On bottles and tins for us to see
Warnings clearly on display

Make you think, like as not
That you are whispering when you are not

On bottles and tins for us to see
Warnings clearly on display
That the consumption of alcohol may
When you don’t know how many you’ve had
Lead to you dance like your Dad

On bottles and tins for us to see
Warnings clearly on display

Cause you to tell your friends again
And again that you love them

New health warnings should be
On bottles and tins for us to see
Warnings clearly on display

Lead to behaviour quite amusing
And cause you to think that you can sing

WARNING TO DRINKERS # 5

New health warnings should be
On bottles and tins for us to see
Warnings clearly on display
That the consumption of alcohol may
Cause the dedicated revellers
To believe that their ex-lovers
Want you to telephone them
Even though its 4 am
