Drink and Be Merry |
Drink and be merry, for tomorrow we may die |
It’s better to laugh than it is to cry |
My cup runneth over with blood and not wine |
The last was the flood, it’s fire this time |
I took a walk on the beach, no sand dunes just oil |
Dead gulls and dead fish were trod underfoot |
The sky was tinted with yellow and black |
And the air smelt like Dachou today |
The fields were littered with the dying and dead |
Nothing grows here but decay! |
The village bell tolls, a priest vomits blood |
Another life’s wasted away |
Down in the square, the party goes on The doomed sit down to their last feast |
They gorge themselves on the recently deceased |
The heat of the day, the foul smell of decay |
As they wait:. |
For the inferno to be UNLEASHED! |
So drink and be merry for tomorrow we may die |
It’s better to laugh than it is to cry |
Live for life’s sake, don’t let life pass you by There’s more worth living for than meets the eye |
So drink and be merry for tomorrow we may die! |
