Kingdom of Drink

Welcome to the Kingdom of Drink
Magic liquids change the way you think
Over-the-counter medicine
To cure the state your head is in
And save you when you’re well beyond the brink
Welcome to the Kingdom of Drink
You’ve been here ten thousand times before
I saw how you waltzed right through that door
You’re quite at home here, obviously
So come and sit down next to me
And let’s explore the reasons why I think
You’ve returned to the Kingdom of Drink
Rum, tequilla, vodka, wine and gin
Each a soldier of your misfortune
They stand at attention behind the bar
And for your peace of mind they’ll go to war
To liberate your soul before it sinks
Salute the flag in the Kingdom of Drink
London, San Francisco, New York, Rome
Every dive you visit feels like home
And Saudi Arabia’s very tough
But you can find a Guinness if you look hard enough
Just follow the Christians, they have that certain stink
Get baptized in the Kingdom of Drink
The world is overrated, why take part?
It’s gone straight to Hell in a shopping cart
It’s easier to disappear
And when you do, you’ll find me here
I’m grooving to the broken glass’s clink
Holding court in the Kingdom of Drink
