Soft colors splashed here and there
create a masterpiece for days of old.
Paintings hung on the wall
enjoyed by customers or to be sold.
Woodwork adorns the halls,
designs engraved on the glass door.
Preserved stillborn deer on display
a soft melancholy like the night before.
An atmosphere set to music in the past
of fun, entertainment, comedy and regret.
The years have been trapped in the walls.
Come and allow your memories to get wet.
Put a toe in the door and we'll do the rest
just sit back and let us host your evening.
We've been doing it for years and years
and have barely had to change a thing.
