Alcohol

And everybody say, "Is he all right?"
Everybody say, "He sure looks funny"
That's Montgomery Clift, honey
He said, "Go out, get me my old movie stills"
"Go out and get me another roll of pills"
There I go shaking, but I ain't got the chills
Ahh, buh buh, ahh!
And everybody say, "What's he like?"
Everybody say, "Is he all right?"
Everybody say, "He sure looks funny"
I was trapped, Montgomery Clift, honey
