Dry July
I have given myself a challenge
To not have a drink for the month of July
Though I know it is bon for my constitution
The stress and the strain make me cry
They have led me to fashion this most Belgian waltz
To inform you of how mad I am
I'm so angry that I want to smash this piano
In the manner of Jean-Claude Van Damme
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï-i a-a-a-a-a-a-aï aï aï
Well at first it was fine to avoid buying alcohol
When at the supermarché
But being offered a drink at a dinner party
Has a much greater difficulté
I feel awkward and strange when I order a Coke
Or a lemon & lime at a bar
But the worst is recording this album while sober
So everyone chante avec moi!
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï-i a-a-a-a-a-a-aï aï aï
Maybe, just maybe, I'm doing myself a good deed
Maybe, just maybe, not having a drink is valide
I'm more energetic, I'm much more alert
I'm far less pathetic, my head doesn't hurt
I think I now get it, I am a convert!
This life change is just what I need
But then I crack. I remember what fun
I derived from a bière or a bottle of vin
I see no earthly way to fight my DNA
At the end of the day, je suis néozélandais!
Aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï aï aï aï aï aï
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï aï aï aï aï aï
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Oh aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï aï
Aï-i a-a-a-a-a-a-aï aï aï
