The Lyrics
This parody was inspired by a comment by another author on my previous submission, "Surviving Everclear". The subject of this work is an anonymous boozer who makes a huge quantity of a cocktail made of a popular grape-flavored, non-carbonated soft drink, pure alcohol and Amaretto liqueur and drinks it all.
I am deep into boozin’
Drinkin’ booze is what I do
I'm obsessed with the liquor
And drinkin’ alone’s what I do
I made some Purple Passion
A hard drink
It’s got pure alcohol
(And Kool-Aid®)
And it’s got amaretto
I’ve just drank about fourteen
Shots of my purple booze
I’ve just drank more than fourteen
My liver, I’m gonna lose
Gonna fail my Breathalyzer
My license, I will lose
If I drive in my Yugo
After I drink all that booze
Purple Passion, Purple Passion
A punch called Jungle Juice
Is a true frat-house fave
That punch called Jungle Juice
Is probably my very next fave
Drinkin’ booze is what I do
I'm obsessed with the liquor
And drinkin’ alone’s what I do
I made some Purple Passion
A hard drink
It’s got pure alcohol
(And Kool-Aid®)
And it’s got amaretto
I’ve just drank about fourteen
Shots of my purple booze
I’ve just drank more than fourteen
My liver, I’m gonna lose
Gonna fail my Breathalyzer
My license, I will lose
If I drive in my Yugo
After I drink all that booze
Purple Passion, Purple Passion
A punch called Jungle Juice
Is a true frat-house fave
That punch called Jungle Juice
Is probably my very next fave
Don't Drink And Drive!

when you're serving up alcohol from a big plastic garbage pail, you know its quality stuff...lol...nice job
Well, we skip the amaretto here in the boonies of northern Missouri, but a great job nonetheless. 555
Thanks, Alvin, and thanks TR.
Oh, I would love to try your drink "Purple Passion" one of these days because amaretto is one of my favorite liqueurs. Great lyrics and interesting use of the song title with a different color. Take some passionately purple 5's!!
Actually, Christie, I didn't invent Purple Passion. How I make it for myself (in a 1-liter beer stein, I never drive a car after drinking it or any other kind of alcohol), includes 1 cup of Everclear, 2 shots of amaretto and grape Kool-Aid to fill. It is then stirred with a wooden spoon and drunk afterward. It is VERY potent and not for the faint of heart, liver, stomach or esophagus. Thanks for the vote and comment, btw.
That takes me back to my college days--as purple as a Truman State bulldog. BTW, I don't know if you can get this in your state, but they do sell it in 2-liter bottles here. Who the heck would want it?
Thanks again, TR. I have seen it in 2-liter bottles too, and I am lucky enough not to have tried it.
I'll drink to this
Thanks, AFW.
A compliment to an orange smelly kitty.
Thanks, 2Eagle, but what is an "orange smelly kitty"?
There was a time I spent in Tennessee and they would drink a liquor called "White Lightning". In my home town growing-up there was a large Portuguese population and they made stuff we called "Portugee Bang Bang". I think it's all the same. Good job.
the parody was better than the taste of the concoction I just tried from this....
555 Proof, Andria. Yummy...
Thanks, IB... I think that the two liquors you're referring to are other names for moonshine (basically pure alcohol, just like Everclear), thanks Malcolm, lol, and the point of Purple Passion is to get wasted fast, not to taste good, and thanks Mark.
