Oh, look at me
The giant monstrosity
I've got a belly full of beer
And I've had it up to here
With my friend's animosity
So, I whack him round the head
And oh shit, I think he's dead
I could help him off the floor
But he called my wife a whore
So, I'll leave him there instead
My other friends all clap and cheer
And order me another beer
He tries to get up
Like a whimpering little pup
So I clip him round the ear
And then I fall against the bar
Thinking I'm some wrestling star
But I have pushed my limits
And it's only twenty minutes
Til' I'm in a police car
And only one more night in jail
Til' I do it all again
Oh look at me
Playing on the fruit machines
It's really not that many
Til' it's taken every penny
And it's gone and rinsed me clean
So, I swear at the Goddamn thing
Shake it till' I hear that ding ding ding
A quid falls loose
It's immediately put to use
cos, I'm the bloody king
You've never seen such bloomin luck
Good fortune finally struck
I make fifty pounds
All my friends gather round
Now, I'm no longer stuck
Well I can easily make some more
I did it once before
So I feed it all back in
Don't get a single bloody win
Til' I have to walk out the door
And only one more pay day
Til' I do it all again
Coz, in this bar
They will show their face
No dumb thought or action
Ever put to waste
Groundhog Day is coming true
We call it the Publican's Deja Vu
Yes, we call it the Publican's DejaVu
Oh, look at me
I'm the kid with no I.D
And every single day
I'll try and find a way
To buy my mates some whiskey
I'll try and give the man some extra cash
I'll wear a comically large moustache
I'll pop my short mates on my shoulder
To make me look a bit older
And then I give it another bash
But the bartender sees right through
The trenchcoat and trelby too
He says that we should go
But what the hell does he know
I could pass for forty-two
The bartender's such a fucking twat
So I go ahead and call him that
He puts away the rum
Then he goes and calls my mum
I grab my bum bag and bucket hat
And only one more day of school
Til' I do it all again
Coz, in this bar
They will show their face
No dumb thought or action
Ever put to waste
Groundhog Day is coming true
We call it the Publican's Deja Vu
Yes, we call it the Publican's DejaVu
Like clockwork we will all be here
For shots of rum and pints of beer
The depths of our human despair
Don't know how to help, only to share
We live, we laugh, we cry, we die
We see the same damn faces every time
And nothing's strange and nothing's new
The same old jokes and points of view
We'll age, we'll fade, we'll change, we'll grow
But the outside world will never know
What goes on, behind these doors
I think I might have told this joke before
And the world will spin and the world will change
But we have eachother and that's not strange
Our little pocket of frozen time
Hey, Chris can you play Sweet Caroline
No
Coz, in this bar
They will show their face
No dumb thought or action
Ever put to waste
Groundhog Day is coming true
We call it the Publican's Deja Vu
Coz, in this bar
They will show their face
No dumb thought or action
Ever put to waste
Groundhog Day is coming true
We call it the Publican's Deja Vu
Yes, we call it the Publican's DejaVu
