Letra de Arc Of Bar - Japandroids

Hustlers, whores, in rooms galore
A sinking city's stink
An arc of bar, a flesh bazaar
Of diamonds, dust and drink

The jukebox jamming, the lions lamming
The jokers doing the dealing
And queens are over jacks
Remember that or catch a beating

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

The night had come into her own
And I made the arc of bar my home
Beneath my clothes, just a bag of bones
Under my skin, just skeletons

I was rolling like a pair of dice
With one for laws and one for lies
But all this, I tried to hide
Behind a glaze of sweat and fire

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

To some, a mistress, to some, a muse
Something soft for something blue
She sauced my needs out of my dreams
And baptized me in flesh that seeds

And then she lay me like a baby
On a bed of Spanish moss
And for her love, I would help the devil
To steal Christ right off the cross

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

I lay blame on the arc of bar
And the hundred proof in me
https://www.coveralia.com/letras/arc-of-bar-japandroids.php
But the arc, it blames the air
Hundred percent humidity

Well at least those damned mosquitoes
That fall flounder to the flood
Get a thimble full of whiskey
With their paltry pint of blood, my blood

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

This port of call, it ain't no port at all
The cap, my cup and anchors up
The jokers, they tease another hand
But they're out of luck, 'cause I'm out of town

And the sun is like an omen
Goading me toward the gospel
But I got no plans at all
Except to drink as soon as possible

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

Some men offer confession
For their souls and grace of God
For others women, women are for mercy
And mosquitoes they're abuzz

Yeah, some men offer confession
For their souls and grace of God
For others women, women are for mercy
And mosquitoes they're abuzz

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
