The Liquor and the Bun

THE LIQUOR AND THE BUN

Just one more then I'm done,

Said the liquor to the cream bun,

It’s been a great time, and great fun,

But I feel like I’m flagging,

So I guess I'll go on the wagon.

Just one more then I’m done,

Said the bun to the liquor,

You know when I’ve eaten it,

I will get over the urge even quicker,

In terms of life, it’s a flicker.

Don’t you fool yourself

You’re damaging your good health

It is only a matter of time

To hear the church bells chime.

I’ll just have one more,

You know the score,

Another one won’t hurt, I’m still alert,

Oh what a hand I’ve been dealt,

Now it’s affecting my good health.

Times have been great, the more I eat,

And the more I drank,

Brought me closer to the brink,

I know that I have to choose,

What I have now, and what I lose.

The drink said to the bun,

‘you’re not kidding anyone’,

Your health is shot,

You have lost the plot,

And you’re heading for gods oven.

The bun replied,

‘about all your lies,

Now you can quit, and get out of it,

To be honest your life is shot’.

The drink past away,

Way back in the day,

And the bun suffered a fatal demise.

So when it was over,

Ask why did they bother,

As too much of anything is unwise.

So, Don’t you fool yourself

You’re damaging your good health

It is only a matter of time

To hear the church bells chimes.
