Lyrics
Refrain
It will free you first from the burning thirst
That is born of a night of the bowl
Like a sun ’twill rise through the inky skies
That so heavily hang o’er your soul
At the first cool sip on your fevered lip
You determine to live through the day
Life’s again worth while as with dawning smile
You imbibe your absinthe frappe
Performance
