“Terence, this is stupid stuff: You eat your victuals fast enough; There can't be much amiss, 'tis clear, To see the rate you drink your beer. But oh, good Lord, the verse you make, It gives a chap the belly-ache.

Moping, melancholy mad: Come, pipe a tune to dance to, lad.” GivingWellsEnoughTurnsStuffSleepPoorLordClearStupidDrinkHumorousMadRateBeerTunesMelancholyCowsVersesRhymeBellyAchePipeLadChapsSleep Well Author:A.

So you better keep an eye on it".” EyeKidsGuyTurnsGamesRealizingWatchesGenerationsCrazyFootballDrinkDiseaseBeerKicksGenesAlcoholismBuddyFootball Game Author:Nikki Sixx
