As a school kid
It was cider first
Then as a student
Wine came second
Then as a worker
The vodka came third
But it doesn’t stop there
So have a care and beware
Out every night
Drinking trebles
Never slowing down
Even seeing double
They never slow down
Never have a single
But it doesn’t stop there
So have a care and beware
Before breakfast
One eye opener
Mid morning at the office
Two snifters in the loo
A liquid lunchtime
Three large ones do it
But it doesn’t stop there
So have a care and beware
The lost weekends
Come first
Then the tremours
Follow a close second
Cirrhosis of the liver
Takes its place in third
But it doesn’t stop there
So have a care and beware
I’m only a social drinker
The first denial
I can stop if I want too
The second denial
I’m in control of the drink
The third denial
But it doesn’t stop there
So have a care and beware
In a gutter covered in vomit
Not for the first time
Coming round in casualty
More than the second time
Surrounded by medics
No way back the third time
It stops there

Yeah, but it isn't a drug, is it? I'm very proud of how much I drink. I boast about it. I had fifteen pints last night, me. I went on holiday to abroad, dunno where exactly, to drink in the sun. I spent every day paralytic. It isn't like you're taking drugs or anything. It isn't a drug, it isn't a drug, it isn't a drug. La la la la la, I'm not listening.
Anyone got a spare liver?
