The Lyrics

I'm a boozer,
I'm a boozer:
Redeye, grog, rum, rye, ale, beer, brew, mead.

So many toasts down my throat I have tossed,
My wallet can no longer bear the cost.
I have swirled cocktails by millions, my friend.
It's not my knees but my elbow I bend.

I'm a boozer;
I drink lots; it means good cheer indeed.
I'm a boozer:
Redeye, Scotch, punch, SKY, ale, beer, Goose, mead.

Not slow I quaff, so pass me one more round.
A black and tan, man, is grand--amber-brown.
My beers I'm hauling to below my eyes;
I sip then slurp up this 19-ounce size.

I'm a boozer,
I drink lots, until I am three sheets:
I'm a boozer:
Redeye, cognac, SKY, pales, aquavits.

Some 151 rum for me awaits;
I'll cease only when my rum fund abates.
I soak up booze till I tremble and fall.
When well drinks shut off. . .methyl alcohol.

I'm a boozer,
But I've lost sum funds, now penury.
I'm a boozer:
Sterno cocktails now the blend fer me.

I'll drink to this fine 55.5 vol-% parody.

"Redeye, grog, rum, rye, ale, beer, brew, mead" ... Hey, Stuart -- that's an example of why John Barry is the undisputed master of syllable-matching -- I'm simply following in his masterful syllable-matching footsteps!

I wish I'd thought of this one. Wait a minute, I did, but it was a "George W. Bash."

Thanks, Ravyn, JD (for my money, Alvin Rhodes wears the matching mantel), Michael, Yoidy, TJC (where have you been keeping yourself?).

I've had a similar idea on my parody to-do list but this was so well done I'm cancelling that plan. Maybe I'll do "I'm a shmoozer" instead. 5 shots of Glenlevet!

The pacing isn't 100% spot on, but I think it's done to comic effect, in the same vein as Tom Lehrer.
