“Saint Patty’s Day Drunk”

Pick a color, pick a name–

Let’s turn it into a game.

I can’t sit, or dance, only grin,

I just love drinking, a very slow gin.

I can’t pick a color, or pick a name;

To me–so drunk–everything looks the same.

I tried to sit, missed my chair and went splat,

Just like slimy butter… I think I’m full of fat!

I’m not toast that you can eat,

Buy some cookies – they’re a better treat.

But like I said, I’m too drunk, on very slow gin;

Stop the room — it’s on a very fast spin.

Saint Patty’s Day is today; I only wanted some cheer.

But why didn’t drunken me, just have a simple green beer?
