Yes to Dee lite Prosecco...

Another one..

I went to a party at the local county jail
All the cons were dancing and the band began to wail

Early 70's

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear

80s

It's not, but all I can hear is elvis and jailhouse rock.

It's not monster mash, is it?
