A Glass of Beer
© 2007 P Rogers
VERSE 1
Sister called us up to build a new addition
We said we'll do it, yeah, with only one condition
Before we get the tools out or start to breaking ground
We pour a glass of beer and drink the whole thing down
CHORUS
A glass of beer is what we're drinking here
Let the good times roll
let 'em overflow
and when you hear sister say 'Oh Dear"
We've poured another glass of beer
(Oh dear, another glass of beer)
VERSE 2
She met us at the door with some drawings in her hand
I gave them to my brother,
I threw them in the can
I said it's just a rumpus room, what could be so hard?
so we fired up the backhoe and dug up half the yard
BRIDGE
We poured the floor and framed the walls and started on the roof
It looks a little crooked, but I think it’s waterproof
Then we put a window where we should have put a door
I said to Brother Drew it's time to have one more..
CHORUS
Glass of beer, is what we're drinking here
Let the good times roll
let 'em overflow
and when you hear sister say 'Oh Dear"
We've poured another glass of beer
(Oh dear, another glass of beer)
VERSE 3
Well, we finally got it finished and our sister shed a tear
I think she's just so happy to get us out of here
It took twice as long and twice as much for just a place to play
but it pleases in a Neo-postmodern kind of way
It pleases in a Neo-postmodern kind of way
CHORUS
So, a glass of beer is what we're drinking here
A frosty, foamy mug of cheer
and when you hear (pause, open beer) at cue: sister says 'Oh Dear"
We've poured another glass of beer
(Oh dear, another glass of beer)

Well, how do ya like it, Sis?
The floor's a little squeaky, wha? What are you talking about?
The sink's a little leaky, Whoa…Drew put that in
The door's a little creaky Well, you gotta expect…yeah
but at least it shuts....ugh
Try it again (Bang) there…bang ..that’s good enough
