THE NIGHT AT THE LOCAL WATERING HOLE BEFORE CHRISTMAS<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

T’was the night before Christmas and all through the joint,
\nall the patrons were stirring while their insides anoint.
\nThe sports odds were writ on the blackboard with care,
\nwhile in front some rank drunkard stood with a blank stare.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Momma Cass in a photo hung over the tap,
\nwhile I opened a bottle and discarded the cap.
\nWhen up on the roof Rambling Rose caused such a clatter
\nwhen she slipped in a pool of some alcohol matter.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Now dazed, with old Harold Jones nuzzling her lewdly
\nin the dumpster outside, she protested quite loudly.
\nThen laying a clenched fist right into his nose,
\nand turning around, up from dumpster Rose rose!<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

The streetlight which cast on the new fallen Rose
\nshowed the luster of garbage from her head to toes.
\nAnd I heard her exclaim as she staggered from sight,
\n“all you tight mother@#$%^s can kiss my lily white!”<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n
