Looks like you thought of the twist as you came to the bridge but didn't go back to reread the context. Good idea ...needs a rewrite.

I ain't trying to impress some nights I drank to excess My buddies once dragged me home Dropped me in bed like a stone My baby showed me the door I ain't drinking beer anymore http://www.myspace.com/neilcotton http://upickedcotton.tripod.com/neil
