Parody Song Title:

"Lost Weekender"

Parody Written by:

Hic.
"Lost-Weekender"

Love my binges, love my toots,
Being in my cups,
Pickled, pie-eyed, tanked pursuits
Of those bottoms-ups.

Love a blowout, love a bender,
Getting hammered, high,
Tight and tipsy, a "Lost Weekender,"
I hate to be dry.

Lit or liquored, gassed or boozed
Anything but straight --
Merry, jolly, jugged or juiced,
I’m an inebriate.

Wasted, totaled, soused or sotted,
Any drunken state
-- Oiled, or boiled or plowed or potted –
I appreciate.

Don’t want to be by 12 steps cured,
Just a bottle in a bag
Of Rippleâ„¢ wine (or Thunderbirdâ„¢)
To keep me on a jag.

Very funny today Stan. RE: Thunderbird we used to say "What's the price-40 twice...What's the action-satisfaction"

Thanks, JB & IB. Now, do I lose points for ’ffessin' that neither T-Bird nor Ripple was ever my tipple? There was a time, tho' when college poverty kept me on a diet of PB&J and PBR. :-)

Ahhh...those long gone days of drunken education. I remember when PBR was $3.99 for a case of 24 cans. Two bucks a man for a blissful and pissful night.

How dare you include my name in your drunken revels - hee hee. Five bottle of Tickle Pink for you.

The title takes me back to the old Ray Milland movie, "Lost Weekend"...I guess that's where the expression comes from...Clever, and tricky metaphors, lines and phrases

funny and sad at the same time....'lost weekend' is one of my favorite movies of all time
Stan - January 22, 2008 - Report this comment
Alvin & AFW ... thanks. It shouldn't surprise, I guess, that the Milland movie and its title's serendipitous rhyme with Elvis's song's own is precisely what inspired this parody.
