Whenever sponge-nosed Pete
Met the cop on the beat
He was higher than a fly on a spray
Any day
When Pete knew he was booked
At the policeman he'd looked
And defending his virtue
You could hear him say
Have you got the gumption
To make the assumption
That I'm inebriated?
Have you got the gall
To say alcohol has gone to my wig?
I ain't had a drink, sir
Since I made the clink, sir
The night I celebrated
At the garbage man's ball
When we had that brawl
You remember, officer?
You may be the law
Still, there could be a flaw
In your calculations, old top
Met the cop on the beat
He was higher than a fly on a spray
Any day
When Pete knew he was booked
At the policeman he'd looked
And defending his virtue
You could hear him say
Have you got the gumption
To make the assumption
That I'm inebriated?
Have you got the gall
To say alcohol has gone to my wig?
I ain't had a drink, sir
Since I made the clink, sir
The night I celebrated
At the garbage man's ball
When we had that brawl
You remember, officer?
You may be the law
Still, there could be a flaw
In your calculations, old top
