Entella Hotel - Peter Case[00:00:00]
Well there was no way of telling on the first day in town[00:00:16]
How far it was from the greyhoud station to midnight and always[00:00:20]
He checked into a room at the entella hotel[00:00:31]
Got used to the gloom and the smell[00:00:36]
And the thrill of the sight of the old men laying in hallways[00:00:39]
So you go up broadway where the sailors all rome[00:00:47]
And the girls give themselves names like lola estelle[00:00:55]
And nicole[00:00:59]
They work at a place called the garden of earthly delights[00:01:03]
And the tourists come in from all over to take in the sights[00:01:10]
In the sweet summer heat nick the cop walks the beat[00:01:18]
Hear him coming from way down the street[00:01:23]
Drawing lines in the dirt with his feet[00:01:26]
Daring kids to cross it[00:01:30]
Now all the same winos i still see in my dreams[00:01:35]
Tighten up and start making scenes[00:01:39]
And here comes nick on this wanker[00:01:42]
The ones are whispering toss it[00:01:45]
Nick picks it up and looks for who's needing it most[00:01:51]
And the ones on the lamb are all getting ready to roast[00:01:58]
And the afternoon goes on forever like some drunken bum[00:02:06]
Til the sun finally drowns[00:02:14]
Neath the bridge and night has begun[00:02:16]
Down by the bay the ships horns are blasting the fog[00:02:22]
And we stumble and mutter run through the gutter like dogs[00:02:30]
We've one card to play we're dying to play it each night[00:02:38]
In the back of a place called the garden of earthly delights[00:02:45]
High in your room the mirror falls with a roar[00:02:54]
Stating at pieces that lay broke on the floor[00:02:58]
And there's a knock on the door and the guy says[00:03:01]
There's a call on the phone[00:03:04]
You figure nobody knows your room or your name[00:03:09]
Guess someone's just playing a game[00:03:13]
So you answer it guarded expecting to still be alone[00:03:16]
It's nicole she says she's getting off early tonight[00:03:25]
Her and the boss just had a terrible fight[00:03:33]
And would you come down and meet her would that be alright[00:03:40]
So you walk in the back door[00:03:47]
The first thing you hear is her song[00:03:50]
At the garden of earthly delights[00:03:54]
The show must go on[00:03:58]
You've got one card to play[00:04:02]
And you're dying to play it each night[00:04:05]
With your back to the bar at the garden of earthly delights[00:04:10]
You've got one card to play[00:04:18]
And you're dying to play it each night[00:04:20]
In the back of a place called the garden of earthly delights[00:04:25]
