The Lyrics
After watching a marathon of the Spike TV series "Bar Rescue", I wanted to write a tribute to the smelliest and grungiest of dive bars and its proud owner. Original Song
I bought it from my parents, seemed like it would go great
Business was going strong, but now it slowly fades
Smelly rats now call it home, it’s the worst of any tavern
Our cook’s a bum, the bartender’s always late
“Please help that bar, it need some rescue”
Drinks always spilled, there’s bugs and grease
Oh no, we’re not a biker bar... yet it smells like gas and tar
The morning crowd, they sleep in there...they don’t care
Folks laugh and stare, say it needs rescued
Our wings aren't new, they’re quite moldy
Don’t have to come, screw you! We’ll let you go...
Don’t have to come...it’s home to me!
Business was going strong, but now it slowly fades
Smelly rats now call it home, it’s the worst of any tavern
Our cook’s a bum, the bartender’s always late
“Please help that bar, it need some rescue”
Drinks always spilled, there’s bugs and grease
Oh no, we’re not a biker bar... yet it smells like gas and tar
The morning crowd, they sleep in there...they don’t care
Folks laugh and stare, say it needs rescued
Our wings aren't new, they’re quite moldy
Don’t have to come, screw you! We’ll let you go...
Don’t have to come...it’s home to me!

I think I've seen this show before and it's pretty fun kinda like "Kitchen Nightmares" without Gordon Ramsay. This was a well done tribute!
Haven't seen the show, but I think I've seen the bar.
Never heard of this show, so the motif of the inexplicable bad grammar is lost on me....or was that a bad Spell check session? You did do a lot for such a short song.
It is the first time I heard of the show, I would mind checking it out. Certainly won't be checking out the bar, that's for certain.
(Artistry) Haven't heard of the show, but I get the concept. Pretty good stuff here, but like Agri said, the weird grammar was, well, weird. 555 all the same, though.
(Artistry) Yeah, the grammar through me off too. But high marks for cramming a lot of good content into a very short song. I'll have to check out this show now!
