Whisky

Scott Whitby, 2020


I've drank my fill of many drinks

All I really know about whisky

Is whisky on beer...never fear

But beer on whisky is mighty risky


Curious though about the fad

Is it barrel proof or small batch?

What does that even mean?

Does it mean something or is it just a catch?


Daddy drank Jack Daniels

Others liked Jim Beam

Who were they anyway?

Owned in Japan now it seems


Bananas on the nose

On the palate there's cherries

The finish tastes like leather

Seems like the stuff of fairies


Drink it with a splash of water

Or do you drink it neat?

What if I slightly notice

A fragrance like my feet?


At a bar she said "what will it be"

I wanted something real

Twenty dollars for some Pappy

Old Charter was the better deal


I bought a special whisky

Fifty dollars is what I spent

My friend Art never heard of it

Now I can't pay the rent


So what about this fancy whisky?

Spending money without fear

That's some whisky that's mighty risky

Be wise to stick with beer
