You could say "if the bar closes and you feel like falling down," or "if, by the time bar closes, you feel like falling down."  What's fucking up the grammar isn't the 'and' alone, it's the fact that the 'and' is connecting a clause and a prepositional phrase.

Yeah, it's a dangerous little earworm.  I listened to it relentlessly after I first heard it in an iPod commercial (despite my best efforts to stay away), but time finally did its work, and it faded away in my memory.
