Some Bartenders Have The Gift Of Pardon - Mark Eitzel (马克·艾扎)[00:00:00]

Spec's almost drowned off the coast of California[00:00:29]

And started this museum[00:00:36]

To help the shipwrecked remember[00:00:39]

They grow quiet[00:00:43]

The sea grows colder[00:00:47]

Drinking the night away[00:00:51]

Burn bridges grow older[00:00:54]

Kent worked at Spec's since 1970[00:00:58]

Right after Haight Street finally choked on its own vomit[00:01:05]

An impartial smile made him a gentleman[00:01:12]

Some bartenders have the gift of pardon[00:01:21]

A bar has a longer history than a country[00:01:42]

What keeps the moon chained[00:01:49]

Are ridiculous acts of faith[00:01:52]

And after a couple of drinks[00:01:56]

Visionary eyes all burn[00:01:59]

The drunks seem saint-like[00:02:04]

In their disillusion[00:02:07]

Kent always knew the serious nature of a smile[00:02:11]

Knew the serious nature of the job he was given[00:02:18]

Never told himself there's only so much a man could take on[00:02:25]

Some bartenders have the gift of pardon[00:02:33]

With the same old tape wearing out in the background[00:03:11]

Billie Holiday "Solitude"[00:03:17]

Or some sad old Irish folk songs[00:03:20]

You're not promised the moon[00:03:24]

Or lied to by its distractions[00:03:27]

You enter the world alone[00:03:31]

And that's the first and the last thing[00:03:34]

It seems one night he was having a hard time falling asleep[00:03:38]

And found himself in an accidental shipwreck[00:03:46]

Dreaming he's still at the bar counting sheep[00:03:53]

The cold ocean threw its chains around his neck[00:04:00]

Never have to worry about counterfeits at 2 a m [00:04:16]

'Cause that's all there is[00:04:23]

'Cause that's all there is[00:04:26]

Just some old poets drinking[00:04:29]

The last nightmare in[00:04:33]

And the comfort of the dark[00:04:37]

And being forgotten[00:04:40]

Some bartenders have the gift of pardon[00:04:45]

Some bartenders have the gift of pardon[00:04:52]
