Thursday, November 09, 2006 RUM GIVE ME RUM!!!! I did it! It is official! The money just left my account not 10 minutes ago – we bought a house – we get the keys tomorrow. And the very first song that comes on the CD as I get into my car to leave the bank…. I drank sixteen doubles for the price of one Trying to find the courage to talk to one I asked her for a dance Not a second glance My night had just begun Well I drink to the father and the holy ghost I'm kneeling at the alter of my nightly post So I'll raise a glass, not the first nor last Come join me in this toast [Chorus:] Because the old black rum's got a hold on me Like a dog wrapped round my leg And the old black rum's got a hold on me Will I live for another day? Hey, Will I live for another day? Well the queen of George street just went walking on by Walking on by with some guy who don't care That she stood in line Since half past nine And spent three hours on her hair (On her hair!) Well her friend is looking at me with an evil grin I think the bloody racket might soon begin I must have said some thing To the George street queen The boys are joining in! [Chorus] So I drank all of my money And I slept out in the rain Everyday is different but the nights they're all the same You never see the sun on the old black rum But I know I'm gonna do it again! [Chorus 2x] YA!!!! And then I drove past this guy sitting on the sid of the road with the sign: “starving artist will work for food”. My GOD what have we done? Technorati Tags: I need some rum!
