MAN WITH THE HIP FLASK (C2H5OH)

(dialogue from Barfly (1987))

his only ambition was a different kind of mission
was no smallprint, wun't nuclear fission
aspired to get higher, just desired to get wired
thinked of picnics with a Park Street flyer girl
hiccups came with the territory, as did some women
he dun't care for the fairy story, had whisky with him
alkonol disclaimers, he can't promise nothing
but he'll write it on his hand and he'll maybe pull of summin'

C2H5OH

haggled on the price, drunk it out his hip flask
snakeskin, makes him, travel in a zig zag
all dutch courage, and down with any big task
find him in a strange place, hid behind his fox mask
tipsy beats and techniques, a dishevelled mish mash
the man worked fast, spat out tracks, like bish bash (bosh)
his pinkie pointing up as he tips it back to sip that
stripped down to his cacks, and going for a splish splash
end up in the river, end up in the canal
fished out by paramedics, or kind porn actresses
yeah something 'bout the water just made him wanna swim
rats piss and glass bits din't register with him

volume real high, head light on Red Stripe
liked to get high, only just shy of bed time
next morning, his swede hurt like hell, and he said "Christ..."
bad as a Road Rash bash by a lead pipe
acute pain like when sliced by a pen knife
drank lemon iced tea 'til he'd get his loaf'a bread right
contains oxytocins or summat, makes you less shite
his Jedi mind ripe for conversion to the dark side
sped by with one headlight, ignoring warning red lights
Scotch killed his appetite, weekends he never ate right
man was enticed, necked wine to a deadline
was refined as a West Country city centre hen night
what a mess... nice... better get a wet wipe
like a feline makes a gift outta dead mice
like Mike Stipe said, "that's me in the spot light"
on his dutch courage cuz he's painfully dead shy

man, i crave it, brave it, and i rave it with a skinful
according to Father Christopher, the alkonol ain't sinful
unless you read the Koran, then you're far from Allah
but if you're disbeliever, and then it's bars for a laugh
wipe the blackboard clean, and even do the smudgy bits
hit a Spoons on the cheap, and bring your scummy buddies with
breach the peace, unleash the beast, & take him for a wander
ease your swede & crease your cheeks, & make your heart grow fonder

headrush from a splee, and a chunk'a dirty vodka (£7.99...)
special offer in your local but only cuz he knows ya
it's not big or clever, son, but it is pretty fun
drink responsibly... yeah... gonna do that, hun'
alkonol, ethanol, car fuel, person fuel
solvent that solves all, a cool, raw material
Beer Street and Gin Lane, consumed for millennia
aged for 8 years, just to end up in the gutter, yeah
a preservative that makes you forget
surgical spirits operate help make you mend
costs £13 bill' a year in crime and disorder
contributes £14.6 to tax revenues, so there
