Lyrics
Started out, just drinking beer
I didn't know how or why
Or what I was doing there
Just a couple more
Made me feel a little better
Believe me when I tell you
It was nothing to do with the letter
I ran right out of beer
I took a look into the larder
No bones, nothing
I'd better go and get something harder
Back in a flash
I started on a dash of Jamaica rum
Me and Pat Malone
Drinking on our ow-ow-ow-own
Woh-hoh-oh, the nips are getting bigger
Woh-yeah, the nips are getting bigger
Wo-hoh-oh, the nips are getting bigger
Yeah-eah-eah, mmm they're getting bigger
Sometimes I wonder
What all these chemicals
Are doing to my brain
Doesn't worry me enough
To stop me from doing it agai-ai-ain
Wiping out brain cells
By the millions but I don't care
It doesn't worry me
Even though
I ain't got a lot to spare-are-are
Woh-hoh-oh, the nips are getting bigger
Woh-yeah-eah, the nips are getting bigger
Wo-hoh-oh, the nips are getting bigger
Yeah-eah-eah, they're getting bigger
[Mental As Anything]
