lyrics

(the good hotel)

He books the good one now, the one with marble in the hall
Which is meant to be an upgrade and it works out as a cage
Because the cheap one had a fire door that opened on the mall
And the good one's got a concierge who knows me now by age

And there is a kind of luxury that makes a woman smaller
And I have got very good at making myself small

The good hotel, the good hotel, and everything is white
And I'm the only thing in here that anybody rents
The good hotel, the good hotel, and I look right, I look right
And looking right in a room like this is nine-tenths of the sense

I liked the fire door. I liked being able to leave.
That's the whole difference and I don't know what to believe.

The good hotel, the good hotel, and everything is white
And I'm the only thing in here that anybody rents
The good hotel, the good hotel, and I look right, I look right
And looking right in a room like this is nine-tenths of the sense

(nine-tenths of the sense)
