At Amber - Morrissey
I'm calling you from the foyer
Of the Sands Hotel
Where the men and the women
Are acquainted quite well
And the drunkards
Keep on drinking
And oh my room is cold
I'm disputing the bill
I will sleep in my clothes
And you my invalid friend
You slam the receiver when you say
"If I had your limbs for a day
I would steam away"
I'm calling you from the foyer
Of this awful hotel
Where the slime and the grime
And I cannot or I do not
And oh my room is cold
And I'm envying you never
Having to choose
And you my invalid friend
You slam the receiver when you say
"If I had your limbs for a day
I would steam away"
I'm calling you from the foyer
Of the Sands Hotel
It's not low life it's just people
Having a good time
And oh my invalid friend
Oh my invalid friend
In our different ways we are
The same
