For the Record

It was stupid; I'm sorry - temptation
Just caught my senses off guard;
I never intended to do it -
And it's left me emotionally scarred.

It was just a small lapse of attention,
Brought on by an excess of drink;
I was not in control of my feelings. . .
I even forgot how to think!

It meant nothing - I didn't enjoy it;
It was foolish to think that I might;
So why did I go and destroy it?
I wish we'd stayed in for the night.

I couldn't perform - It was dismal
Half way through - all the music just stopped.
She said, "Oops, that was truly abysmal".
Only then did I know that I'd flopped.

I got carried away by the moment,
So please can we just keep it low key?
Why did I try it? I should have kept quiet!
Never again - Karaoke.
