Gun Club

The Gun Club were an American post-punk band from Los Angeles that existed from 1979 to 1996. Created and led by singer-songwriter and guitarist Jeffrey Lee Pierce, they were notable as one of the first bands in the punk rock subculture to incorporate influences from blues, rockabilly, and country music. The Gun Club has been called a "tribal psychobilly blues" band, as well as initiators of the punk blues sound cowpunk – "He (Pierce) took Robert Johnson and pre-war acoustic blues and 'punkified' it. Up until then bands were drawing on Iggy & The Stooges and the New York Dolls but he took it back so much further for inspiration." more »

I can feel the filth is coming

I can see it moving in

from a window with dirty hands

and coming back again,

yes, the waitress wants to kill me

but, I'd rather kill her all the same

she better not look at me

or I'll do it again,

but,     it's me

someone was there, it was me

someone named Araby

Now, the bassist hates the drummer

and the drummer hates his wife

see her again? Run away, it will always be alright,

Shall we go back to the motel?

no wait! Let's run away.

spend all night in Paradise Bar

until it goes away,

but,     it's me

someone was there, it was me

someone named Araby

but,     it's me

someone else is me

somebody named Araby

Rain just slaps our faces

colors me to here

where do we go? Where's the train?

with eyes still shaking with fear,

I can see the lights are coming

but, I'm sure they're not for me

it's written on the roadmap

that I can never see,

but,     it's me

someone was there, it was me

someone named Araby

but,     it's me

somebody else is me

someone named Araby
