Hey, bartender, you have every right
To close early on a Tuesday night
Hey, bartender, that’s your god-given right
To close this place tonight
But is there time to make a toast to unclaimed fortunes still around or
at least fake a hope that we could retake this town?
Maybe we can remap the streets while the citizenry is sleeping – we’ll
be careful to remove the stars over the city to storage for safekeeping
Bartender, how much cash did we blow through? I’m afraid to check
and see
But I’m sure we did our duty single-handedly buttressing this flagging
economy
They talk about “consumer confidence”
I’m confident we could consume everything hanging out ‘til 4
a.m. doing shots and hardly sleeping – they really removed the stars
of this city to storage for safekeeping
They say you can go for months and never have to leave this town and they say life is back to normal, so then why are my celebrity sightings down?
They have some nerve to take entertainment away from me and you –
you know they’ve got to serve, they’ve got to do their part,
because it can’t mean the death of irony, too
You turn over and yell “please shut up, jackass, I was already sleeping”
But, sweetie, don’t you see? They put the stars of this city in storage
for safekeeping
But I’ll tell you what – I love it when you tell me to shut up – I’ll tell you what – I missed that so much
