Daughter larks around, awfully sozzled (5,2,1,4)
I believe the answer is:
drunk as a lord
'sozzled' is the definition.
(I know that sozzled can be written as drunk as a lord)
'daughter larks around awfully' is the wordplay.
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'awfully' indicates an anagram.
'larks'+'around'='larksaround'
'larksaround' is an anagram of 'runkasalord'.
'd'+'runkasalord'='DRUNK AS A LORD'
(Other definitions for drunk as a lord that I've seen before include "Uncommonly intoxicated" , "Highly intoxicated" , "Very inebriated" .)
