it’s always christmas in this bar
and it’s always st. pad’s and also it’s halloween
nothing here is ever thrown away
here real art always has its say

kenny hangs a brand new work
just about every 30 days
look around it’s the 4th of july
it’s always christmas in this bar

at the bar a regular
proves once more he’s just a xenophobic jerk
the piano is always out of tune
but just the keys that work

soundman thinks the night away
his mix might lead you to say
that you have entered h-ll
but on h-ll’s most festive holiday

oh, but it ain’t only the piano that’s been drinking
i tip my hat to kenny
that is, if i can only find my hat
and there’s a ring gold belt of stars
that hovers proudly over the bar
someone’s playin’ that house guitar
it’s always christmas in this bar

johnny’s back from his last bender
he’s mixing c-cktails behind the bar
he wears silver rings
then he puts on a programmed smile
(go johnny go johnny)
he’s got a bandy turquoise bolo tie
for every woman he’s got a line
there’ll be one more bender
he won’t return that time

outside on the corner
the young and old share their papers
their pipes and their pot
some still smoke tobacco
but weed says louder “f-yours” to the cops
but late night some guy drove a drunken car
through the front wall right into the bar
thank god the pizza man lived
or some of us might just starve

if you’re free on sunday
there’s always a free sunday meal
all you need to do is say one prayer
and buy yourself a couple beers
me, i always tip the truck
if i find he’s still standing
and i’m proud to say
i ain’t ever thrown up after eating here

well, somewhere on the earth
there may be a bar i find stranger
and the soundman and some women
i’m real glad johnny’s gone
(go johnny go johnny)
but a stranger’s just a stranger here
for less than one half a beer
and the only fear we gotta fear
is when the last call’s called

and it ain’t only the piano that’s been drinking
where else have you seen people
juggle people with their feet?
and pic-sso and george bernard shaw hold court
over kenny’s lovely bar
and it’s my turn to play guitar
it’s always christmas in this bar
