On a dark desert highway, cold wind in my hair, warm smell of Calitas rising up through
the air.
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light.
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim.
I had to stop for the night.
There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell.
I was thinking to myself, this could be heaven or this could be hell.
Then she lit up the candle, then she showed me the way.
There were voices down that corridor, I thought I heard them say,
"Welcome to the Hotel California."
Such a lovely place, such a lovely place, such a lovely face.
Any time of year, you can find it here Her mind is definitely twisted, she's got a Mercedes Benz
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends
I've been dancing in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, I dance to forget.
So I called up the captain, please bring me my wine.
He said, we haven't had that spirit here since 1959.
Can't steal those voices that call us from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the old town, California
Such a lovely place, such a lovely place
Such a lovely place
Oh, we're living outside the old town, California
What a nice surprise, what a nice surprise, bring your alibis.
Mirrors on the ceiling, we got pink champagne on ice.
She said, "We all lost a prisoner near a morose invite."
In the master chamber, they gathered for defeat.
They dab it with their silly knives, but they just can't kill a bee.
Last thing I remember, I was runnin' through the door.
I had to find a path this fast to the place I was before.
Relax, there's a nightmare we are programmed to receive.
