Think Of Something Else

Beenstock, I cannot understand
Why a thriving corn merchant like you
Spends so much of his time spreading the Devil's gospel!

Temperance is not the Devil's gospel, Hobson

It is to a man with a thirst!

Alcohol
A liquid which results from fermentation
The bottling which is Satan's occupation
Resulting in a user's degradation
Before you drink the drink
I beg you stop and think

Think!

Think of something else
Think of something else
Skip that drink and
Think of something else

Think of something else
Think of something else
Just forget that drink
And think of something else
(And think of something else)

Hank!
Think of something else, like - um -

Well, like, ah, shoes!

Oh, shoes!
(Shoes)
Shoes make me think of walkin'!
Walking makes me think of hiking!
Hiking makes me think of fields!
Fields make me think of clover
Clover makes me think of rain
Rain makes think of grain
Grain makes me think of -

Grain?
Aye, grain
Grain

Through the lips
Or the gums
Look out, liver, here it comes!

Alcohol
Before you drink the drink
I plead you stop and think

Think!
Think, think, think
Think, think, think of something else
Think of something else
Skip that drink and
Think of something else

Think of something else (just think of something else)
Think of something else (or so he says)
Skip that drink and (There must be something else)
Think of something else (That we can think about)

Think of something else (Just think of something else, something)
It isn't easy
Just forget that drink
And think of something else!

Think of something else
Like, um -
Well, now, let's see -
Well, let me help you, Mr. Beenstock!
Peaceful dreams?
Cheerful waking?
Waking without fingers shaking
Breaking fast on steady legs
Sausages and golden eggs
Homemade jams of which you boast
Marmalade to spread on toast

Toast?

Gentlemen: Her Majesty Queen Victoria!

To the queen!

Alcohol
A liquid which results in -
In relaxation
And brings about a man's
Emancipation
He pleads us not to drink
All right then, let us think
(All right then, let us think)
Really think!

Think of something else
Think of something else
Let's not drink and
Think of something else

Think of macking wives
Toes like butcher's knives
Sponging relatives
Woes a doctor gives

Debts and bills to pay
Till you laid away
When you start to think
That's when you need a drink

And when you have that drink
Your troubles start to shrink
And you begin to

Think of something else
Think of something else
Have a drink and
Think of something else

Think of something else
Think of something else (think of something else)
Have a drink and
Think of something else

Think of something else
Another drink
It's very easy
Have yourself a, have yourself a
Have yourself a, have yourself a drink
And think of something else!
