~Favorite Drink Song's~





The Rolling Stones-You can't always get what you want




I saw her today at a reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she would meet her connection
At her feet was her footloose man

No, you can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
And if you try sometime you find

You get what you need

I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
At her feet was her footloose man

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want

But if you try sometimes you might find
You get what you need

Oh yeah, hey hey hey, oh...

And I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
Sing it to me now...


You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes well you just might find
You get what you need
Oh baby, yeah, yeah!

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled

I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
I said to him

You can't always get what you want, no!

You can't always get what you want (tell ya baby)
You can't always get what you want (no)
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You get what you need
Oh yes! Woo!

You get what you need--yeah, oh baby!
Oh yeah!

I saw her today at the reception

In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find

You get what you need

You can't always get what you want (no, no baby)
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need, ah yes...

Werewolves Of London


I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
walkin through the streets of Soho in the rain.
He was lookin for the place called Lee Ho Fooks, gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein.

Chorus:
Aaahoo, werewolves of London
Aaahoo(2x)

Ya hear him howlin around your kitchen door, ya better not let him in.
Little old lady got mutilated late last night, werewolves of London again.

Chorus 2x

He's the hairy, hairy gent, who ran amok in Kent.
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair.
You better stay away from him, he'll rip your lungs out Jim.


Huh, I'd like to meet his tailor.

Chorus 2x

Well, I saw Lon Chaney walkin with the queen, doing the werewolves of London.
I saw Lon Chaney Jr. walkin with the queen, doin the werewolves of London
I saw a werewolf drinkin a pina colada at Trader Vic's
And his hair was perfect.

ahhhooooo, werewolves of London
Draw blood

Yup, thank goodness for gore bull warming. If that wasn’t here, we’d all be frozen to death this winter.

The news had a report about some locale in Oklahoma that recorded the lowest temp ever for the entire state.

We were drinking a drink called...”Nippers”.

Now, I like to drink on occasion (now much rarer) and I have a pretty high capacity before strangers can tell I am intoxicated. I don’t get nasty (so I am told) I just laugh a lot more...:)

So, we are down on the beach, drinking these Nippers, and I have no idea what is in them. At least two types of liquor, with some kind of juice or sweet liquid.

Anyway, I had two or three of these, and I thought they were pretty good. When the next round came down to us, three of the group said theirs didn’t taste like they had any alcohol in them.

I gallantly volunteered to walk back up the the bar and have the bartender check them out.

If you have ever told a bartender something like that, they usually grab a swizzle straw, trap some and taste it or something like that.

In this case, without hesitation, the bartender turned around, grabbed two gallon jugs of some kind of booze (guessing rum and vodka) and proceeded to simply fill the cups...he looked up as he did it, and said “Say When.”

I bought the drinks back down, and the folks said they didn’t want them, so...can’t let them go to waste...they have to go down SOME hatch, right?

We decided to walk up to the...er...bar...if that is what it could be called, and I gathered up two folding chairs and a bag so my arms were full. As I went to get up off my knees, I lost my balance and pitched forward (still kneeling)

Most Un-intoxicated people would simply let go of the items, break their fall with their hands, regather the items and keep on going.

As I toppled forward, that process simply didn’t work, and at the last moment I tucked my chin down and the crown of my head went straight into the sand.

Ouch. I was completely intoxicated at that point, though, and while I didn’t feel a thing, I could not turn my head side to side. That lasted for about three more weeks, I had an MRI that found nothing, but to this day, I have a slight grinding noise in my neck when I turn my head from side to side, though the pain is generally not an issue.

Fortunately for me, there was a woman in our group who appeared to be even more intoxicated than I was, and was not functional. I was functional, could walk and talk, but we had to carry her up the ladder from the raft into the boat. They were afraid she had alcohol poisoning.

To this day, the other people maintain that we must have had some drug slipped into our drinks, but...I don’t think so, at least not on my part.

When I heard this song, much later, though, I laughed uproariously at it. It fit the place to a “T”.
