Bewail gutless German chap getting under the table (6)
I believe the answer is:
blotto
'under the table' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'bewail gutless german chap getting' is the wordplay.
'gutless' means to remove the middle letters.
'german chap' becomes 'otto' (common German name).
'getting' says to put letters next to each other.
'bewail' with its middle taken out is 'bl'.
'bl'+'otto'='BLOTTO'
(Other definitions for blotto that I've seen before include "Wasted" , "Get very drunk" , "To bolt away in drunk state" , "Unconscious from drink" , "Bombed" .)
