cd: 88 Years
track 8: Don’t Forget the Barman
When you get drunk
Don’t forget the barman
After he’s been taking care of you
When you get drunk
Don’t forget the barman
Some drunken generosity is due
Don’t forget the barman
He’s listening to drunk talk
For 8 hours in a row
And chuckles at
The bad jokes that you tell
He’s nearly lost his voice
And his hearing’s on the wane
The bands so loud
He always has to yell
Chorus
He can pour a half and half
Or draw the perfect pint
And maybe leave
A shamrock in the foam
He’s waiting for The Parting Glass
It never comes too soon
And call the cab
To safely get you home
Chorus
Tonight he pub is packed
And it’s always understaffed
Blender drinks
Will bog the barman down
All the pretty co-eds
And their friend turns twenty-one
They’ll take margaritas all around
Chorus
You’ve picked out a hottie
And you’re working on your plan
He refrains from
Laughing in your face
He knows you’ve no chance
Of ending up with her tonight
You won’t find out
Until they close the place
Chorus
