Hotel California-The Eagles

Hotel California
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hairWarm smell of colitas rising up through the airUp ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering lightMy head grew heavy, and my sight grew dimI had to stop for the night There she stood in the doorway - I heard the mission bellAnd I was thinking to myself, this could be Heaven or this could be HellThen she lit up a candle, and she showed me the wayThere were voices down the corridorI thought I heard them sayWelcome to the Hotel CaliforniaSuch a lovely place, such a lovely placeSuch a lovely facePlenty of room at the Hotel CaliforniaAny time of year, any time of yearYou can find it here Her mind is Tiffany twisted, she's got the Mercedes bendsShe's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys she calls friendsHow they dance in the courtyard - sweet summer sweatSome dance to rememberSome dance to forgetSo I called up the Captain, please bring me my wine, 'n' he saidWe haven't had that spirit here since 1969And still those voices are calling from far awayWake you up in the middle of the nightJust to hear them sayWelcome to the Hotel CaliforniaSuch a lovely place, such a lovely place Such a lovely faceThey're livin' it up at the Hotel CaliforniaWhat a nice surprise, what a nice surpriseBring your alibisMirrors on the ceiling and pink champagne on ice, and she saidWe are all just prisoners here of our own deviceAnd in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feastThey stabbed it with their steely knivesBut they just can't kill the beastLast thing I remember I was running for the doorI had to find the passage back to the place I was before"Relax," said the night man, "We are programmed to receiveYou can check out any time you likeBut you can never leave"
