"a very large proportion of domestic violence is committed by people who have been drinking.."

And eating... and breathing. Heck, let's outlaw 'em all.

Blame the criminal.

Heavy drinking and hard liquor are still the norm among elders of some of the old, aristocratic cities of America. It is often assumed that if one has sufficient means, alcohol addiction is of no particular consequence. This is shocking to health conscious younger generations.

Well, I can confirm
my thinking is not too clear
after I kick back

and eat a whole box
of Zingers in one sitting . . .

We never eat cookies because they have yeast

The least taste of which turns a man to a beast.

Oh can you imagine the dreadful disgrace

Of a man in the gutter with crumbs on his face?

We never eat fruitcake because it has rum,

The least bit of which turns a man to a bum.

Oh can you imagine the terrible sight

Of a man eating fruitcake until he gets tight.

(Refrain)

We must get rid of rum by gum

Rum by gum

Rum by gum

We must get rid of rum by gum

Rum by gum

Rum
