Notes About The Poem

Going Under Is Not The Way......Over!

Are We Having Fun Yet

You promised again..
That you're a new man
'Things would be different
This time

You said...for sure
You're over her
You're gonna have some fun
Tonight

We went to a club
Her name came up
That's when it all
Hit the fan

Now you're getting paler
Drunk as a sailor
Is this a part
Of the plan

Chorus:

Are we having fun yet
Is this painting the town red
Isn't that what you said
A six pack ago
Shouldn't we be laughing loud
Instead of you passing out
Are things looking up now
Down here on the floor

I think you need help
You don't look well
Rolling around...
By the bar

You're here for the night
You ain't gonna drive
I doubt if you can...
Find the car

I must admit...
When I see you like this
I think you're not...
Very smart

But hey, what do I know
I go where you go
After all.....
I'm your heart!

Are we having fun yet
Is this painting the town red
Isn't that what you said
A six pack ago
Shouldn't we be laughing loud
Instead of you passing out
Are things looking up now
Down here on the floor!!

The flow is awesome Chuck! And I like the twist of who the narrator is :) I had a similar one with my mind speaking to my heart but only a few people got it. So I took it down. Great write guys!
