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 kill her just 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 Somebody else is me Someone 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 road map That I can never see
But, it's me Someone was there, it was me By named Araby
But, it's me Somebody else is me Someone named Araby
