At the Crow’s Laugh Inn
Dancers strobe by the bar
The electric body pulses
As the dealer smokes his fat cigar
Crow’s Laugh was founded in 1784
With ale and lager and wine
Now men hold each other
And form a chorus line
King George was the object
Of that ancient corvid’s scorn
Now women watch each other
Slow dance into the morn
Soon, the crow will be laughing
At another madman’s fall —
You’ll see my body moving
On the floor with the lovers all
