Monday Musical Offering Thirsty Edition

It’s hot, or as a relative of mine would say, hooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwt.  It’s ridiculous to try to get anything done after, say, 2 in the afternoon.  You go outside and do things for just a few minutes and then stagger inside and drink a half-liter of water with electrolytes.  The effort of doing that leaves you kind of thirsty, so you drink another.  It’s then time to get up and rinse out your glass, and the effort of that leaves you thirsty again, so you drink another.  And so on.  It’s supposed to be better tomorrow.

Meantime, here’s something from Offenbach’s Tales of Hoffmann—a drinking song sung by the students who are very thirsty.
