The sun has set but I can’t yet
I haven’t got what I came for
Just one more
I come in here because
The booze, the boys, the buzz
Unorthodox
Up on the jukebox
The sun’s got a curfew
It turns off before I do

When the neon exit sign becomes the full moon
A switch should remind me that it’s time to go soon
Mine’s burned out or broken, though, or maybe just bored
“One for the way home” I say and am never ignored
This is how a whiskey mind wanders and does so at ease
I smile like a woman and always say please
“No charge” says the nice man, and my night is set
Proceed without caution, where’s that cigarette
There’s a party I throw that just doesn’t end
Tonight I’m writing poetry with a very close friend
