Hello Mudcat! I'm looking for a song we sang as kids (around 1980 in Ontario, Canada). This is how it starts, but there was more:

I'm Drinkula, I drink trala
Indian ink and glue
Paste by lepage and mucilage
Watercolors too

I drink, drink, drink
till I am drunk
And on the verge of bursting...

Sound familiar to anyone?

Thanks, Marion

It was from "A measure of pleasure", a play about Canada's change to the metric s system, by Eunice Lawrence. She was my grade 6 English teacher, and I gender the song because I played Drinkula. (In 1977>. Unfortunately I don't remember the rest of the lyrics.
