There is a cloud stuck to the outside of my bathroom window.
Every time I go to philosophy class, this song is in my head. Every single time.
Immanual Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger , Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out consume
Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.
There's nothing Nietzsche 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 whisky every day.
Aristotle , Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle.
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And Rene 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.
