Straight From the (Drunken) Horse’s Mouth
Published by Gail June 30th, 2006 in Linkage
In an effort to do descriptive justice to the debauchery of last night and this morning I’m going to redirect you, since I was merely a bystander who had one bottle of Pomtini*.
So I’ll let you hear the tale directly from the source (who did not imbibe in Pomtini, but red red wine, just like the UB40 song**):
Riri’s Brain Dump: The Drunkening
* Pomtini is an alcoholic beverage imported from England (classed as a cooler, I think, with vodka added), but when I think “Pom” I don’t think of a pomegranate, but the slang label “Pom” or “Pommie” from when I lived in Australia. Although more etymologically likely to be derived from pomegranate (the explanations are rather weak), the popular usage for “pom” as in “those whingeing Poms!” is reserved for Brits who complain rather than the delicious fruit. I think over the course of the 13 months I lived there I heard every Pommie joke in the Aussie jokebook. “Pommie bashing” is a real sport Down Under.
** Red, red wine
Go to my head
Make me forget that i
Still need her so
Red, red wine
It`s up to you
All I can do, i`ve done
But mem`ries won`t go
No, mem`ries won`t go
I`d have thought
That with time
Thoughts of her
Would leave my head
I was wrong
And I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don`t let me be alone
It`s tearin` apart
My blue, blue heart
—red red wine rap section—
Red red wine you make me feel so fine
You keep me rocking all of the time
Red red wine you make me feel so grand
I feel a million dollars when your just in my hand
Red red wine you make me feel so sad
Any time I see you go it makes me feel bad
Red red wine you make me feel so fine
Monkey pack him rizla pon the sweet dep line
Red red wine you give me whole heap of zing
Whole heap of zing mek me do me own thing
Redred wine you really know how fi love
Your kind of loving like a blessing from above
Red red wine I love you right from the start
Right from the start with all of my heart
Red red wine in a 80`s style
Red red wine in a modern beat style, yeah
(chorus)
Give me little time, help me clear up me mind
Give me little time, help me clear up me mind
Give me red wine because it make me feel fine
Mek me feel fine all of the time
Red red wine you make me feel so fine
Monkey pack him rizla on the sweet dep line
The line broke, the monkey get choke
Burn bad rizla pon him little rowing boat
Red red wine i`m gonna hold to you
Hold on to you cause I know you love true
Red red wine i`m gonna love you till I die
Love you till I die and that`s no lie
Red red wine can`t get you out my mind
Where ever you maybe i`ll surely find
I`ll surely find make no fuss jus` stick with us.
(chorus)
Red red wine you really know how fi love
Your kind of loving like a blessing from above
Red red wine I love you right from the start
Right from the start with all of my heart
Red red wine you really know how fi love
Your kind of loving like a blessing from above
Red red wine you give me whole heap of zing
Whole heap of zing mek me do me own thing
Red red wine in a 80`s style
Red red wine in a modern beat style, yeah.
