This is a new rendition of the song I wrote and recorded about twenty years ago. The original is a solo vocal/piano recording in one take without overdubs or editing. I posted it on my You Tube channel  but I thought its 8 minute length was too long to burden Sound Cloud listeners with. For this shorter new rendition I sampled piano and vocal parts from the original  to add additional piano and vocal layers to the song.
The lyrics : relate to the observations by a fictional bartender who notices
many barflies (regular customers) treat bartenders like  full-time "substitute psychologists". 
Lyrics:
I'm your bartender. 
Welcome all you barflies. Let's give cheers to this Friday night.
You made it through another work week, baby
and I hope you are feeling alright.

Wash away your blues... and become numb...and don't think of reality
Become a barfly baby...and watch out for what you see

C'mon, won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because when it's all over, I'm gonna poor you a shot and a drink...
and it will make you think I'm a part-time bartender
But, I'm really a full-time shrink
[instrumental bridge]

I know about your life I know just about everything
Because every night you make your emotions sing to me
...and if you knew...and I need to prove this to you
Let me introduce you, baby to barflies who come through

In the back, stands Al Maloney
He says he "cant afford the alimony" (he bought a new Rolls Royce)

Next to you, stands Susan
She comes here for romance
But she's always boozn' while cruisin'
and never gets her chance

C'mon...won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because I'm gonna poor you a shot and a drink
and it'll make you think I'm a part-time bartender
But, I'm really a full-time shrink

I'm your bartender
The lovers are Dave and Hue..."Bartender"..."Bartender"
But all they ever seem to do is argue

Oh, here comes a newcomer...really out to dress!
Why don't you turn to him...and try to confess
You are now a barfly, baby...
and you don't really know what to feel

C'mon, won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because when it's all over I'm gonna poor me a shot and a drink...
and it makes me think...a shot and a drink...and it makes me think...
a shot and a drink...and it makes you think

I'm a part-time bartender
But I feel like... I'm a part-time bartender
but they see me like I'm a part-time bartender
But they treat me like  their full-time shrink.

"Wobbly guitars old synths, valve amps, homemade instruments, unreliable equipment and cracked voices makes our output sparse but we love to jam". Words from Doc's long and disjointed memories.

I'm told I think outside of the box. It's hard to think why I'd be inside one in the first place.  A FREE DOWNLOAD of some of my tracks:
