From the recording Crashed Hard Drive Vol. 1
I was in a bar waiting in line to use the men's room, and there was a poster on the wall that said "Hemingway said always do sober the things you said you'd do when you were drunk. That way, you'd learn to keep your mouth shut". Well that sounded like a great idea for a song. I found another quote I liked, and used that. It's a short song; it says what it needs to say and it's over. I often use it for a public service announcement about drinking in moderation.
Lyrics
Hemingway Said
Hemingway said
“Always do sober
The things you said you’d do when you’re drunk”
Hemingway said “you’d learn to keep your mouth shut”
Hemingway said
“An intelligent man gets drunk to spend time with his fools”
I wonder how Hemingway knew I had friends like you
So pour another drink, have another shot
Bring another pitcher it’s only 12 o’clock
Sure, we could go back to work
But why not instead
Do what Hemingway said
