I SPILL MOST OF IT

 

Father became a drinker when an early teen

And he’s a drunk now and the years in between

In his time, he has consumed every type of beverage

From meths to home brew resembling raw sewerage

He has helped many a publicans’ child through public school

He has also funded publican’s holidays like a fool

If he’d studied boozing at uni he’d have got his blue

But they didn’t do a degree course in drinking special brew

Except for the DT’s and the raging hangovers

Heart disease, cirrhosis, kidney failure and ulcers

He seems not to have been affected too seriously

Though he never buys drinks for friends when in company
