The Piano Has Been Drinking (Not Me)

The piano has been drinking,

My necktie is asleep

And the combo went back to New York,

The jukebox has to take a leak

And the carpet needs a haircut,

And the spotlight looks like a prison break

And the telephone's out of cigarettes,

And the balcony is on the make

And the piano has been drinking,

The piano has been drinkingAnd the menus are all freezing,

And the light man's blind in one eye

And he can't see out of the other

And the piano-tuner's got a hearing aid,

And he showed up with his mother

And the piano has been drinking,

The piano has been drinking

As the bouncer is a Sumo wrestler

Cream puff casper milk toast

And the owner is a mental midget

With the I.Q. of a fence post

'Cause the piano has been drinking,

The piano has been drinkingAnd you can't find your waitress

With a Geiger counter

And she hates you and your friends and you

Just can't get served without her

And the box office is drooling,

And the bar stools are on fire

And the newspapers were fooling,

And the ash-trays have retired

'Cause the piano has been drinking,

The piano has been drinking

The piano has been drinking,

Not me, not me, not me, not me, not me
