My head was pounding

Like a bass drum

In a marching band

Boom, boom, boom

A rap upon my door

An angel

Before my eyes

Needing help

Moving a couch

Quick to agree but

This hangover

Was killing me

The couch turned

Into a hide-a-bed

Or roughly around

Another 150 pounds

We tried every way

To get that beast

Up those stairs

I cut myself and bled

All over the floor

Ang broke a nail

The angel couldn’t

Stop laughing

At the both of us

Then it began

We talk of cutting

A hole in the wall

A hole in the floor

Cutting the thing in two

Taking the window out

Taking the door out

In the end

We left it standing

On end

In the kitchen

Where it is today

But we call it

ART

And we won’t

Have to move

The damn thing again
