The Visit

The visit I was in Porsgrunn once to visit my uncle In the evening I went dancing at a noisy venue I was in the Navy at the time and wore a uniform People were nice and gave me plenty to drink Back on the street, I kept falling over, and the police Bless them let me sleep on a couch in them Office until early morning I took the bus to the coastal town where I was Stationed; somehow, I got drunk again And they wouldn’t let me into the camp since I was supposed to be there at ten, I had to sleep On a park bench till morning. The police in Porsgrunn were more civilized.
