Hotel Bar Butter
lyrics by Nanon Turner
There was one day in particular
when you looked creepy and sinister
I knew, I knew you had a lot on your mind
I suggested a car trip
cause you like car trips
I thought it would help you unwind
There was no discussion about dinner or a rest stop to pee
I just drove and drove and drove
about as far away as I could get from here
without leaving the continental United States.
Let's go to a hotel, let's go far away
there's no telling how long we might have to stay
we can swim and eat and we can watch cable t.v.
we can quit our jobs and drink incessantly.
Don't like hotels or strange beds
this is the very last thing that you said
and then I had to hit you on the head
I just drove and drove and drove
about as far away as I could get from here
without leaving the continental United States.
Let's go to a hotel, let's go far away
there's no telling how long we might have to stay
we can swim and eat and we can watch cable t.v.
we can quit our jobs and drink incessantly.
We can take as much free stuff as we can fit into our bags
towels and soap and those little shampoo containers
and we can order room service
and take all the silverware
and the hotel bar butter
hotel bar butter
take take take take take take
take take take take take take
from this world that is taking from me
from this world that is taking from me.
