Alcholic Frolic

Rivers of alchol flowing through our cities,

Turning normal people into drunken Walter Mitties.

Nurses,teachers and doctors too,

Pouring their money down the loo.

George Osborne's finances from booze never fails,

With alchol tax from rising sales.

A million people every day,

 Depend on alchol to give them pay.

We live in a climate for growing hops,

Beer has always featured large in the shops.

Getting blasted at the weekend has been the British way,

To drown the stresses of the working day.

When I was young the taste of beer was unfriendly,

Now drinking alcopops is cool and trendy.

Encouraging alchol abuse at an early age,

Aquiring a taste for their favourite beverage.

If you're a man three units a day is fine,

Two pints of beer and your in line.

A lady whose body mass is less,

Three glasses of wine is ok I guess.

Moderation is the correct path to follow,

Regulating carefully how much alchol you swallow.

Lengthen your  life expectancy by ten years.

Three glasses of wine or a couple of beers.
