Lyrics - The Philosophers Song by Monty Python

The
Philosopher's
Song (
Monty
Python)
Immanuel
Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger,
Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think 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.
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 whiskey every day.
Aristotle,
Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And
Rene
Descartes was a drunken fart:"
I drink, therefore
I am"
Yes,
Socrates, himself, is particularly missed;
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed!filename[
