Started out with burgundy
A simple Montrachet vintage '53
And a simple meal
Of Marengo veal
With potatoes Lyonnaise on the side
Then my business partner broke the news
He was taking over my wife and shoes
So I drank a bit
And it made a hit
With the part of me that still hadn't died
You know that
Everything gets better when you're drunk
And most everyone becomes your long-lost friend
And say "Madam, have you any change to lend?"
'Cause everything gets better when you're drunk
I graduated down the line
Anything that passed for a pint of wine
Was a treat for me
Took it neat you see
'Cause it's California sun off the vine
Moscatel I drink a quart
Then I follow breakfast with tawny port
And it's cocktail time
But I hold the line
And a jug of kosher blueberry wine
