An ‘Acid Trip’ Outing
I told her not to go there
but, there are people that she knows there..
It’s a wild nightclub on the edge of town.
The women going in there looked like clowns.
The band is really happenen
as the dancers try for action.
The fiddler keeps on fiddling.
He was only fair to middling.
There’s drinking and there’s dancing.
Not the best place to find romance in.
Most people get hammered & float on by.
The Johnny Walker wisdom’s running high.
Well, I swear it happened just like this.
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss.
The gates of love; they budged an inch.
I can’t say much has happened since.
Most people are getting plastered
till someone there spilled acid.
The whole darn place went crazy twice.
Once for the devil and once for Christ.
The women tore their blouses off.
The men, they danced on the polka dots.
It’s partner found and partner lost.
They would grab another at any cost.
Now things are getting pretty tight.
Then we were blinded in the light.
The boss don’t like these dizzy heights.
He said that’s it for you tonight.
It’s closing time.———————————-R. W. Johnson—–(2013)
