There's nothin' Nietsche couldn't teach ya 'bout the raisin' of the wrist,
Socrates himself was permanently pissed.
John Stuart Mills of his own free will,
on half a pint of cider was particularly ill,
Plato, they say, could stick it away, half a crate of whisky every day,
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle and Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart 'I drink therefore I am!'
There's nothin' Nietsche couldn't teach ya 'bout the raisin' of the wrist,
Socrates himself is particularly missed - a lovely little thinker but a buggger when he's pissed!
Is this right? It's been years since I heard it - feel free to edit it anyone!
