The Night Before

Edthepoet

The guiness half poured
A penny for your thoughts
The lack of applause
As the tribute band pause
And the barmaids draws
Lay on the cubical floor
From the night before
The night before...

Barrys banging on the bandit
His girl can not stand it
Another night in with the TV
And an over romantic comedy

He'll fall through the door
Between 3&4
"There's more to life than the local"
She tries to get vocal
He mumbles half an insightful line
As the room starts to spin
And her patience wears thin
Her diamante wedding ring
Leaves a mark on his chin
As his head bounces off the floor
"I can't live like this no more"

The guiness half poured
A penny for your thoughts
The lack of applause
As the tribute band pause
And the barmaids draws
Lay on the cubical floor
From the night before
The night before...

Tashas dancing on the tables
Coyote ugly fail
Another scar to add to her knees
An over blown sense of invincibility

She'll fall into the door
Between 3 & 4
"There's more to it than getting pissed"
Her mum begins to list
She whispers half an insightful line
As the wallpaper dances
She's run out of chances
"You'll end up out on the streets
If you don't rein it in
Life isn't one big free for all
You can't live like this no more"
