the only time I get to think
though my lunch may land in the bathroom sink
all by myself I love to drink

when I sit and drink I like to write
its my one and only real delight 
though the drinkin messes with my sight
when I sit and drink I like to write

I cannot write between the lines
they swirl and curl like clinging vines
thou' the ideas I have would blow folks minds
I cannot write between the lines

I wake again in a pool of drool
this passing out is just not cool
my head and the desktop are in a duel
I wake again in a pool of drool

all by myself I drank and wrote
the drool around my heads a moat
the desktop has won and so shall gloat  
all by myself I drank and wrote
