The Power Of Positive Drinking Lyrics


Lou Reed The Power Of Positive Drinking

Some like wine and some like hops
but what I really love is my scotch
It's the power, the power of positive drinking
Some people ruin their drinks with ice
and then they, they ask you for advice
They tell you, "I've never told anyone this before"
They say: "Candy is dandy but liquor makes quipsters."
and I don't like mixers, or sippers or sob sisters,
You know, you have to be real careful where you sit down
in a bar these days
And then some people drink to unleash their libidos
and other people drink to prop up their egos
It's my burdon, man, people say
I have the kind of face you can trust
The pow pow pow pow power of positive drinking X5
Some people say, alcohol makes you less lucid
and think that's true if you're kind of stupid
I'm not that kind that get's himself burned twice
And some say liquor kills the cells in your head
and for that matter so does getting out of bed
When I exit, I'll go out gracefully, shot in my hand
The pow pow pow pow power of positive drinking X5
