Lampshades and Hangovers

Wearing a LAMPSHADE when I woke from this bed
All sorts of pounding still in my head
Need some grease
A HANGOVER release
Oh how I think I'd be better off dead

Tim, My father told me once, as I hugged the commode, teary eyed, hung over: "son, the only cure for that is DEATH!!" Congrats on the high placement or as the song says "I've got friends in low places"

I have to admit waking up with a traffic cone on my head, once. And my shoes were in the fridge. I feel your pain. A worthy win, Tim. Regards, Viv

Reminds me of days gone by LOL. I'd be a wealthy man if I had a dollar for every time I swore off drinking. And maybe if I'd have stuck with it the first time I did. :) A 7 God bless my friend. Ed
