Hotel in the Sky
There’s no rest upon this planet
We walk a rocky road
And stumbling at the
cross roads
Don’t know which way
to go
If you’re lonely on
your journey
And have a heavy load
Your travail is no
longer
There’s a place where
you can go
The neon sign is
flashing
The doorway’s made of
gold
So come into the foyer
and
save your aching soul!
The beds all have
vibrators
The sheets are
starched and clean
There’s a
complimentary
bottle of shampoo and Listerine
You’ll never lift a
finger
You won’t have to do a
thing
Get along home
children, children
To Hotel Gloryland
Get along home
children,
To the hotel in the
sky
Get along home
children,
You don’t have to ask
Get along home
To the hotel that’s
the best
Come into the dinning
hall
Come and take your
seat
The table legs are
bending,
There’s more than you
can eat!
There is a gourmet
head chef,
10 cooks and
well-heeled staff
And when you’re done
imbibing,
They tell jokes to
make you laugh
When it’s late and
time for bed
Lay down to take your
rest
You’ll want to sleep
forever
In your celestial
cloud-lined nest
Just close your eyes
and slumber
And way down deep you
slide
Don’t worry about the
checkout
Just charge it when
you die
Get along home
children, children
Come on and get your
fill
At the Hotel Gloryland
Never worry ‘bout the
bill
Get along home
children,
Come rest, get off the
road
When you checkout from
the Gloryland
Just charge it when
you go
