Delirium Tremens.

The title is taken from a Christy Moore song about the perils of drinking heavily before bed. It's a hell of a lot better than my ditty, but we can only do our best, can't we?

 I took a trip to Blackpool

On a sunny summer’s day

I met me there

A maiden fair

Who came from old Cathay

We rode upon the dodgems

And we paddled in the sea

With much aplomb

We strolled the prom

And ate cream cakes for tea

But then the lady vanished

And through darkest mist I fell

To wake in bed

With throbbing head

And feeling most unwell

I haven’t been to Blackpool

Since the lady shared my cream

I fear I’ll see

Her taking tea

In someone else’s dream
