Toast

As I raised my glass to give a toast I nod my head and give tribute to my host Giving my expression of honor and goodwill Now my duties for this evening I did fulfill Everyone stands and they raise their glass In that one moment our host is in a different class We drink to him and then we all applaud But in my opinion this sentiment is just a fraud We all showed up for the free drinks and free food And a night to dress up so we all can be viewed While others stood to give salutations and a cheer I congratulate my host for the free food and the beer.
