Bruce's Philosophers Song

Bruce's Philosophers Song by Monty Python.

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable,
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy begger
Who could think you under the table,
David Hume could out-consume,
Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel.
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.
There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist.
Socrates himself was permanently pissed.
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say could stick it away,
Half a crate of whiskey everyday.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And René DesCartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am."
Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed,
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed.

Boss job, Bruce.

But arn't you forgetting rule 6?

[Tricycloplots]

Forgot about that rule, best read off the rules again to avoid that mistake:

Rule one - no pooftahs.

Rule two, no member of the faculty is to maltreat the Abbos in any way whatsoever - if there's anybody watching.

Rule three - no pooftahs.

Rule four - I don't want to catch anyone not drinking in their room after lights out.

Rule five - no pooftahs.

Rule six - there is no rule six!

Rule seven - no pooftahs.

That concludes the reading of the rules, Bruce.

@Zuwie3 guess it depends on weather you're watching the hollywood bowl or listening to the cd/record recorded version... But yeah, small details and lyrical variations....
