"The No Hotel" lyrics - GORDON LIGHTFOOT

Down around the No Hotel, look for me, they know me well.
Travelers come and travelers go down around the Hotel No.
If you choose the No Hotel, be prepared to run pell mell,
Be another burnt out shell, you checked in the No Hotel.

Down around the No Hotel, water there don't flow so well.
Problems come and problems go, freezing shower say hello.
If you choose the No Hotel, the bellhop never rings the bell,
Why there's another ne'er do well, just checked in the No Hotel.

Down around the No Hotel, look for me, the human shell.
Strangers moving to and fro all around the Hotel No.
When dining at the No Hotel, there's caterers who cater not,
And waiters who don't wait a lot, you've checked in the No Hotel.

Living at the No Hotel, just another ne'er do well,
Seasons ebb and seasons flo down around the Hotel Ho.
Snug in your No Hotel room, see the little critters fly
Above the bed sheets telling lies, you've checked in the No Hotel.

Down around the No Hotel, look for me, they know me well.
Travelers come and travelers go, it's the only world they know.
If you choose the No Hotel, the bellhop never rings the bell,
Now he's another burnt out shell, you've checked in the No Hotel.
