If you could have a drink with anybody, dead or alive
Fictional or non-fictional
Who would you have a drink with?
Well, that's a question asked to me by a friend of mine
While making conversation on a long drive
I didn't think about it, I just gave the answer quick
I dunno, maybe Taylor Swift?
He said he'd think that he would like to have a drink with Tom Waits
And instantly I wondered if I'd made a mistake
Shit, fuck, wait, hang on, can I change my choice?
In fact I think I'd like to have a drink with Bill Hicks
But we both know he's dead and Tom Waits doesn't drink these days
And why are we speaking hypothetically anyway?
'Cause Flavor Flav always said don't believe the hype
Celebrity can be our integrity tonight
I'd like to have a pint with John Lennon
A pint of John Smith's with Bruce Springsteen
Noam Chomsky and Joey from Dawson's Creek
Jennifer Egan, Tyler Durden and Kate Tempest
Tom Robbins, Todd Snider and Conor Oberst
Now don't you even think about it, this round's on me
Noam'll have a bit of gin for a G and T
And hypothetically if we could choose the venue as well
I'd choose The Monarch in Camden Town
I'm more than just a regular, I'm there like every day
I really like the bar staff and that old arcade
I can't wait to see the look on Mark the manager's face
When Bruce comes in and asks for a drink
Or maybe we could get him to do a few tunes
And while we're at it let's invite some other friends along
I'd like to have a drink with Jack White
A shot of Jack Daniels with Jan Baxter
Chas and Dave and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Russell Brand, Adam Curtis and Muhammad Ali
Well I'm pretty sure that he's teetotal
But he could join us for a cup of tea
Well now the party's getting started, Bruce is on guitar
Kate is on the microphone and Dave is on the drums
Hypothetically the party is in full swing
Michelangelo is getting the pizzas in
