Party Animal
Instructions for disappearing
Don’t make me go out tonight
But thank you for the invite
I’ll stay at home in bed
My social battery’s dead
Ugh, okay, fine, alright!
*********************
Now I’m here against my will
Wow, these people have no chill
In the back I can hide
While I’m waiting for my ride
Did I forget my pill?
**********************
At this party I might die
Because I’m terribly shy
You don’t want me heaving
One more drink and I’m leaving
With an Irish goodbye
**********************
If you liked these limericks you might enjoy these too.

'20/20'
"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.

Ha ha, even a party animal needs rest. These days I only wish I was invited.
Oh to be an introvert! Nicely done Leslie!
Interesting take on the challenge. I had to look up “Irish Goodbye “.🤔😊
Very clever, Leslie! You have captured perfectly my sentiments on going to a party. I love that you conclude it with an Irish Goodbye. 😂 Perfect!
Hahahaha! And, a most appropriate goodbye it is. Nice one, Leslie!
Irish goodbye. I like that. This poem is like an introvert anthem. Me being an introvert myself. We don't like to go to places against our will. This whole poem flowed very nicely. 🤗❤️
Hahahahahahahaha this was funnyyyyyy!
This is me...and I'm not even Irish.
I love the humor 🤣 nice !!!!
