Hey! Salutations, pain is karma Bent joints in fighting words Got his mean streak from his mother Ha ha ha Now Love Boats paint his liver With eyes on the city lights Collapsin' on the upbeats Or relaxin' for the night He steps into a crazy hotel The desk clerk hands him soap-on-a-rope What does he mean by this? Bellhop takes his flashlight Takes John up to his room Va-va-va-voom this is a sweet life Anthrax on the couch

We're here to entertain you Or have you seen this episode We're the ancient order of robot dolls We're putting you at the controls Well-well-well-welcome to Hell Hotel Well-well-well-welcome to Hell Hotel

Sports cars and the gamblin' John's winning every night Well there's certain smells John can't repel But Momma, it can't be right He bolts awake to laughing But no one's in his room And the big white man doesn't understand Why John can't smile no more

We're here to make you happy That's all that we are programmed for But you say this pleasure's a pain for you Sebastian C. could tell you more Well-well-well-welcome to Hell Hotel Well-well-well-welcome to Hell Hotel
