| [00:12.710] |
On a dark desert highway, |
| [00:15.540] |
cool wind in my hair |
| [00:18.640] |
Warm smell of colitas, |
| [00:21.480] |
rising up through the air |
| [00:24.510] |
Up ahead in the distance, |
| [00:27.400] |
I saw a shimmering light |
| [00:30.480] |
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim |
| [00:33.580] |
I had to stop for the night |
| [00:36.620] |
There he stood in the doorway; |
| [00:39.500] |
I heard the mission bell |
| [00:42.540] |
And I was thinking to myself, |
| [00:45.380] |
This could be Heaven or |
| [00:46.620] |
this could be Hell |
| [00:48.710] |
Then she lit up a candle |
| [00:50.850] |
and she showed me the way |
| [00:54.580] |
There were voices down the corridor, |
| [00:57.520] |
I thought I heard them say... |
| [01:00.650] |
Welcome to the Hotel California |
| [01:05.880] |
Such a lovely place |
| [01:08.770] |
Such a lovely face |
| [01:12.260] |
Plenty of room at the Hotel California |
| [01:17.940] |
Any time of year |
| [01:20.880] |
you can find it here |
| [01:24.620] |
His mind is Tiffany-twisted, |
| [01:27.700] |
He got the Mercedes bends |
| [01:30.490] |
He got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, |
| [01:33.870] |
He calls friends |
| [01:37.070] |
How they dance in the courtyard, |
| [01:39.260] |
sweet summer sweat. |
| [01:42.600] |
Some dance to remember, |
| [01:45.580] |
some dance to forget |
| [01:48.620] |
So I called up the Captain, |
| [01:51.160] |
'Please bring me my wine' |
| [01:53.990] |
He said,'We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine' |
| [02:00.670] |
And still those voices are calling from far away, |
| [02:06.640] |
Wake you up in the middle of the night |
| [02:09.680] |
Just to hear them say... |
| [02:12.620] |

What a nice surprise, |
| [02:32.860] |

| [02:36.840] |
Mirrors on the ceiling, |
| [02:39.630] |
The pink champagne on ice |
| [02:42.020] |
And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device' |
| [02:48.530] |
And in the master's chambers, |
| [02:51.120] |
They gathered for the feast |
| [02:54.650] |
The stab it with their steely knives, |
| [02:57.190] |
But they just can't kill the beast |
| [03:00.620] |
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door |
| [03:06.610] |
I had to find the passage back |
| [03:09.100] |
To the place I was before |
| [03:12.640] |
'Relax,'said the night man, |
| [03:14.870] |
We are programmed to receive. |
| [03:18.610] |
You can checkout any time you like, |
| [03:21.200] |
