The Hold Steady - Citrus lyrics

rate me

Hey citrus, hey liquor

i love it when you touch each other

hey whiskey, hey ginger

i come to you with rigid fingers

i see Judas in the hard eyes

of the boys who worked in the corners

i feel Jesus in the clumsiness of young and awkward lovers

hey barroom hey tavern

i find hope in all the souls you gather

hey citrus, hey liquor

i love it when we come together

i feel Jesus in the clumsiness of young and awkward lovers

I feel Judas in the long odds of the rackets on the corners

I feel jesus in the tenements of honest, nervous lovers

I feel Judas in the pistols and the pagers that come with all the powders

lost in fog and love and faith*less* fear

and I've had kisses that make Judas seem sincere

lost in fog and love and faith*less* fear

I've had kisses that make Judas seem sincere

Thanks to Dan (I mean seriously this song is easy) for these lyrics
