A Drinking Song[00:00:13]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Raise your glasses high[00:00:51]

Drink the cellar dry[00:00:59]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

And definitely not tonight[00:01:39]

I can still remember[00:01:43]

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

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

But never ever did[00:01:53]

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

Liberte egalite fraternite[00:02:06]

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

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

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

A lichtenstein and finland[00:02:28]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Alcoholic delights[00:03:09]

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

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

Raise your glasses high[00:03:21]

Drink the town dry[00:03:29]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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