It was the summit of my long career,
F

But I felt so down, and I drank too much beer,
Gm
Bb
And my manager said that I should not appear.

Gm

I wore a mustache and I parted my hair,
F

And gave the impression that I did not care,
Gm
Bb
But oh, the embarrassment, oh, the dispair.
F
Bb
Came the day, help with a few last glasses of gin,
Gm
F
I nervously mounted the stage once again,
F
Bb
Got through my performance and no one complained,
Gm
F
Thank God I can go back to normal again.
