Charlie the cowboy got a fright,
when aliens started a fight.
He prepared to save the town's plight,
before the day turned into night.
Guns by his side, rode into town,
ready to battle till sundown.
Saw the sheriff dressed as a clown
and his deputy in a gown!
In shock, asked "what's going on here?"
"Wave the white flag and bring some cheer,
because we've drank far too much beer."
Adding, "we'll get drunk without fear!"
The 'E.T's seemed a bit puzzled,
but drank till the wine was guzzled!
