The Tickhead Tavern's closing time
We always wish farewell with wine The Broken Barrel's nighttime carol's Sung off-key; at least it rhymes Adder's Alehouse is open late If you know how to pick the gate But sunrise comes and then we're done Stumbling home at half-past— (spoken, interrupting over last line) Hey, what's that? CHORUS Looks like beer, might be piss Who can tell, t' be completely hones’? Pick it up; give it a sniff Pass it 'round if you can't tell which A drink! A drink! Not like us to discriminate A drink! A drink! Not too fancy for our taste Bastard's Brew's open till two But they'll let you stay until you're through Mr. Haney's only fee is That you buy him his drinks too Always the last stop of the night Comes at break of morning light The final treasure's nighttime pleasure's Finding something new to try CHORUS Some might say we're raving mad They just don't know the night we've had We've never been first to turn in And never will, for which we're glad! CHORUS |
