Get Drunk With Dignity
Tim Cavanagh
When you’ve had too much to drink
there’s certain things to keep in mind.
Like when you find your hand and underarms are bleeding
your beer bottle might not have a twist off cap
and don’t ever go home with a woman they call Moose
or Vince
And never bet that you can fit your head inside a glove compartment
Get drunk with dignity
Keep in mind that just because a bulldog licks your face
its not necessary to lick him back
Stay away from drinks with names like
brain seizure or hippo laxative
Get drunk with dignity
If a bar has human ears nailed ot the walls
don’t pass out there
and if your homemade jello has some goldfish in it
you used the wrong bowl
And there are phrases you must learn to avoid
phrases like
“that badge looks stupid”
and
“I can prove these shoes are fireproof”
Get drunk with dignity
try not to drool on bikers
Don’t moon a nun
unless you got a real good reason
dont get romantically involved with farm machinery
Get drunk with dignity.
Discovered the Doctor in 1974 in California. Thank God American Forces Radio carried him. Way before the Internet and International Direct Dialing. Kept me sane while stuck overseas for 2 years as a CIA brat with nothing but occasional TV shows that we had to watch at home on a Station-provided movie projector.
Thanks to all those artists who kept on when their parents said they'd go blind, today I'm a Happy Boy!
Yeah!
I had a friend named Larry. He hated that song.
“I didn’t know he was still around.”
Same here. I remember listening to him when I was 16-18 late at night.
Me too...retiring now? I would have guessed Doctor D. retired 40 years ago!
“Over the Edge” from “Berserkeley” is still going strong tho....another late night teen/20’s “forbidden pleasure”.
“My Name is Larry” still cracks me up
Poisoning pigeons in the park.
Dead puppies aren’t much fun.
That’s because he went full subscription on the internet. I have many fond memories of listening to him with coworkers in the parking lot after work, but there was no way I was paying to listen to him decades later.
Jeez, I don’t even have to hear it. The moment you mentioned it it started playing in my head. Every word memorized. First heard it in 1979, and carry it with me to this day. What a silly thing to keep in long term storage.
Same here. Shortwave, also, was exotic stuff for a kid.
