On Some Days

The Piano Has Been Drinking . . . Tom Waits

This afternoon Andrew and I went to Gindulgence Gin Festival held in Nelson. The forester was our Uber driver.  From now on to be known as Uber Ed.  There weren't as many distilleries exhibiting as last time we went but we did our best to sample various gins.  I bought a bottle of No 8 Distillery Dunners Dry.  Dunners is the student name for the city of Dunedin which has a medical school as well as a university.  The blip is the friendly young women on the Fever Tree stall.  We could assure them we only use their tonics.  Andrew popped in and made the blip more fun.  I do admit to having a lie down when I got home.  

 The piano has been drinking
My neck tie 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
Cause the telephone is out of cigarettes
And the balcony is on the make
And the piano has been drinking
The piano has been drinking . . .
Not me, not me, not me
