A bad night at the bridge club (verses 1 and 2)
I'm giving up bridge--tonight's my last night.
It's amen to Stayman, I give up the fight.
The insults and muddles are giving me troubles
and I can't sleep at night for thinking of doubles.
 
My cards are all rotten and I have forgotten
who's played and what's trumps and what's gone on my right!
So for now it's all over--I'm off to the backwood :
I'm bidding goodbye to Gerber and Blackwood.

For verses three and four, try here.
