A Drinking Song

[00:00:13] A Drinking Song

[00:00:16] Back at the house a bottle is found

[00:00:20] And opened in honour of those who have drowned

[00:00:24] While we who have not are stricken with guilt

[00:00:28] And dutifully see that not one drop is spilt

[00:00:32] We're drinking to life we're drinking to death

[00:00:36] We're drinking 'till none of our livers are left

[00:00:40] We're winding our way down to the spirit store

[00:00:44] We'll drink 'till we just can't drink any more

[00:00:51] Raise your glasses high

[00:00:59] Drink the cellar dry

[00:01:11] Well bloody my nose and blacken my eye

[00:01:15] If it ain't some young punk in search of a fight

[00:01:20] And shaunticles' chest is sagging with pride

[00:01:23] For honour has yet to be satisfied

[00:01:27] Well heaven be thanked we live in an age

[00:01:31] Where no man need bother except on the stage

[00:01:35] With dulce et decorum est pro patria mori

[00:01:39] And definitely not tonight

[00:01:43] I can still remember

[00:01:46] When I was just a kid

[00:01:50] I was free to do what I wanted to

[00:01:53] But never ever did

[00:01:58] And now with years of discretion reached may we not forget

[00:02:06] Liberte egalite fraternite

[00:02:09] For there's life in the old world yet

[00:02:12] There'll always be an england

[00:02:19] An ireland and our france

[00:02:28] A lichtenstein and finland

[00:02:36] For we have only one chance

[00:02:45] Then this young man with an unhealthy tan

[00:02:49] Puts a drink in my hand and says I understand

[00:02:53] You're in search of a place to continue the chase

[00:02:57] Of the heavenly taste I suggest in that case

[00:03:01] That you all come with me to my place by the sea

[00:03:05] Where the glasses shall be overflowing with free

[00:03:09] Alcoholic delights

[00:03:11] And free love if you like

[00:03:13] For what point has this life if you can't realise your dreams

[00:03:21] Raise your glasses high

[00:03:29] Drink the town dry

[00:03:33] We'll drink beyond the boundaries of sense

[00:03:37] We'll drink 'till we start to see lovely pink elephants

[00:03:41] Inside our heads inside our beds inside

[00:03:48] So don't shoot 'till you see the reds of our eyes

[00:03:53] And an army of elephants Marching behind

[00:03:57] From the night I was born 'till the day I will die

[00:04:01] All my lovers will be pink and elephantine
