Oh, the horror of it
It happened, it's true
I opened my fridge
And knew I was through
No champagne!
I searched on the shelf
I checked in the door
I went to the cupboard
Hoping to score
No champagne!
I ran to my neighbor's
And told her the troubley
I asked if I might borrow
A cupful of bubbly
No champagne!
She searched in her fridge
And double-checked in the door
She went to her cupboard
Hoping to score
No champagne!
Continuing my quest
I hopped into my car
Surely a supply of the stuff
Couldn't be far?
No champagne!
To the market I hastened
I cut through the crowds
Made a beeline for the wine cooler
And shouted out loud
Champagne!
I bought a dozen bottles
There's a discount that way
And ignoring the disapproving glances
Stepped up to pay
Champagne!
The refrigerator replenished
My cupboard completed
I raised up my goblet
And this solemn vow repeated
Champagne!
Life is too short
So I shall take a firm stand
To always keep a champagne stash
Chilled and on hand
