Give Me Whiskey and Give Me Death

I’m marching under flowing skirt of death

after smoking and drinking my existence away

        Whiskey, whiskers, whisked away

fateful initiation to my hastened demise.

Why, oh why, didn’t I take care of myself?

I will be sailing with the free spirits soon

        Whiskey, whiskers, whisked away

floating above, I’ll look down at my friends.

This note is to warn you that you won’t

still be here, I’m taking you with me

         Whiskey, whisker, whisked away

Together we’ll skim above our friends.

I’ve lost my appetite thinking of death -

But I could use a big shot of whiskey!
