Tankard - Commandments Lyrics


Moral law ! The drinker’s guide

Was handed down by god

Sacred law for man to follow

Revere them as your own

Life’s too short to waste your brew

It’s plain to see – obey the rules !

REFRAIN:

Thou shalt not waste and thou shalt not spill

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Thou shalt not puke ‘cause there’s no excuse

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Mankind was long deprived

Of the rules encased in stone

Ten written, the rest were lost

When will they be found ?

Laws misplaced for centuries

Where can they be ? The brewery !

REFRAIN:

Thou shalt not waste and thou shalt not spill

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Thou shalt not puke ‘cause there’s no excuse

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Rejoice ! The time is now

Fulfill your sacred vows

Pay heed to the blessed stone

Respect the holy law

Life’s too short to waste your brew

It’s plain to see – obey the rules !

REFRAIN:

Thou shalt not waste and thou shalt not spill

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Thou shalt not puke ‘cause there’s no excuse

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Moral law ! The drinker’s guide

Was handed down by god

Sacred law for man to follow

Revere them as your own

Laws misplaced for centuries

Where can they be ? The brewery !

REFRAIN:

Thou shalt not waste and thou shalt not spill

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Thou shalt not puke ‘cause there’s no excuse

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Thou shalt not waste and thou shalt not spill

Just drink your beer – Commandments

Thou shalt not puke ‘cause there’s no excuse

Just drink your beer – Commandments
