Just for fun:

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant 
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar 
Who could drink you under the table
David Hume could out-consume 
Schopenhauer and Hegel
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine 
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel

There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya 'bout the raising of the wrist
Socrates himself was permanently pissed

John Stuart Mill, of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato, they say, could stick it away
Half a crate of whisky every day
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his dram
And RenĂ© Descartes was a drunken fart: 
'I drink, therefore I am.'

Yet Socrates himself is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed!


Thank you Monty Python.
