I do my best not to judge because, I’m far from perfect – with many shortcomings, and very much a work in progress. However something has got to be said about the drinking in our society.
Each time I go out on a night in the town, my heart breaks because the amounts of alcohol consumed by many young people. The effects of young girls so wasted that they have to be carried home; the fear when some are driving home under heavy influence of alcohol; young wives/husbands/boyfriends/girlfriends carrying their partners home; the staggering and small talk, really mumbling; girls throwing themselves to any guy and being tossed around – you name it, alcohol brings it out. It’s one of the saddest things to watch. Brings the lyrics to this song to life – All I can say is God help us know when to stop destroying our lives.
Alcohol – Brad Paisley
I can make anybody pretty
I can make you believe any lie
I can make you pick a fight
With somebody twice your size
I been known to cause a few break ups
I been known to cause a few births
I can make you new friends
Or get you fired from Work
Lynchburg and Bordeaux France
Been making the bars lots of big money
And helping white people dance
I got you in trouble in high school
But college, now that was a ball
You had some of the best times
You’ll never remember with me
Alcohol
Alcohol
I got blamed at your wedding reception
For your best man’s embarrassing speech
And also for those
Naked pictures of you at the beach
I’ve influenced kings and world leaders
I helped Hemmingway write like he did
And I’ll bet you a drink or two that I can make you
Put that lampshade on your head
Lynchburg and Bordeaux France
Been making a fool out of folks just like you
And helping white people dance
I’m medicine and I am poison
I can help you up or make you fall
You had some of the best times
You’ll never remember with me
Alcohol
Alcohol
Alcohol is robbing many of the chance to fully enjoy and learn from the things life brings because they are busy getting drunk!
