And They Wonder Why I Drink


My daddy's locked up in the joint.
My mother's on the rag.
My sister is a streetwalker
who's living from a bag.
My cousin's name is Justin Thyme,
he's locked up in the 'stute.
And so's his brother, Justin Kace
this fact he'd soon refute.

My sister, Justine Ormous,
she's a burglar in DC.
And Justin Sayne, my uncle --
he sometimes thinks he's me.
My other uncle Justin Uff,
he's hanging with a gang.
And my aunt Jest (that's Shirley U.)
just stole a blue Mustang.

Justin Denial, my big bro,
is very much my friend!
Justin the nick of Thyme, he came,
with bottles full again!
And people wonder why I drink
and drown out all my cares--
when Justin Nate, my other cousin
stole our MS shares!

That stock today could make us rich!
(Well, Bill is rich as hell!).
But Justin Kace you didn't know,
he first stole then said, "Sell!"
Within a day, that Justin Nate
sold out our second chance!
And then my uncle, Justin Trude,
refused to take a stance!

See, Justin Trude, he was a judge
elected by the state.
But he eloped and disappeared--
t'was too much on his plate.
"Our family's too dysfunctional",
my uncle Justin said.
And then he ran off with this whore
and landed Justin Bed.

They say to be Anonymous
would help my mind to think
of why I have decided that
I have to take a drink!
Well, here and now, I'm telling you
I think that they are blind!
They just don't know no families
that are the Justin kind.

They call us Justins horrible...
a screwed up, awful bunch.
And then they wonder why I drink....
I'm drinking them for lunch!

I see you're Justin Ebriated
Not Justin Thyme these days
I can no more enable you
That's gest what Shirley says

I've tried and tried to pull you out
The gutter is your home.
You'd rather carry a brown bag
That's full of Sutterholm.

You're hanging with Jack Daniels now
And Johnny Walker Red.
Imbibe all night - then in the morn
You can't get out of bed!!

You wake up in the afternoon
And have another drink..
And if those other two are gone
You put up quite a stink!

I shall not do this any more
I'm gonna play with Hoot
From this day forth you heed my word
You're locked up in the 'stute!!

This simply has been Justine Uff!!

This is Justin Credible
that you're talking 'bout us.
Justin Ebriated, you're a derelict!
Get back on the bus!

And Happy Thanksgiving to your side of the clan,
but frankly I'm sick of your ranting, man!
You're a derilict, Justin!
So keep your mouth shut,
or Auntie Justine will go kick your butt!

I think I know that Justin dude
We've tipped a few together
But only when we're thirsty
Or a little under the weather

Or when it gets too hot out
Or the snow is getting deep
Moderate temperatures might do it too
It helps us get to sleep

If the sun is shining brightly
Or the sky is full of clouds
It's not like we drink all the time
For crying out loud

And we're really quite selective
We drink only certain brands
Which would be in our case
What comes in a bottle or can .

Hey Justin's your relative Justin Consistant has enrolled you all in the community circus. Sounds like it's right up your alley, maybe will get some peace and quiet for a spell around here.

Hey, guys! I'm back! Been gone a while.
But here I am again.
I'm Justin Toxicated, see.
They finally let me in!
My cousin, Justin Ebriated,
wrote this little song?
I didn't know that he could type...
he's been smashed way too long.

How can he find the keyboard
and how can he find the mouse?
My cousin's Justin Idiot!
How can he type when soused?
Perhaps this song was written
by another Justin dude...
'cause Justin Ebriated, man,
don't even eat no food!

He drinks from Thyme the sun comes up
and then he drinks his lunch.
And after lunch, he tips a few
before he drinks his brunch.
And then ol' Justin Ebriated
takes a little snooze.
And when he wakes at half past five,
he sips a little booze.

At seven, he is feeling fine
but thirsty as can be.
He finds the phone that's hiding
underneath the old TV.
And then he calls me up to say,
"Jushtin, whatsh ya shay?
Come over, ship shome wine wish me
and letsh shtay out and play."

By this Thyme, I'm a little looped
and don't think I can drive.
I tell my cousin Justin
that I'd rather stay alive.
Well, Justin Ebriated thinks
he smart and bright, you see!
He tells me this, I kid you not,
"You're Jusht ash shober ash me!"

I laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh
until I have to pee!
My cousin Justin Ebriated
is sober just like me!!!


hahahahahahahaha

Beri Nyce, yes, I am sugar and spice
Combined just right, I can be quite nice. But push me to the spicy side,
And I can give you quite a ride.
Beri Joose, to make me loose?
Hmm, I don't know if this is something I should refuse...
Heehee. Keep it up, I'm quite enjoying this... LOL.

Thankyou kindly Dr Moose - does your diploma in doctoring include perhaps aiding me with my small problem? Justin was unavailable unfortunately, so you must help me! Anything else would be...Justin sensitive!

Severn ,
Unfotunately , the only license they would trust me with was poetic ( and I had to forge that ).

Beri ,

You are getting Beri sleepy
Things just don't compute
To understand completely
You must join us in the 'stute'

Beri soon you'll come to understand
What it's all about
But 'till then be Beri careful
They just might not let you out

Oh, Beri beri sleepy am I
Take me, take me, take me away
I knew there was a reason why
Lately I was feeling more than okay
Too much drinking with the Justins on the sly
Has made me so happy and gay

To the 'stute I must go
To join you all in fun
I'll be there soon, so so so
Wait for me and soon I'll see you hons!!
