A night without alcohol's always fine
For getting things done, and saving money
Booze has the same drawbacks as heroin
Drugs slow thought and action, and are costly
So what attracts us to them so strongly
That not taking them takes so much effort?
They trap us physically and mentally
They're hard to justify by rational thought
They are a craving, they’re a dangerous sport
They make the dullest evening seem to shine
And then recede into sleep peacefully
The heart beats faster on its oars till port
Is reached, and the wild waves of tossing brine
Are calmed in deathly dark docks, finally
