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
