Have a Drink

My tongue is loosened by champagne
but I speak as I do everything 
for all the world to know

I do things in the open
while you do them secretly
do you deny that

Take a drink my friend
say what you have in your heart 
but you never drink
you never say !

Because you are afraid of what you have in your heart
