Barangrill |
Three waitresses all wearing |
Black diamond earrings |
Talking about zombies |
And Singapore slings |
No trouble in their faces |
Not one anxious voice |
None of the crazy you get |
From too much choice |
The thumb and the satchel |
Or the rented Rolls-Royce |
And you think she knows something |
By the second refill |
You think she’s enlightened |
As she totals your bill |
You say «Show me the way |
To Barangrill» |
Well some say it’s in service |
They say «Humble Makes Pure» |
You’re hoping it’s near Folly |
'Cause you’re headed that way for sure |
And you just have to laugh |
'Cause it’s all so crazy |
Ah, her mind’s on her boyfriend |
And eggs over easy |
It’s just a trick on you |
Her mirrors and your will |
So you ask the truck driver |
On the way to the till |
But he’s just a slave |
To Barangrill |
The guy at the gaspumps |
He’s got a lot of soul |
He sings Merry Christmas for you |
Just like Nat King Cole |
And he makes up his own tune |
Right on the spot |
About whitewalls and windshields |
And this job he’s got |
And you want to get moving |
And you want to stay still |
But lost in the moment |
Some longing gets filled |
And you even forget to ask |
«Hey, Where’s Barangrill?» |
