Keywords: song

A while back there were a few funny songs posted, and now I present this
one...


Alcoholics' Anthem
Tune: "Men of Harlech"
From: Christchurch [N.Z.] University Revue


What's the use of drinking tea
Indulging in sobriety
And tee-total per-ver-sity
It's healthier to booze.
What's the use of milk and water,
These are drinks that never oughter
Be allowed in any quarter;
Come on, lose your blues.

Mix yourself a Shandy!
Drown yourself in Brandy!
Sherry sweet,
Or Whisky neat,
Or any kind of liquor that is handy.
There's no blinking sense in drinking
Anything that doesn't make you stinking!
There's no happiness like sinking
Blotto to the Floor!

Put an end to all Frustration,
Drinking may be your Salvation,
End it all in dissipation
Rotten to the core!
Aberrations metabolic,
Ceilings that are hyberbolic,
These are for the Alcoholic
Lying on the Floor!

Vodka for the Arty,
Gin to make you Hearty,
Lemonade was only made
For drinking if your mother's at the Party.
Steer clear of home-made beer,
And anything that isn't labelled clear,
There is nothing else to fear
Bottoms up - My Boys.
