She Was A Hotel Detective |

Nighttime lady, she says maybe In the all-night laundromat Wait one minute, I have seen her She's a billionaire She was a hotel detective But now she's gotten promoted I don't think it was the money She didn't care about expensive things No furs or pearls or fancy cars or diamond rings She was a hotel detective But now she's better connected She didn't have to change anything, just the stencil on her window She used to be quite a lady She drove the underworld crazy But now she goes insane in her way when it suits her occupation She read that motel directive It told her she was defective I guess she found an easier way up the ladder and she took it Now that lady is running the world Is she lonely? She's the only girl in this back alleyway Will she shoot you? She won't have to You're already dead She was a hotel detective But now she's gotten promoted I don't think it was the money She didn't care about expensive things No furs or pearls or fancy cars or diamond rings She was a hotel detective But now she's better connected She didn't have to change anything, just the stencil on her window She used to be quite a lady She drove the underworld crazy But now she goes insane in her way when it suits her occupation She read that motel directive It told her she was defective I guess she found an easier way up the ladder and she took it Now that lady is running the world |
