lyrics
Did they tear the tavern down?
I’m searching since I’m back in town.
I saw the neon yesterday.
Buildings don’t just walk away
Yeah, you could drink anywhere
Brighter but I couldn’t care.
What I want’s those basement stairs
Just the taste of air down there.
I never got a picture of those golden lights
I swear that some of you were down there every night
Singing out of tune
Drinking in the Wreckage Room
Yeah, they used to do it wrong
They didn’t use to live so long
And that’s a couple lives ago,
I always felt ‘em in me though
A habit you can never kick,
A fate that you can never trick,
Losing every game of pool
Falling off of every stool
I never got a picture of those golden lights
But I swear that some of you were down there every night
Singing out of tune
Drinking in the Wreckage Room
Where did you spend the years,
What brings you back so late?
Under the power lines,
Off in the golden state.
Wanted to see the snow,
Work in the shop again.
Drink in the Wreckage Room.
So, have you seen my friends?
Here I found a sewer grate
Listen while the hour’s late
You can hear the Brewer shout
Hear ‘em roll the barrel out
Everybody screams destroy
The singer with a ruined voice
Feedback from the amplifiers
The smell of all the smoking wires
I never got a picture of those golden lights
I swear that some of you were down there every night
Singing out of tune
Drinking in the Wreckage Room
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
