The Lyrics
It was a bar maid fight, and I was drooling like a dog
It was a bar maid fight, I watched them rolling, in the grog
I know I shouldn't have stared, while they pulled each other's hair
But I could gawk all night
Joanne worked hard all day, she took my money and served me drinks
It began when she heard Cindy say, "Your face is ugly, and you stink
You always bitch and you moan, and you steal tips from my zone
And now I'll make you pay"
Poor Joanne, caught in a headlock so tight
At the bar, all the drunks screamed with delight,
FIGHT! YEAH!
It was a bar maid fight, they came out swinging with their mops
It was a bar maid fight, they lost their aprons, and their tops
I'm such a pig when I leer, but when they're covered in beer
It makes the world seem right
Wow!
They wrestled on the dance floor, I stood up cheering for more
Until I heard them say,
"Well you know, somehow it doesn't seem right
That this jerk's, gaining pleasure from our plight!"
YIKES! HELP!
I'm in a bar maid fight, they grabbed me, threw me, from my stool
I'm in a bar maid fight, and then they kicked me, in the jewels
They laughed with joy when I squealed, "Curse you and your pointy
heels"
I guess I'm not too bright
I didn't think they'd bite
But still they're out of sight!

That's what I get for trying to type my name at 4 in the morning =)
ROTFLMAO!!!
mr. reuben, this misspelt name is a very shrewd tactical, cause you make an excuse to submit again and earn more publicities! You wanker! but a song with beautyfull girls soaking in beers and groping each others is very happy!
I am in hysterics. My eyes are tearing with laughter. I can't wait to see the video!
LOL!! This is HIGH-larious, Mr. Reubem!! My favorite of the day!!
never happens at my bar (what am I doing wrong?) - L'edMAO Jeff - great title match too! - 555
A huge BRAVO for just the idea...let alone the great parody. 555
Nice parody. But if you want this one to be listed under your parody author name, you'd probably have to resubmit it with your correct name.
Mr. Reubem, welcome to amiright! There is some guy named Jeff Rueben with an "n" whos works you may want to check out sometime, they're really good. =)
I'd tip my hat, among other things, to that... :-)
Thass whatr happrems wjehn yoy drimk tooo muxh, Keff...good prardoy. 5 ~ ! !!
I agree with Peter Amderssom aka k1chyd. You kmow, this "chamged letter" game remimds me of something dome a few times om "Whose Lime Is It Amyway"...ome time they chamged "p" to "g"...for example, ome of the things Colim Mochrie said was "soda gog." :D
Thank you odly, OLEF, Erwen, Edd, Staurt, Cristof, Spelchk, Rid Aunt, Pal, amomymous, k1khid! This "Jeff Reuben" character has nothing on me =)
Best parody of this song I've seen. Congrats!
JB: High praise from one of the Beatles Masters. Thanks!
This one's a riot Jeff!...555
So that's why Diane left Cheers: Carla kept kicking her ass.
Great...sound-like title...paints funny and sexy mental images..a premium write..
Nichael, great minds think alike. In my original draft, I had Diane and Carla, not Joanne and Cindy. Didn't want it to be based on Cheers though, so I made the switch. I do reserve the right to use "Arwen" and "Ashley" if I perform it though =)
Ooooh, Jeff, you'd be flirting with death if you did that.
555 Estupendous! ;-D
555 Estupendous! ;-D
LOL! FABULOUS!
[SOTM] Fast-paced, funny, masterfully written... this was parodying at its very best 555
Hot-looking, beer-drenched, scantily-clad women grappling at each other is okay with me...
They are hot-looking, beer-drenched and scantily-clad, right, Reubem...?
They are hot-looking, beer-drenched and scantily-clad, right, Reubem...?
[SOTM], by the way... duh...
(SOTM) The picture I get in my head from reading this is pretty darned funny Jeff. Great work here.
SOTM--yep...still one of the best things I've ever read...=) GREAT job, Jeff!!!
This is amazing. This is excellent. I shall drink to this on 7/23 (I wish). MORE BEER!
(SOTM) Great stuff, Jeff. Top notch!
(SOTM) I've already commented on this one once before, but there cannot be enough bar maid fights so this goes into the shortlist on top of my shortlist with more than half of the submissions checked out by now. Also, some of the lines has such great pacing that when I loudly sung along I couldn't hear a single syllable from the original over my voice (though of course the neighbours' stupid hammering on the wall didn't help either).
Very good, Jeff. Reminds me of Raquel Welch on Seinfeld, when she and Elaine had a 'catfight'. SOTM
Mow I have seem everythimg! Great parody! I havem't read a good "story" parody im quite a while! (Is sonethimg wromg with ny keyboard?)
well done, but no surprise. im heading out to the bar to find me a bar maid.
(SOTM) See, in 9 days, when I'm 21, I'm gonna go to a bar and this might happen, that's the goal, good work Jeff
(SOTM) See above. I repeat, BRAVO!
(SOTM) Still a riot!
(sotm) I want to find out more about this Cindy, Jeff, she's becominga regular of yours - great parody - as Homer says: "beer - the cause of AND the solution to all life's problems"
"Beertiful!" --Claude Prez
Great all the way through, but the "mops" verse launched it into classic territory. Love it love it love it. (Beatles, bar maids, beer, boobs. What's not to love?)

(SOTM) The " leer/beer " verse is classic!
(SOTM) Hilarious! A real riot!! 5's
(SOTM) it was decent until the last verse, then it got better
Thought I'd commented on this one, too. Beautifully told, Jeff: a lovely story in parody form.
SOTM.. Great job, Jeff. I can see this song playing in an ad for "Barmaids Gone Wild". 555
LOL. Great rhyme matches to the OS, Jeff.
OMG! You rock!

very funny,sounds like my old drinkin days
(2005 SOTY) Wow. A real stunner, Jeff. Vivid, funny imagery, AND some of the best pacing I've ever seen. Great work.
(2005SOTY) See above, twice, and it's a pleasure to revisit this one.
This is delightful. I'd swear I read it before, but somehow never voted or commented. Great stuff.
(2005SOTY) I agree with everything said on this thread. (Nobody dissed you did they?)
(SOTY 2005) Ha! Even more enjoyable with audio accompaniment. (Cheers, Spaff!) Perfectly paced and a hilarious progression from start to end.
(soty 06) see above
Very good parody. The "drooling like a dog" metaphor is more creative and accurate than "working like a dog" in TOS.
Still love it. "When they're covered in beer it makes the world seem right." Indeed.
