VERSE: Her mind is Tiffany twisted, She got a mercedes bends* She got alot of pretty pretty boys that she calls friends How they danced in the court yard sweet summer sweat Some dance to remember some dance to forget So I called up the captain; Please bring me my wine (he said) We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixtynine and still those voice are calling from far away Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say CHORUS: Welcome to the Hotel California. Such a lovely place, such a lovely face There's Plenty of room at the Hotel California Anytime of year,(anytime of year) You can find us here... VERSE: Mirrors on the ceiling; the pink champagne on ice (an she said) We are all just prisoners here , of our own device and in the master's chambers, They gathered for the feast They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast Last thing I remember, I was running for the door I had find the passage back to the place I was before "Relax" said the night man; we are programmed to receive You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave...
