The Lyrics
ALEHOUSE STOCK
I went and planned a party in my town house flat,
Invited special friends to share some drinks and chat.
The food was ordered but a problem then arose,
The place that I had planned to get drinks was closed.
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock,
When learning of the alehouse stock.
My friends were sympathetic as we played some cards,
While others in another room they played charades.
The food was eaten but the problem still arose,
The place I had planned to get the drinks was closed.
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock,
When learning of the alehouse stock.
I went and put some music on so folks could dance,
There wasn't too much room to move, but took a chance.
The room got hotter and my friends were getting dry,
But though I had planned to get the drinks nearby...
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock
When learning of the alehouse stock.
The only drink I had at home was soda pop,
And once my friends caught onto it, they didn't stop.
A girl called Sally had the fizz go up her nose,
But what could I do when all the stores were closed?
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock
When hearing of the alehouse stock.
The time had come for everyone to go back home,
And leaving me to do the clearing up alone.
I don't suppose my friends will ever come again,
To socialise without a drink is quite insane.
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock
When hearing of the alehouse stock.
Hearing of the alehouse stock
Hearing of the alehouse stock
Hearing of the alehouse stock
Hearing of the alehouse stock
I went and planned a party in my town house flat,
Invited special friends to share some drinks and chat.
The food was ordered but a problem then arose,
The place that I had planned to get drinks was closed.
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock,
When learning of the alehouse stock.
My friends were sympathetic as we played some cards,
While others in another room they played charades.
The food was eaten but the problem still arose,
The place I had planned to get the drinks was closed.
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock,
When learning of the alehouse stock.
I went and put some music on so folks could dance,
There wasn't too much room to move, but took a chance.
The room got hotter and my friends were getting dry,
But though I had planned to get the drinks nearby...
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock
When learning of the alehouse stock.
The only drink I had at home was soda pop,
And once my friends caught onto it, they didn't stop.
A girl called Sally had the fizz go up her nose,
But what could I do when all the stores were closed?
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock
When hearing of the alehouse stock.
The time had come for everyone to go back home,
And leaving me to do the clearing up alone.
I don't suppose my friends will ever come again,
To socialise without a drink is quite insane.
No stock,
Don't believe it, no stock.
It's no wonder that I suffered shock
When hearing of the alehouse stock.
Hearing of the alehouse stock
Hearing of the alehouse stock
Hearing of the alehouse stock
Hearing of the alehouse stock

I hate when this happens
I'm not sure why you were soaked with all those "1" votes. IMO the pacing, rhythm, and the like were about as close to Elvis' rendition as you could get. As an attempt at humor, you could say this was a nod to the Prohibition era, where "refreshments" were available--at the right price! (Well, Eliot Ness might have had something to say about that but I digress.) Please, keep up the good work!
This was great! I also feel bad for you and others getting unilaterally and undeservedly uno-bombed. I will restate it: VOTING NO LONGER MATTERS HERE.
Thank you for your support. The same idiot gives me 13 ones for every song I write but I have learned to ignore him. Many more to come.
Voting can still matter, as long as you ignore "Mr M13", and understand that this is one guy doing this for God knows what reason. You apparently favor me with your 13 vote cluster munition, M13, but it doesnt help me out. I still have no clue how my submission is bring received, because I know the 13 TUs are bogus. So would you please stop. You're doing more harm than you know
