Hey, Bar-man, what's up?  You sure got the best job;  What with all these patrons;  At your beck and call    Or, is it the other way round;  You feting them, to the last man;  Even if he is down and out;  Having spent all he had    But, hang on;  What's the big deal about that?  When members of the legal profession;  Also practice from ‘the Bar’?    Of course, of a different kind;  For them, it’s so reverential;  It’s almost temple-like;  So, here’s the deal, Bar-man:    Don't you think it's high time;  You changed your 'name'  And, left the limelight;  For whom it is more appropriate?    'Bar-man kor’, Bar-code ni';  As the Yorubas would say:  Spitefully, derisively;  Your stock response? 'In bad taste'    You could say that;  You're lucky you are here;  And, not in certain parts;  Of you-know-where    Where people like you ply their trade -  At great personal risk;  Where alcohol is not for sale;  And, its consumption is forbidden    So, thank your stars;  And, not the bar;  Which you call work:  The real bar-men belong to the Law!
