paroles de chanson The Anthropophagists' Club (Live) - Abney Park

Well
I know a cabaret
Down a blackened street
Where all the darkest knaves
And darkest villains meet
They'll drink the darkest booze
Smoking the foulest weeds
If you've ever had an itch
Someone there can meet your needs

Well
I fell down there
I barely got back up again
I saw her coal black hair
I saw her porcelain skin
If I told you she sang nice
I'd be a liar true
Her band was cold as ice
Under the spotlight shining blue

What's this odd taste in my drink?
Startin' not to care what anybody thinks
Say what you will, I'm gettin' outta this place
What's this odd taste in my drink?
I'm startin' not to care what anybody thinks
Say what you will, I'm gettin' outta this place

Well
She said, "Son, take my hand
You've got a trustworthy face"
I said, "I dig your band
Now let's get outta this place"
She lead me to a room
With a suspicious smell
I soon fell asleep
And I woke up in hell

What's this odd taste in my drink?
Startin' not to care what anybody thinks
Say what you will, I'm gettin' outta this place
What's this odd taste in my drink?
I'm startin' not to care what anybody thinks
Say what you will, I'm gettin' outta this place

When I woke up again
I was tied to the wall
My shirt was to my waist
Felt like I'd been in a brawl
There were all kinds of tubes
Flowing steady from my veins
Pumping from arms and chest
And legs and one was hooked to my brains

There were tubes of glass
From my shoulders to my ass
And they mixed in a bowl of the crap
And the cauldron drained
Into the cabaret's veins
And they ended at the bartender's tap
So when he filled a mug
A pint, liter, or jug
It was me that was in their tank
Before I turn bereft
Before my consciousness left
I thought 'who had I drank?'

What's this odd taste in my drink?
Startin' not to care what anybody thinks
Say what you will, I'm gettin' outta this place
What's this odd taste in my drink?
I'm startin' not to care what anybody thinks
Say what you will, I'm gettin' outta this place
