'02: Be True to Your Bar - The Magnetic Fields[00:00:00]
Written by:Stephin Merritt[00:00:01]
Sitting in bars and cafés[00:00:07]
Writing songs about songs[00:00:14]
And plays within plays[00:00:18]
But how rarely we dare[00:00:21]
To write something that says[00:00:25]
Anything about bars and cafés[00:00:28]
Be true to your bar[00:00:39]
And don't let it down[00:00:43]
Or else it may not always be around[00:00:47]
Be true to your friends[00:00:53]
And let your friends know[00:00:57]
Without your bar you'd have no place to go[00:01:01]
You can't drink tea all day long[00:01:16]
You'll have two heart attacks[00:01:22]
Before you write the third song[00:01:26]
And how barely you'll care[00:01:29]
If the rhythm's all wrong[00:01:32]
Drinking Irish Breakfast all day long[00:01:36]
Eight hours is all you can take[00:01:47]
Of tea at St. Dymphna's[00:01:54]
Until your hands shake[00:01:57]
Then repair to your lair[00:02:00]
For booze and beefcake[00:02:04]
Eight more hours till you can't stay awake[00:02:07]
Be true to your bar[00:02:17]
And don't let it down[00:02:21]
Or else it may not always be around[00:02:25]
Be true to your friends[00:02:31]
And let your friends know[00:02:35]
Without your bar you'd have no place to go[00:02:39]
Be true to your bar[00:02:45]
And don't let it down[00:02:49]
Or else it may not always be around[00:02:53]
Be true to your friends[00:02:59]
Without your bar you'd have no place to go[00:03:06]
Be true to your bar[00:03:13]
