Hotel California

just a fantasy, inspired by the MH Café
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air		 Welcome to the Hotel California(MH Café)...
Welcome to the Hotel California(MH Café)...		 This could be heaven
This could be heaven
And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'		 you can find it here
you can find it here		 at the Hotel California (MH Café)
at the Hotel California (MH Café)
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget		 Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted		 'Relax' said the nightman
'Relax' said the nightman
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Wake you up in the middle of the night		 She got the Mercedes Benz
She got the Mercedes Benz		 So I called up the Captain, 'Please bring me my wine'
So I called up the Captain, 'Please bring me my wine'
They gathered for the feast
They gathered for the feast		 Then she lit up a candle ...
Then she lit up a candle ...		 He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969'
He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969'
and she showed me the way
and she showed me the way		 They just can't kill the beast
They just can't kill the beast		 She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys,
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys,
There she stood in the doorway
There she stood in the doorway		 And still those voices are calling from far away
And still those voices are calling from far away		 In the Master's chamber
In the Master's chamber
Just to hear them say
Just to hear them say		 What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis		 They livin' it up at the MH Café
They livin' it up at the MH Café
I had to stop for the night
I had to stop for the night		 Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place		 I heard the mission bell
I heard the mission bell
Plenty of room
Plenty of room		 Up ahead in the distance,
Up ahead in the distance,		 My head grew heavy...
My head grew heavy...
down the corridor
down the corridor		 I had to find the passage back
I had to find the passage back		 We are programmed to receive
We are programmed to receive
I thought I heard them say...
I thought I heard them say...		 Any time of year...
Any time of year...		 You can check out any time you like
You can check out any time you like
Such a lovely face
Such a lovely face		 Welcome to the Hotel California
Welcome to the Hotel California		 And my sight grew dimmer
And my sight grew dimmer
there were voices
there were voices		 And I was thinking to myself
And I was thinking to myself		 but you can never leave
but you can never leave
such a lovely place
such a lovely place		 that she calls friends
that she calls friends		 He said 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969'
He said 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969'
