Drinker Beware, Drinker Beware
Of all the things to dream about
To think of what was before
Youth, the young, false amour
Drinker Beware, Drinker Beware
This fountain; a delightful curse
How to be evergreen and
still overjoyed of Halloween
Caveat Imbiber, Caveat Imbiber
You dated, prehistoric bat,
You think to yourself.
Decrepit and on the shelf
Caveat Imbiber, Caveat Imbiber
Your sallow elephant skin, gaunt
Your cadaverous hands creak into the water
Sudden energy, afflux into your hands
Drinker Beware, Drinker Beware
Your hands reach to your mouth
No more of these dealings
As the cool substance flows down your throat
Instant Regret;
