Parading Past my Porch

I did it once more with my eyes open
Letting the ladies parade past my porch
Mates wanted to start pushing their buttons
I told them whistle songs and carry a torch

“Shipmates”, saying it with authority
Looking sober first may change priorities
Hopefully you’ll see and change your sway
This translucent world won’t shut down today
