Alcohol
We all like to have a drink
Some of us like plenty
Some of us can stop at one
Some drink the bottle empty
I have friends who like a drink
But they can take or leave it
It's horrible what drink can do
Believe me, I have seen it
It slowly eats away at you
It takes you bit by bit
Your body knows it needs a drink
And you know you can't quit
When alcohol has got a grip
It's so hard to control
First it takes your livelihood
Then it takes your soul
It's evil it don't give a damn
It just want's you to drink
Next time you have one in your hand
Just stop my friend, and THINK.
