Happy hour came and went,
and I am spent.
What does it all mean?
In the small hours
I devour what is sweet and sour
Leave behind the bitter coffee beans
Whiskeys in a deathtrap
Just before my nap
Ah the gap
Between you and I
What does it all mean?
It is what it is.
Somewhat bliss.
Thank you for having me.
To you I send my kindest of regards.
