Wasted

In the air, blows my hair In my eyes, a blank stare I’m just wasted Too much wine, it’s divine The most flavorful vine That I’ve tasted Have to go, even though I can’t drive, that I know Call a taxi Stomach churns, how it burns Artichoke dip returns Mouth is waxy I’m not well, they can tell Like a turkey from hell That’s been basted Over there, people stare They just laugh, they don’t care That I’m wasted
