I fell down an alco-hole and descended into alco-hell
My friends could not understand me, they couldn't tolerate the smell
The barmaid refused to serve me, she declined to sell
Encyclopedia is a word I cannot spell
J2O's were the way to go until I fell off the wagon
Jack Daniels in one hand, Um Bongo in another
A disaster waiting to happen
My dependancy was a sight to see - an act of desperation
Financially it crippled me
This double-dip recession
Alco-hell, alco-hell
Alco-help me I'm in alco-hell
Alco-hell, alco-hell
Help me out
I was caught snorting Baby-cham
Through a straw stuck up my nose
Rehabilitation was the only answer to my woes
I spent too much time in a room with Gazza who picked his toes
That is all that it took to change me
Sobriety is the route that I chose
J2O's were the way to go no more falling off the wagon
Ribena in one hand, Um Bongo in the other
A disaster will never happen
My dependancy had been a sight to see - an act of desperation
Financially it crippled me
But now I'm guaranteed a pension
Release notes:
All words & music by Bri Jnr. & Tico Jnr.
Bri not 'arf excitedly tells us:
One of my favourite self-composed guitar riffs to date lays the foundations for a not so favourite period of my life- the dark days of my excessive J20 and Um Bongo consumption. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Tico for supporting me through my rehabilitation and I am now in a much better place, you could even call it 'Alco-Heaven'.
So this ditty is hard for me to listen to but it documents a worthwhile journey. I hope it inspires at least one of you to turn your life around- just like Mr Greensocks inspired me to do so.
Tico, while swigging scotch:
Despite being addicted to meth, heroine, and a frequent dabbler in online gambling, Bri purports soft drink consumpion as the bane of his life. While enjoying a very cold lager, I gave what support I could. Almost seen as rehab, we got together and penned this 'journal' for Bri to be able to rid himself of the disease.
