Lyrics
I'll paly bacchus for the evening Pray, be seated, take your places Should my manna seem displeasing Offend your airs and graces I've a list long as your arm (The connoisseur's selection) Such bitter whines -a quaff of qualms Awaiting your inspections
The bubbles burst - this aint sham-pain I've watched hopes wither on the vine The fruits of labours toiled in vain I reap soul-grapes at harvest time
Anno 1999 - a classic year for vintage whine
[Chorus :]
Since it's drawn - I must sup the cellarage of sorrow Yet fate refills my tarnished cup each time I drain the dregs Their poison cannot kill me - new strength from it I 'll borrow My maudlin is a caudle that would fill a thousand kegs
Here's one for the road - afore ye go Drink deep sweet lads and lasses Those blighted crops you gladly sow Shall one day fill your glasses Brood for decades - pure hate distilled Then bottled up much longer Revenge - a draught I'll serve you chilled When time has made it stronger
Non-cordial - it's bile bouquet Laments ferment the patience schnapps Cask full of mulled futile dismay My well-aged-rage - you 've turned the taps
Anno 1999 - a classic year for vintage whine
[Chorus :]
Since it's drawn - I must sup the cellarage of sorrow Yet fate refills my tarnished cup each time I drain the dregs Their poison cannot kill me - new strength from it I 'll borrow My maudlin is a caudle that would fill a thousand kegs
Anno 1999 - a classic year for vintage whine
