Dyke Bars Never Last Lyrics by Sapphic Lasers

Ache

2018

[Verse]
Well, I remember when I was 19
And I went to a bar in the big city
Far from my town in Montreal
Feeling summer turning red and burning into fall
I had no friends, only whisky shots
That I took down fast to drown my thoughts
Country shoes and shaky hands
And a subculture I didn’t understand
And first kisses they line the walls
And last kisses cover bathroom stalls
And it was there that I saw my first femme
And I never fell in love with a straight girl again
And I remember when that bar up and closed cause of money
Or problems, nobody knows
I still feel the tears in my eyes
And an over sullen butch ‘bout twicе my size said
[Chorus]
Dyke bars nevеr last
Kid don’t you know that
Dyke bars never last
And don’t you know that
Dyke bars never last
Kid, don’t you know that
Dyke bars never last
[Verse]
I moved to the Bay when I was 23
With a broken heart and no money
Out at night and looking for some fun
So I fucked you in the back of the Lexington
Put your songs on the jukebox, baby
And I promise I will sing along
And we will dance like we’re running out of time
And nothing ever could go wrong
Putting all your songs on the jukebox
Oh that’s the way, oh that’s the way
To sink a quarter right into my heart
Putting all your songs on the jukebox
Oh that’s the way, oh that’s the way
To sink a quarter right into my heart tonight
[Chorus]
Dyke bars never last
And don’t you know that
Dyke bars never last
And don’t you know that
Dyke bars never last
And don’t you know that
Dyke bars never last
[Verse]
The Lexington just closed for good
And none of my friends live in my neighbourhood anymore
I turned to you, sugar, say
Where you wanna go
Oh, and you say hey boy I just don’t know
[Chorus]
Now that we’re older we say
Dyke bars never last
Dyke bars never last
Now that we’re older we say
Dyke bars never last
Now that we’re older we say
Dyke bars never last
Now that we’re older we say
[Bridge]
Well it was good while it was
Oh, honey you were good while you were
Honey you were good while you were
Oh, honey you were good while you were
[Chorus]
Dyke bars never last
They never last
Dyke bars never last
Honey you were good while you were
Dyke bars never last
You were good while you were
Dyke bars never last
Oh, honey you were good while you were
