ARRIVIN' LATE IN PENBROOK

I HOPE THAT YOU'RE NOT MAD AT US

'CAUSE WE STARTED WITHOUT YOU

IT WAS ALL OF US IN PENBROOK

WE HAD NOTHIN' LEFT TO DO

YOU WERE JUST A LITTLE TOO LATE

AT ARRIVIN' TO THE DOOR

WE SAT AND DRANK, AND SMOKED, AND ATE

AND THEN WE DRANK SOME MORE

WE HAD A BLOOMIN' ONION

AND WE ATE WHAT WE WERE ABLE

MILO LICKED THE DISHES CLEAN

WE LEFT THE JELLY ON THE TABLE

IT WAS QUITE A PARTY

AND THE ASHTRAYS ALL WERE FULL

THE SINK WAS FULL OF DISHES

AND ALL THE GLASSES FULL

SKIRRITS SWAYED, AS GUITARS PLAYED

AND WE SANG OUR SONGS 'TIL LATE

AT LEAST I THINK THAT THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED

'CAUSE ALL MY FACTS AINT STRAIGHT

CHORUS:

ARRIVIN' LATE IN PENBROOK

AND THERE'S NO ONE ELSE AROUND

ALL THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS ARE BLINKIN'

ALL THE DRUNKS ARE HOMEWARD BOUND

FIGHTIN', FUSSIN', FEUDIN'

THIS'LL NEVER DO AT ALL

SO, SLAP YOUR BUTTER ON HER BREAD

AND HANG HER PICTURE ON THE WALL

TAKE ADVICE FROM POET FRIENDS OF YOURS

WHEN THEY SAY TO "BE POLITE",

AND SIGN A TRUCE, AND LET'S GET LOOSE

AND DANCE ALL WEDNESDAY NIGHT

BY THE TIME YOU GOT BACK TO THE PLACE

WHERE THE PARTY RAGE-ID ON

THERE WAS NOTHIN' LEFT FOR YOU TO DO

'CAUSE EVERYONE HAD GONE

JUST EMPTY BOTTLES HERE AND THERE

THE TRASH PILED BY THE DOOR

TOILET PAPER IN THE TREES

AND BALLOONS WERE ON THE FLOOR

I'M SO SORRY YOU WERE LATE

WHEN YOU SHOWED UP TO THE BALL

SOME PEOPLE CAME AND WENT, AND CAME AGAIN

AND SOME DIDN'T COME AT ALL

BUT, SOMETIMES THAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE A PARTY

OF THE MAGNITUDE OF THIS

ALMOST EVERYONE SHOWED UP

EVEN ONES THAT WEREN'T ON THE LIST

SO, PLEASE JUST DON'T BE ANGRY

MISUNDERSTANDINGS PUT ASIDE

JUST HUG AND KISS FOR THE CAMERA

AND LET'S ALL GO BACK INSIDE

REPEAT CHORUS
