flashback .. my last night
at the dance club .. enjoyable
seemed the night went by fast
danced with every fine lady
happened to be sitting at my table
i'd much on my mind
being a test car driver
for Mercedes-Benz
my stellar career there
had reached it's end
so much to think about
I drank and drank
usually i'd maintain
not this particular night
going home alone was strange
it was crazy indeed
fast forward .. I recall
waking sloppy drunk
I knew i'd hit the bridge
the forgotten night .. before
my beautiful classic car
i'd thought a minor bump
maybe a few tiny scrapes
peeking out of my door
my car looked totaled out
entire driver's side
front of hood to trunk
crunched like an accordian
headlight pointing sideways
my poor stomach .. roared
I took two bc powders
my head was pounding
feeling sick .. laid back down
a six-pack of cold beer later
began feeling righteous again
memory returned
spent half the night
with a first grade teacher
she was a lesbian needing a man
the craziest .. damnedest thing i've ever seen
