lyrics

Breaking the ice at social events
Paper umbrellas and silver tents
Cocktails down broken air vents
Whiling away the hours at night
Bottle of Port strapped in tight
Prozac and vinegar won't make it right
Mangled thoughts, common sense
Mixed about like pennies and pence
A cheap mystery for ladies and gents
Soft on the palate, a reasonable bite
Caesar lives but loses his sight
Spontaneity reigns supreme tonight

The old darlings in the crowd
Keep their emotions unallowed
Forced to sit and watch in vain
My drunken antics in the rain

My dignity departs unsaid
All of their guests are seeing red
Any hope left was long left bled
Exit last word to my disgrace
Gravel and grass engulf my face
Champagne's cheap - another case?
Throbbing brain & memory loss
Ivory kiss like candy floss
Regrettable words from the boss
The clock displays what's left of time
With it's jagged rhythmic evil rhyme
Death to armani and calvin klein
