When you have; the lyrics of the song, as well as the statements that have come up in the press make a lot of sense.
Do you turn up to your job drunk? Repeatedly? Do you actually think that is ok? Do you think your coworkers should have to worry about you doing or even showing up for your job because you decided to have a drink? Do you think they should have to tolerate the abuse that comes from the typical drunken bender, even valid arguments that should be had while sober, but are intensified and irrational because they got liquid courage and started up .

Stupid and arrogant, that's what you are. Or else, why are you insulting me instead of answering such a simple question that arises from your own statement???
FYI, I've been working in the entertainment business and education for >30 years and have dealt with more addicts than you can think of (alcohol, pot, coke, heroin, you name it!), many died in their teens or around 30 or 50 yr so spare me your crap when you call me "naive and ignorant" because you have no idea who you're talking to and you're no expert just because your mother or father or ??? was a drunkard.
We're not talking about "what it is like to be on the receiving end of the actions of an alcoholic" but about the lyrics to a song "as well as the statements that have come up in the press". I'll repeat: YOU are the one who brought the subject about. If it is so obvious, how come you're unable to explain it all?
