Bar Flies

Bar Flies belongs to the following groups:

All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical

Where liquors flow
Right out the doors
And peanut shells
Cover dirty floors
Where times stands still
But at the same time not
Where memories are made
But soon forgot
Where fantasy girls
Are on parade
And sway their hips
Just to get paid
Where many a last little
Penny is spent
And relationships
Have come and went
Where Piano Man
Will play his song
This is not
Where we belong
