Uh this hotel rooms gotta lotta stuff
Laundry bag and a shoe shine cloth
Thirty two hangers and a touch tone phone
Well a light that comes on when I aint home
I aint home
I aint home
You better leave a message cause
I aint home
They got an air conditioner for when Im hot
A radiator for when Im not
Two big chairs sittin side by side
With a holy Bible and the tv guide
Tv guide
The tv guide
Great God almighty
Its the tv guide
I gotta second story view from curb to curb
I gotta sign that reads "do not disturb"
A monogrammed towel and a bucket of ice
A chest of drawers and a mirror that lies
Mirror that lies
A mirror that lies
That couldnt be me
In the gorilla disguise
They got a room service menu for food and drink
A porcelain throne and an aluminum sink
Two big pillows to rest my head
A magic fingers and a king-size bed
Put in a quarter
Turn out the light
Magic fingers makes ya feel alright
Uh feel alright
Feel alright
Magic fingers makes you feel alright
Uh this ol hotels all right with me
They pay the postage if you lose the key
This hotel rooms gotta lot of stuff
But I do believe Ive had enough
Called my baby said dont you pout
Im packin my bags and Im checkin out
Just as soon as you hang up the telephone
Stick a candle in the window Im comin home
Comin home
Uh comin home
Stick a candle in the window
Im comin home
Whoa comin home
Comin home
Stick a candle in the window
Im comin home
-- spoken: "thank you boys"
