House Party ('09).

Started out with a banister, that shirt,

Twelve hour shift, continue.

A basement, a shower cubicle,

One toilet, five girls,

Three of us times nine bottles.

Boys like dogs on their hind legs,

You were good and sat.

Distinct feeling I knew you, didn't, got to.

Kitchen full of unknowns to cook.

Out of so many a face, only chose one each.

Started out with a banister, that shirt,

Swapped our bottles for each other's.

Walked away, felt like I'd know you for years.

Eyes followed each other's backsides up the stairs

Five minutes later, we're side by side

Not to be separated, except by the sirens.

Nice snapshot memory here, Georgina... 'Boys like dogs on their hind legs' is my favourite line but I like the full piece, as it only tells us part of the story and leaves it to the rest of us to fill in the blanks.. top one!
