You're a lush, what a lush or I married a lush

Irish slang meaning getting absolutely off your face drunk, usually while Knacker drinking (on the nac)
Friend: Did you pull that beure last night?
Me: No she was too moudly, she started getting sick everywhere!
Friend: Are we heading to a pub tonight?
Underage Friend: No fuck that we'll go on the nac and get mouldy on the lush instead!
When something tastes really excellent.
Man: "Have you tried the grilled lamb chops"
Woman: "Oh my gosh, YES, they are Lipsmacking Lush!"
Lush life means a life of luxury with an exciting night life, a sophisticated outlook, and plenty of partying. It may have originated with the song Billy Strayhorn wrote for Duke Ellington's band in the 1930s in which he speaks of a weariness of "jazz and cocktails," and "women with sullen and sad grey faces" after a love affair has gone bad. That song, along with "Take The A Train," became classics for Ellington.
His lush life came to an end when he ran out of money and his friends ran out on him.
