elvis costello - a drunken man's praise of sobriety lyrics

come swish around, my pretty punk
and keep me dancing still
that i may stay a sober man
although i drink my fill

sobriety is a jewel
that i do much adore;
and therefore keep me dancing
though drunkards lie and snore
o mind your feet, o mind your feet
keep dancing like a wave
and under every dancer
a dead man in his grave
no ups and downs, my pretty
a mermaid, not a punk;
a drunkard is a dead man
and all dead men are drunk
