Lyrics Frank Zappa – The Motel Lobby

Text:

includes a quote from Blue Moon (Hart/Rodgers)

Howard
Sure, man, and I’ll go until two and I’m gonna be in there supporting ’em, in fact I’ll sit in with those guys. I’m into it, I’ll sing a little «Blue Moon . . . »
Mark

Hey man . . .
Dick
Listen, this is a nice place, man, it’s got a beautiful room . . .
Howard
Don’t give me that man, it’s plastic city, it bites, the guy behind . . .
Dick
Relax and enjoy some of the wo-, wonderments of nature . . .
Howard
No no no no, the guy behind the desk is a werewolf. You can’t give me any of that, the chick over there’s been dead for twenty minutes. I’m hip to this place, I’ve seen ’em in my sleep, man
Dick
Hey, listen, I’ve never seen you this way, man
Howard
No, man, I’m not keyed at all
Dick
You’re unpleasant
Howard
I’m not unpleasant! I can’t wait to sign the card and check into my little closet. Unpack my leather cape, hang it up on the wall, get out the washboard, put away my nitty books and get into it! I’m gonna go down and cruise in that lounge, man, I’m gonna have . . .
Dick
Watch this, it’s right in there, just step right in
Howard
I’m gonna take a look

?
Hello, Frank . . .
Howard
Ooohoowwoh!
Mark

Hey, what is this, man? Is this the can-can room?
Howard
This place waits for us, man
Mark
This place waits us! Is there a piano?
Howard
There’s a juke box with a lotta hokie country songs on it. I am coming in here and getting blotto in about ten minutes
Mark
Oh, man, me too!
