The Lyrics

I guess this is a kind of prequel to These Foolish Things by Robbie Cool, and is probably more of a parody to that than Frank Sinatra's version, 'cause I've had it on in the car (so to speak)

I saw you dancing, you were quite an eyeful
The way you shimmied like a shaken trifle
Your lipstick - was it Heinz?
But twenty-four pints, and I fancied you

The way you clearly lacked a male companion
Your cleavage deeper than than the Guh-rand canyon
Your nose - just like the Sphinx
Twenty-four drinks, and I fancied you

You came, I'm sore, you conquered me
When you did *that* to me
You gave to me your STD

Your lack of brainpower makes me suspect you'll
Think that Big Brother is *so* intellectual
And Friends, Frasier and Cheers
But twenty-four beers - I thought you were cool

The rush of alcohol's what made me shag ya
Also the tourniquet and the viagra
This morning something stinks
All of those drinks
Repeating on you...

This brings back bad memories that I can laugh about now. 5's

Thanks - and if you liked this, please follow the link above and have a listen to Robbie's version of this. I get a kind of guilty plagiaristic feeling with this one, 'cause although the words are all different, the idea isn't really mine.

24 pints? Phil...I'm astounded you still had a pulse after a session like that! ;-) Great work...I love "beer goggles" themed parodies. 555

"suspect you'll/intellectual" and "shag ya/viagra" are worth the price of admission alone, Phil - 555

K - Poetic license ;-)
Stu - I've had the "shag ya/viagra" rhyme at the back of my mind for literally years now (originally from a Slade "My Oh My" parody I wasn't happy with that never got posted); I was quite pleased with the other one, too :-)

Brilliant stuff, as usual Mr A. The STD mention made me realise I'd completely missed that bit out of my song. Doh!

Yeas ago I heard this fragment and would love to hear the rest... The tattered remnants of a used French lettter A touch of syph'lis that just won't get better And when I piss it stings These foolish things, remind me of you
