Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

We come here every Friday to relieve ourselves from work

We gather here every Friday to escape from work.

Saturday it is done better than the night before

Saturday's revelry surpasses the previous night.

Let all hell break loose as we come to hit this town

We're ready to unleash chaos as we hit the town.

The paradise of binge drinking our pressure-cooker valve

This place is a paradise for binge drinking, our release valve from life's pressures.


We come here every Friday to relieve ourselves from work

Repeated: We gather here every Friday to escape from work.

Saturday it is done better than the night before

Repeated: Saturday's revelry surpasses the previous night.

Let all hell break loose as we come to hit this town

Repeated: We're ready to unleash chaos as we hit the town.

The paradise of binge drinking our pressure-cooker valve

Repeated: This place is a paradise for binge drinking, our release valve from life's pressures.


Forget about the troubles you deliberate all week

Forget the troubles of the week and debts that keep you awake.

Forget about the debts preventing you to get to sleep

Reflect on good times as the weight of age sets in.

Reminisce of good times, God, we're getting old

Raise a glass in tribute to the Holy Inebriate.

Raise your glass to the Holy Inebriate

Repeated: Forget the troubles of the week and debts that keep you awake.


The boozin' is needed

The act of drinking is a necessity.

The boozin' is needed

Repeated: The act of drinking is a necessity.

The boozin' is needed

(We) anticipate the illness, we can overlook the crimes

We expect illness but ignore crimes, embracing drunk behavior and welcoming idle minds.

(We) relish drunk behaviour and we welcome lazy minds

Repeated: We expect illness but ignore crimes, embracing drunk behavior and welcoming idle minds.

This is one we're proud of, our trusted friends

We take pride in our trusted friends, a remedy for troubles, beating them without weapons.

The opiate of trouble, watch us beat them back unarmed

Repeated: We take pride in our trusted friends, a remedy for troubles, beating them without weapons.


Embrace this drunken stupor, sup this poison 'till you drop

Indulge in a drunken stupor, consuming poison until you can't anymore.

Pour the forgetting liquor we will tell you when to stop

Pour the forgetting liquor; we dictate when to stop.

Now you've got the thirst there's not much you can do

Once the thirst is ignited, there's little control, but we've quelled your rebellion.

But just so you know, we've smothered your rebellion

Repeated: Once the thirst is ignited, there's little control, but we've quelled your rebellion.


The boozin' is needed

Repeated: The act of drinking is a necessity.

The boozin' is needed

The boozin' is needed

The walk home from the pub, perfect time for a drunken debate

The journey home from the pub is a perfect time for drunken debates.

Exaggeration of booze probably not my best friend

Exaggeration of alcohol may not be my best companion.

My room starts to turn, what's the point in all this?

The room spins, questioning the purpose of all this.

Rapid decay into mental abyss

Rapid descent into a mental abyss.

Will someone help me?

A plea for help.


(We) anticipate the illness, we can overlook the crimes

Repeated: We expect illness but ignore crimes, embracing drunk behavior and welcoming idle minds.

(We) relish drunk behaviour and we welcome lazy minds

Indulge in a drunken stupor, consuming poison until you can't anymore.

Pour the forgetting liquor we will tell you when to stop

Now you've got the thirst there's not much you can do

Once the thirst is ignited, there's little control, but we've quelled your rebellion.

But just so you know, we've smothered your rebellion

Repeated: Once the thirst is ignited, there's little control, but we've quelled your rebellion.
