Room 29

Help yourself to pretzels

Help yourself to the minibar

I couldn´t help myself

I read a self-help book

 

Now I´ve gone too far

Too far gone. Unrecognisable

Frightened of the message light

On the phone on the bedside table

 

Where is Gilligans Island?

Where do germs come from?

Don´t open the curtains

I'm allergic to sun...

 

Room 29 I heard them say

Is the only place to stay

Room 29 is where I´ll face myself alone

 

A comfortable venue for a nervous breakdown

Front row seat for a psychic shakedown

I just had to laugh

Got so screwed up

Is there anything sadder than a hotel room that hasn´t been fucked in?

I´d like to get a piece of that

But I need an introduction....

 

I heard an actress used to party in this place and do drugs off the piano

If I lick, will it still taste?

A lifetime of spectating leaves you impotent

Unable to join in without a frame of reference

Needing to watch the playback after the event

 

Room 29 I heard them say

Is the only place to stay

Room 29 is where I´ll face myself alone

 

Holly has never grown here

Although someone once tried

But it died

Almost immediately

The climate was too dry

 

This whole place is built on a lie

Yeah, but what a lie:

The kind of lie that has the entire western world agog

`Cause no one ever got turned on by the Whole Earth Catalogue

Unhealthy, unfair and extermely entertaining

 

Room 29 is where I´ll face myself alone

Alone.
