no better lyrics

 

12.8.2008

let me tell you about this four-walled, sleazy, sunk speak-easy
low below the thieves and streets
welcoming you into a four floor descent, where even good boys need rent
and toothpaste for their yellow teeth
because the day's pass quickly, high above me
it's night forever where i dry
and the bar's too busy to get you dizzy
and everybody talks in cries

because they know no better
when the weather never strikes a conversation here
we're down in satan's cellar, satan's cellar
where they hold the wickedest so dear

are you scared of what these four walls could say?
if they could speak, would they?
yeah blow for blow, they'll sell you out
in an italian accent, laced with intent
patience is the virtue now
because the days pass quickly high above me
i'm doomed forever where i sit
and the barmaid's quiz me, please forgive me
for slurring all my alibis

because they know no better
when the weather never strikes a conversation here
we're down in satan's cellar, satan's cellar
where they hold the wickedest so dear

where they honour and they drink and they fear
dear, they're not looking for your sympathy here
where they drink just to drown what's inside
dear, they swear the destination's the ride

because they know no better
when the weather never strikes a conversation here
we're down in satan's cellar, satan's cellar
where they hold the wickedest so dear
you know the fortune teller
reaks of leather - he stole your wallet now he knows your name
yeah, he's a future seller: not too clever
cause he worships at the cistern here.

---------------------------------------

yay. new(ish) songs for the win. that ones about this hilariously dodgy bar in soho. they seem to have a slight penchant for mafia dons and crime lords. the drinks are warm, which is more than i can say for the reception i got at the bar.

anyway, the song is the b-side for saturday, which came out yesterday. please go buy it in any or all of it's myriad forms. cd or itunes. itunes or cd. itunes AND cd? yes.

also, we're playing the lovely london town on saturday. camden barfly. matinee show. doors at 12. we'll be hitting off some fun time tunes!

full japan report to follow. glossy pictures. the works! it was the time of our lives.
