The Lyrics
When I hear a bartender pouring drinks (drinks, drinks)
I can count on getting my fill
Take me where the vodka is strong
Let me be a drinking fool
Some prefer the Cheers bar
Sipping Coors beer on a stool
Me, I rather be at Charlie's Bar
That's where I am a drinking fool
I'll show you some moves rough as sandpaper
And others they don't dare teach in school
When the bartender says order up
Just give me a chance and my beer mug and
Presto
I'm a drinking fool
When those suds hit my nose
I ain't got a care man
I'm like Barney on Simpsons (cool)
Just give me a chance adn-
My beer mug and-
Hey Presto-
I'm a drinking fool
I'm a drinking fool, yeah!
I can count on getting my fill
Take me where the vodka is strong
Let me be a drinking fool
Some prefer the Cheers bar
Sipping Coors beer on a stool
Me, I rather be at Charlie's Bar
That's where I am a drinking fool
I'll show you some moves rough as sandpaper
And others they don't dare teach in school
When the bartender says order up
Just give me a chance and my beer mug and
Presto
I'm a drinking fool
When those suds hit my nose
I ain't got a care man
I'm like Barney on Simpsons (cool)
Just give me a chance adn-
My beer mug and-
Hey Presto-
I'm a drinking fool
I'm a drinking fool, yeah!

. . . una Cerveza, Senior?
When I saw the title, I thought this was supposed to be a Zappa tune. HA! 555 just for digging up this obscurity.
I never thought of it that way. This should be actually recorded. I like to hear Barry sing this.
