| Parody Song Title: | "Wine from a Bottle" |
| Parody Written by: | Rex Ungericht |
The great Alvin Rhodes gave us "Wine from the Bottle" in October of 2005. Here's my take on the same subject.
When I'm drinking wine from a bottle
There's just one conclusion to draw
That my drunken old a$$
Was too snockered to go get a glass
Or a cup or a straw
If only the wine lasted longer
But bottles go empty so fast
I save Chardonnay like a treasure and then,
On weekends I get really trashed
But there never seems to be enough wine
To fill the time from Friday night
Until Monday
The cork is pulled, we start to pour
And then we find there is no more
Come Sunday
I start with Claret or Chianti
Then Reisling, Merlot, and Rosé
An Asti Spumante
Won't trouble or daunt me
I drink 'til the French seem ok
But there never seems to be enough wine
The Zinfandel is gone by nine
But we're happy
Take my advice, I've drunk enough
It's better to avoid the stuff
That's crappy
There's just one conclusion to draw
That my drunken old a$$
Was too snockered to go get a glass
Or a cup or a straw
If only the wine lasted longer
But bottles go empty so fast
I save Chardonnay like a treasure and then,
On weekends I get really trashed
But there never seems to be enough wine
To fill the time from Friday night
Until Monday
The cork is pulled, we start to pour
And then we find there is no more
Come Sunday
I start with Claret or Chianti
Then Reisling, Merlot, and Rosé
An Asti Spumante
Won't trouble or daunt me
I drink 'til the French seem ok
But there never seems to be enough wine
The Zinfandel is gone by nine
But we're happy
Take my advice, I've drunk enough
It's better to avoid the stuff
That's crappy

"I'd drink til the French seem okay"---great line. So just how many bottles would that be?
flowed nicely
Is there any reason I wouldn't vote fives for this?....wino, no reason..
Thanks Royce, Alvin, and (hic!) AFW.
Get thee to a winery. 555 :-)
Excellent and tasty parody
"Would you choose water over wine?" I think not! Great stuff, Rex. Have 5 bottles of '55 vintage.
