To Drink

I drink and drink One may call it a bender I drink and drink Yet never forfeit I drink and drink But only when there's a true call for it Oh what oh what would be a true call they cry Why, not a truer call than death do I reply. I drink and drink Yet they do not revive I drink and drink Yet my kidneys do thrive Oh how I drink Only when death comes Do I truly oblige. Oh how I will drink and drink And drink again When nothing left flows Will I subside.
