Drunken Jim
by TD Euwaite
Here I am
Once again
Reaching out
To my old friend
Holding on to him as he falls down
When I’m not here
He drinks beer
Then he calls the neighbors, “Queers!”
They come over mad
And whip his asss
Shut up drunken Jim
Full of Schnapps and Gin
For a nightmare believer
And his homely old dog…!.

Staggering down the street
He gets the funniest looks from
Everyone he meets
Hey, hey, he's a junkie
Little ol' ladies scowl
But better hold on to your purses
When he's on the prowl
*Now YOU guess the Monkees tune!.*
Oh, what's this!? We got a two-fer today:
I”m a Believer
I thought love was more or less
A paying thing
It seems the more I paid
The less I got
Awwww !. !. !. what’s the use in trying (hey, hey, hey)
My escort is a sight
Disappointing woman
What a fright
Then I bagged her face
Now I can’t see her
Not a trace
Of her face in my eyes
I’m in love
Aahhhhhh
I can’t see her
From the neck up
And it’s alrightWww@QuestionHome@Com
