"Drink Till We Die"
by Michael Morse (c) 2011

Everybody knows the tale of how Patrick became a Saint
He drove the snakes out of Ireland, now the people celebrate
But the snakes are coming back my friend with revenge in their eyes
It seems there's nothing left to do but drink until we die

Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die
The snakes have returned and we won't get out alive
Let the whiskey flow, commit a joyful suicide
and drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die

The pipes, the pipes are crawling with fierce bloodthirsty snakes
So run out to your favorite pub and meet your favorite mates
To-Ra-Loo-Ra-Loo-Ra sing one last lullaby
Grab a pint of Guinness and drink it till you die

Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die
The snakes have returned and we won't get out alive
Let the whiskey flow, commit a joyful suicide
and drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die

They're coming for your babies,they're coming for your wife
They'll be here soon to eat you up and take away your life
Tell your ma you love her, kiss your sweetheart goodbye
There's plenty of whiskey in the jar so drink until you die

Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die
The snakes have returned and we won't get out alive
Let the whiskey flow, commit a joyful suicide
and drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die

From Cork on up to Belfast and every dirty old town between
The serpents are a-feasting but no one feels a thing
Not a single tear was shed, there was not a single cry
For everyone was already dead, they drank until they died

Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die
The snakes have returned and we won't get out alive
Let the whiskey flow, commit a joyful suicide
and drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die

Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die
The snakes have returned and we won't get out alive
Let the whiskey flow, commit a joyful suicide
and drink, drink, drink, drink, drink till we die
Drink till we die
Drink till we die
