Drink to the Dead - Clutch

IF KNEE DEEP IN CATNIP AT THE OLD ICE BOX

I RECOMMEND YOU WHISTLE AND GIVE THE BOX THREE KNOCKS

SHOULD YOU BE SO LUCKY TO HEAR WHISPERING

IT IS AN INVITATION FOR YOU TO LEAP IN

MAY YOU GO MARCHING IN THREE-MEASURE TIME

DRESSED UP AS ASSES AND DRUNK TO THE NINES

SWING FROM THE RAFTERS SHOUTING THOSE SONGS

GONE UNSUNG FOR FAR TOO LONG

IF BOXING YOUR SHADOW AT THE WALL FULL OF MOSS

AND ANTLERS APPROACH YOU, THEN I AM AT A LOSS

MAY YOU GO MARCHING IN THREE-MEASURE TIME

DRESSED UP AS ASSES AND DRUNK TO THE NINES

SWING FROM THE RAFTERS SHOUTING THOSE SONGS

GONE UNSUNG FOR FAR TOO LONG

DRINK TO THE DEAD ALL YOU STILL ALIVE

WE SHALL JOIN THEM, IN GOOD TIME

SHOULD YOU GO CROSSING THAT SILVERY BROOK

IT’S BEST TO LEAP BEFORE YOU LOOK

IF SURROUNDED BY TOADSTOOLS AT THE OLD GREEN GLEN

I’M AFRAID THERE IS LITTLE THAT I CAN RECOMMEND

SAVE ALL OF YOUR COURAGE AND SINCERE PRAYER

AND WHERE YOU GO A' TREADING TAKE THE UTMOST CARE

DRINK TO THE DEAD ALL YOU STILL ALIVE

WE SHALL JOIN THEM, IN GOOD TIME

SHOULD YOU GO CROSSING THAT SILVERY BROOK

IT’S BEST TO LEAP BEFORE YOU LOOK

DRINK TO THE DEAD ALL YOU STILL ALIVE

WE SHALL JOIN THEM, IN GOOD TIME

SHOULD YOU GO CROSSING THAT SILVERY BROOK

IT’S BEST TO LEAP BEFORE YOU LOOK
