At the dive bar, Noise, somewhere downtown…

Caid: *hits the last slide in the PowerPoint presentation* “Okay, that’s it! Somebody hit the lights.”

--Lights blaze back on, guys blink owlishly—

Danny: “Well, that was educational…and more than a little bit disturbing.”

Caid: “Just wanted to make sure you were adequately prepared for your wedding night. Tell Can no thanks are necessary.”

Danny: “Uh, yeah. If I try any of those on Can our first time ‘round, it’ll put her off sex for the rest of our lives. Where did y’all get these tips, anyway? Especially number seven? That one’s raunchy even for me.”

Dane: “We asked all the guys coming tonight to submit one. Then Caid and Z put the presentation together.”

Danny: “Okay, so who submitted seven?”

Caid: “Dunno. They were sent in anonymously. We figured the guys would feel less inhibited that way.”

Danny (loudly): “Someone wanna own up to seven? I need more details on how it works without busting out your teeth.”

**Several Moments of Silence**

Danny: “Aw, come on, you bunch of sexual deviants! Own up.” *meanders off, intending to needle guests individually*

Dane: “Caid, do you really not know who sent in what?”

Caid: *shrugs* “I know some, including number seven.”

Dane (incredulously): “Was that one yours?”

Caid: “Nope, but let’s just say sexual proclivities can run in families, right? The Monroe boys like to get buck.”

Dane: “No effin’ way! It was Luke’s.”

Lukas: *walks up* “What was Luke’s?”

Dane: “Number-bloody-seven!”

Lukas: *grins* “I thought they were supposed to be anonymous.”

Caid: “Recognized your handwriting from the autographed book Dan got me for Christmas last year.”

Lukas: “Yeah. I forgot about that. Well, I don’t really care if people know it was mine. I’ll let Dan sweat it out a while, and then I’ll clue him in.”

Dane: “So…how do you do it without busting out your teeth?”

Lukas (deadpan): “Practice. Lots and lots of practice.”

Woke up to that familiar feeling
Staring at an unfamiliar ceiling
Still got your jeans on but you're topless
Headache and the stomach feels nauseous
Grab your shirt off the bedroom floor
And trying to recollect the night before
How'd you get from the bar to this mattress?
And when you got here then what happened?
And where's the who that lives here?
In this house you wanna figure out how'd you get here
But the thought got cut by nature
Find the bathroom the gut got anger
Here it comes can't avoid it
Ain't the first time throwin' up in a strange toilet
Anyone else would leave but you?
You crawl back to the bed and fell back asleep

All we need is because
So come and party with us
Take care of you when you're passed out
Right there with you in your glasshouse

Woke up all alone with no friends
But you had to throw up again
Choke up the tears and the spit
Grab some tissue to wipe off your lips
And everything still spins
And then the chills begin
And the god please kill me right now hits
And you still don't know whos house this is
In between leftover dry heaves
You try to check out your timepiece
And you should call your job
But first gotta turn this hangover off
You dream that it's just a dream
Until the phone in your pocket starts to scream
Shut it down don't wanna hear a sound
Heavy is the head that wears that crown now

All we need is because
So come and party with us
Take care of you when you're passed out
Right there with you in your glasshouse

Hangover ain't a strong enough word
It don't describe what just occured
Lookin' at a phone full of missed calls
Probably all the people that you pissed off
Everything seems so sour
So you force yourself into the shower
Standin' up brings out the stars
And the whole bathroom smells just like a dive bar
Can't do it better sit
And let the tub be the catcher's mitt
Lay down face down
Thank god whoever lives here ain't around
Now what you need is silence
And you don't want no one to see you like this
Maybe you don't recognize it
But this is your home this is where your life lives

All we need is because
So come and party with us
Take care of you when you're passed out
Right here with you in your glasshouse
