Peter Hammill - Central Hotel Lyrics
I found myself lying on the balcony,stripling terror, ***** to the bone;the secret asteroid jungle nearly done for me -I saw it all just a moment ago.I know I'd better watch out for the Central Hotel...I'm not going back.Repetition, superstition, singularity,though every cell in the body has changedthe walls move in well-accustomed hilarity -the circuit changes,but the joke stays the same.I know I'd better watch out for the Central HotelI think I'd better get out, I'm not feeling so well.And I won't be going back,not if I can help it.I can't help it, I can't help itif I still am what I was;I can't help it, I can't help it,can't stop the therefore becauseI can't help it.The grace of god shows I'll be going on, I'll be coming back.I know nothing of the miles of the marathon,I hear nothing of the footfall behind,I search for rythm and I find that I haven't oneslow motion in the runner's mind.I know I'd better watch out for the Central HotelI think I'd better get out, I'm not feeling so wellI know I'd better check out, but anyone here can tellI'll be coming back, I'll be back.I'm the Central Hotel
