Arctic Monkeys – The Afternoon's Hat Lyrics 12 years ago
This song has a sort of abstruse lyric. But it seems to talk about a relationship with a prositute, maybe a stripper.

We can see by the third strophe, where Alex sings something about someone taking off clothes/shirt(for money: prostitution) and not giving a shit about it.

When the song tell us about the avenues, it would be representing what would be her "workplace"

The "ripples on the ceilling" would probably mean a hectic sex, but it only makes sense to me when "waste away the evening" means ''overnight love''.

Also, "the unsugared taste" could be referred to the "avenues", a place the ''male lover'' repudiates.

The Afternoon's Hat itselfs seems to me as a way to call hidden sex.

Arcade Fire – (Antichrist Television Blues) Lyrics 13 years ago
It's called "Blues" because the song itself has this blues chords progression (on the guitar at least): G C D. There are some chords variations, but still sort of a blues.
