Once Upon a Drunken Time
Awake in a daze,
I think I’m still drunk.
What the hell is happening?
I gotta get outta this funk.
Who is lying next to me?
Thank God, my clothes are on.
Where did the sunlight go?
Oh…it’s only dawn.
I thought I left the club,
With my friends behind in tow.
How did I end up alone
With…I think his name, Joe?
Ugh! What a ho!
“Hey you need to leave”
I say to this guy.
“Uh…sure, yea… okay”
He says in reply.
Rap, Rap, Rap,
I hear at the door.
Crap, who is that?
As I step onto the floor.
“Go out my window!”
I frantically say
“What! Are you crazy?”
“Just shut up, obey!”
I force the sill open,
Say a quick bye.
He says, “Can I see you again?”
I say, “No! Now goodbye!”
A quick look in the mirror,
Oh God, I’m a wreck.
Head straight for the door,
Open it onto the deck.
“What a night, eh?”
My neighbor declares.
“Yea, what happened?”
I say in a stare.
“Actually,” I interrupt,
“I don’t want to know.
By the way, I need to go.
I’ll see you later on this morn.”
