Not my guest - Justin

Host:
Not my guest! Not my guest! Putting patience to the test.
Tie this rope around your neck, you fool, and I will do the rest
Drinks you spill, apps you horde
All your stories make us bored
Do please go home
Hostess:
Be judicious
Host:
Overruled now by the missus
You can’t sing. You can’t dance.
If an ally, you’d be France
Stop your staring at my neighbor’s daughter’s breasts
Go on, now take a glass
Then take a walk, you ass.
You’re not my guest!
Not my Guest!
NOT MY GUEST!
Host and party guests:
At charades, he can’t play
How we wish he wouldn’t stay
Host:
We’ll survive and persevere
With help from this cabernet
You lack class; you lack cheer
              You bring down the atmosphere
              While I hate to be complaining
               Nothing ‘bout you’s entertaining
              Not your jokes, not your tricks
               I’d smack you with a candlestick
Party Guests:
                A quick departure now would be your safest bet
                Let us refill our glass, and the knob hit your ass
                You’re not his guest
Host:
                Now I’m stressed
                It’s your leaving I suggest
Party Guests
                Not his guest! Not his guest! Not his guest!
Host:
                Your presence is unnerving
                Now it comes to dinner’s serving
                And we find an extra chair to sit upon
                Ah, those good old days when we enjoyed you
                Ah, but now those good old days are gone
                Ten years we’ve tolerated
                While your comeback we’ve awaited
                Hoping that you might regain some charm
                Most times we manage to ignore you
                But without invitation
                You walked in to our damnation
Hostess:
                Not a guest? Not a guest?
                Just an uninvited guest!
                Wine’s been poured and thank the Lord
                For he’s sure to be a test
                For dessert, we’ll have pie
                And with careful hand and eye
                I can squeeze another slice out
                If this vagrant doesn’t check out
                The chit-chat grows so cold
                Heaven’s sakes that joke was old
                Change the subject before everyone’s depressed
Party Guests:
                How much can we take?
Hostess:
                Wish we could catch a break
                From this our guest
Party Guests:
                Not your guest
Hostess:
                Yes my guest
Party Guests:
                Not his guest
                Not our guest! Not our guest!
                By your absence we’d be blessed
                We were fine before you brought your raincloud here
                You awful pest
                You’ve had food, you’ve had drink
                Now we wish away you’d slink
                While the candlelight’s still glowing
                Let us help you in your going
                Step by step, to the door
                Say “goodnight” you dreadful bore
                No more talk why can’t you give it all a rest?
                Please cease your mindless chatter
                You’ve made our nerves a tatter
                Not his guest!
                Not her guest!
                Not our guest!
                Please, leave you pest!
