Though you do the best you can. When life looks black as the hour of night Apint of plain is your only man. When money's tight and hard to get And your horse has also ran. When all you have is a heap of debt A pint of plain is your only man. When health is strange and your heart feels strange And your face is pale and wan. When doctors say that you need a change A pint of plain is your only man When food is scarce and your larder bare And no rashers grease your pan. When hunger grows as your meals are rare A pint of plain is your only man In times of trouble and lonley strife You have still got a darling plan. You can still turn to a brighter life, A pint of plain is your only man. Written by Flann O'Brien,the pseudonym of Brian O'Nolan,in his exceptional 1939 "At Swim Two Birds".This psychedelic novel will be a tremendous read for all Dubaholics.
