about

There's some sort of poetic Chinese tale about a Drunken Moon but I think I was just thinking about the wobbly feeling when you've had too much to drink. And the disoriented feeling when you've been up all night and the night turns to day.
Harmonies courtesy of Annie Jennings Ferreria (former TBW piano playing songwriter extrodinaire) and Gray Bouchard of Salem Wolves

lyrics

Is it me or is it my eye,
or do the planets wobble up there in the sky?
If it’s me I hope they don’t cut me off too soon
I’d prefer to blame the drunken moon

Is it dark or is it the day,
or maybe I’ve just gone blind? I can’t really say
I can’t say just where I’m goin’,
so I’ll just blame the drunken moon

She don’t care, not a care...
In this world, just floats up there
She don’t care, just drifts away.... In the light of day

And when it's time to close this bar,
Time to go on outside and warm up the car
Cash out the drawer and wander on home
and bid goodnight to that drunken moon

she don’t care, not a care in this world,
shines the same on each and every boy & girl
Just spins around and drifts away... In the light of day

She don’t care, not a care in this world,
shines the same on each every boy and girl
when it's time to bid you adieu, know we love you (good night)
