History Eraser

I got drunk and fell asleep atop the sheets but luckily I left the heater on
 And in my dreams I wrote the best song that I've ever written
 Can't remember how it goes
 I stayed drunk and fell awake
 I was cycling on a plane and far away I heard you say you liked me
 We drifted to a party – cool
 The people went to arty school
 They made their paints by mixing acid wash and lemonade
 In my brain I re-arrange the letters on the page to spell your name
 I found an extra pound and made a bet that if I found a cigarette I'd drop it all and marry you
 Just then a song comes on
 "You can't always get what you want" – the Rolling Stones, oh woe is we, the irony!
 The stones became the moss and once all inhibitions lost
 The hipsters made a mission to the farm
 We drove by tractor there
 The yellow straw replaced our hair
 We laced the dairy river with the cream of sweet vermouth
 In my brain I re-arrange the letters on the page to spell your name
 You said, "We only live once"
 So we touched a little tongue, and instantly I wanted to
 I lost my train of thought and jumped aboard the Epping as the doors were slowly closing on the world
 I touched on and off and rubbed my arm up against yours and still the inspector inspected me
 The lady in the roof was living proof that nothing really ever is exactly as it seems
 In my brain I re-arrange the letters on the page to spell your name
 We caught the river boat downstream and ended up beside a team of angry footballers
 I fed the ducks some krill then we were sucked against our will into the welcome doors of the casino
 We drank green margaritas
 Danced with sweet señoritas, and we all went home as winners of a kind
 You said, "I guarantee we'll have more fun
 Drink 'til the moon becomes the sun
 And in the taxi home I'll sing you a triffid's song!"
 In my brain I re-arrange the letters on the page to spell your name
