|
The piano has been drinking, |
|
My necktie is asleep, |
|
And the combo went back to New York, |
|
The jukebox has to take a leak, |
|
And the carpet needs a haircut, |
|
And the spotlight looks like a prison break, |
|
'Cause the telephone's out of cigarettes, |
|
And the balcony is on the make, |
|
And the piano has been drinking. |
|
The piano has been drinking, |
|
And the menus are all freezing, |
|
And the light man's blind in one eye, |
|
And he can't see out of the other, |
|
And the piano tuner's got a hearing aid, |
|
And he showed up with his mother, |
|
And the piano has been drinking. |
|
The piano has been drinking, |
|
As the bouncer is a Sumo wrestler, |
|
Cream-puff casper milktoast, |
|
And the owner is a mental midget, |
|
With the I.Q. of a fence post, |
|
'Cause the piano has been drinking. |
|
The piano has been drinking, |
|
And you can't find your waitress, |
|
With a Geiger counter, |
|
And she hates you and your friends, |
|
And you just can't get served without her, |
|
And the box-office is drooling, |
|
And the bar stools are on fire, |
|
And the newspapers were fooling, |
|
And the ashtrays have retired, |
|
'Cause the piano has been drinking. |
|
The piano has been drinking, |
|
The piano has been drinking, |
|
Not me, |
|
Not me, |
|
Not me, |
|
Not me, |
|
Not me. |
