Hotel Columbia
(Jesse Malin)
Well I’ve been strung out on a song
Or a place where I belong
As the lyrics start to fall
She’s in my bed I’m off the wall
Call me up call me up
Call me up Columbia
The sun goes down over Hyde Park
The concierge is tending bar
Meanwhile back across the pond
Now my friends are dads and moms
Have you gone so far
That you don’t need love?
It’s when you told me why
That you’ve had enough
I’ll be okay you’ll be okay
The Shining meets old Spinal Tap
While I take a disco nap
With my receiver off the hook
Another page in Nite Bob’s book
Have you gone so far that you
Don’t need love?
It’s when you told me why
That you’ve had enough
And you don’t look back
And you don’t come close
All your dope sick friends
Are hanging round like ghosts
I’ll be okay you’ll be okay
My Columbia
