Hotel California - Eagles
On a dark desert highway,
cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
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
And I was thinkin' to myself,
This could be Heaven
or this could be Hell
Then she lit up a candle,
and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
(such a lovely place),
such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (any time of year),
you can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted,
she got the Mercedes Benz
She got a lot of pretty pretty boys,
she calls friends
How they danced in the courtyard,
sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember,
some dance to forget
So I called up the captain;
Please bring me my wine
(He said), "We haven't had that
spirit here since 1969"
And still those voices are
calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle
of the night,
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
(such a lovely place),
such a lovely face
They livin' it up
at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
(what a nice surprise),
bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling;
the pink champagne on ice
(and she said)
We are all just prisoners here,
of our own device
And in the master's chambers,
they gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
but they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember,
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage
back to the place I was before
"Relax" said the night man;
we are programmed to receive
You can check out any time you like
but you can never leave"

Piano Man - Billy Joel
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
He says,
"Son, can you play me a memory?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet
and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
La la la dee dee dah
La la dee dee dah dah dum
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or
to light up your smoke
But there's someplace
that he'd rather be
He says,
"Bill, I believe this is killing me"
As the smile ran away from his face
"Well I'm sure that
I could be a movie star
if I could get out of this place"
Oh la la la dee dee dah
La la dee dee dah dah dum
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy
who's still in the navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
as the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink
they call loneliness
but it's better than drinkin' alone
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
and you've got us feelin' alright
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
and the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me
they've been comin' to see
to forget about life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
and the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar
and put bread in my jar and say,
"Man, what are you doin' here?"
Oh la la la dee dee dah
La la dee dee dah dah dum
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
and you've got us feelin' alright
