    No that would have been too obvious poor old Niccolo :( , and it's not dear Richard either.

    Philosopher post-Kant and he is mentioned in Bruce's Song :)

    Bentham? Mill? Bentham was something of a bon vivant, so it certainly could be him... :hmm:

    Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
    Who was very rarely stable.

    Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
    Who could think you under the table.

    David Hume could out-consume
    Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, [some versions have 'Schopenhauer and Hegel'

    And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
    Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.

    There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya
    'Bout the raising of the wrist.
    Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed.

    John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
    On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.

    Plato, they say, could stick it away--
    Half a crate of whisky every day.

    Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle.
    Hobbes was fond of his dram,

    And René Descartes was a drunken fart.
    'I drink, therefore I am.'

    Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed,
    A lovely little thinker,
    But a bugger when he's pissed.
    Mill is mentioned but it wasn't him

    Another great guess but no

    But we have a winner step up to the plate Morgoroth
