Declan Gunn - The Thing About Drinking

Nothing like a drink.
I should know.
Ask those filthy guys on the high street
who scream obscenities at the sky,
they know too.
If drink can keep them happy
in the state they're in
then it must be great.

Aah, booze.
You've got to love it.
I wouldn't give it up
for God's balls
and a nutcracker.

Declan Gunn
