Al Capone And His Siamese Cat Al Capone is home alone He’s all drunk, slams down his mobile phone He asks ‘Where’s the party at?’ Parading in his party hat, Stretching his braces, dancing in his Pin striped slacks, He paces up and down his one bed flat Singing… ‘I’m a real slow soaker A Leisurely lush A dipsomaniacal Pentium slug Ha Ha!’ Outside his window, people just walk on by They don’t care for drink Al Capone bemoans and cries… ‘How can I fight prohibition When there’s no legislation The people...They do the work for the politician They are alcohol free by their own volition?’ Capone downs another bottle in his one bed flat Home alone in his party hat, Alone, apart from his pet Siamese cat A cat resigned to his rambling drunken chat Al Capone rants... ‘Why does no one get drunk no more? What ever happened to dopamine? We are human, surely we must drink? How can I profit? If people do not drink!' I am human, and I am flawed like a man Flawed with my DNA strands, Lets embrace that and enjoy a drink, No more self-imposed prohibition Dance and sing with total abandon With no inhibition!' Leaning out the window, A bottle in his hand, he shouts at passers by One last rallying cry ‘Party! Like the old days! Lets have a drunken mutiny Screw all this on-line scrutiny Yes, save on those medical bills But how else you going to get your thrills?’ Outside, people just walk on by Striking poses on their mobile phones, Making self-portraits in a world of their own Nobody listens to Al Capone, He is drunk he is home alone Apart from his pet Siamese cat Who’s stolen his party hat, Striking poses on his very own Mobile phone 'Just look at me Capone! You think I’m a typical stay at home cat I got a million followers What do you think about that? Check my moves, look at me spiral, All I got to do is dance and it goes viral! I wear your party hat for likes, Ha, ha I’m now a big brand influencer I’m the fastest coolest cat dancer! If you don’t sober up Capone, Then you’re get left behind, Polish your brand Capone Leave the drink behind Drink makes you slow and foolish, A record of regret A real Pentium slug And what’s attractive about that! Make profit like me Capone A real dancing singing cat! Cause… AI don’t drink Capone, AI don’t get drunk, Drink is bad for the brand Capone It never looks good, And it pays to look good! Drink and the brand don’t mix, And where there’s no likes There’s no dopamine fix!' Al Capone looks into his mobile phone, His image reflects, he laments ‘This is where the party’s at...' Taking back his party hat From his pet Siamese cat, Stretching out his braces He parades his flat and sings… ‘I’m a real slow soaker A Leisurely lush A dipsomaniacal Pentium slug’ ‘Drunk is defunct Capone, Drunk is defunct!’ How do you like that?' Sings his pet Siamese cat.
