I heard a rumor that an iconic American soft drink was crossing the pond. Here's hoping it's true. This is to be sung to the tune of the Mountain Dew Song (you can listen to Willie Nelson sing it
here).
I used to swig beer to ring in the New Year,
Now I croon auld lang syne with a brew
That makes me more frisky than Tennessee whisky—
All I drink is that sweet old Mountain Dew.
Some naysayers cry that the bright yellow dye
Will lower your sperm count to two,
And shrivel your sack, and turn your teeth black;
All slanders on sweet old Mountain Dew.
When I’m on my deathbed, pump my veins with Code Red—
Don’t bother calling Code Blue.
My worn-out old heart will fire up with a start
At a sip of that sweet old Mountain Dew.
So let us give thanks for that drink of the Yanks,
Full of caffeine and sugar and goo
You can’t even pronounce, in each fizzy ounce—
Three cheers for that sweet old Mountain Dew!
