Текст песни: Entella Hotel + перевод

Well there was no way of telling on the first day in town

How far it was from the Greyhound station to midnight and always

He checked into a room at the Entella hotel

Got used to the gloom and the smell

And the thrill of the sight of the old men laying in hallways

So you go up Broadway where the sailors all rome

And the girls give themselves names like Lola, Estelle, and Nicole

They work at a place called The Garden of Earthly Delights

And the tourists come in from all over to take in the sights

In the sweet summer heat, Nick the cop walks the beat

You can hear him coming from way down the street

Drawing lines in the dirt with his feet

Daring kids to cross it

Now all the same winos I still see in my dreams

Tighten up and start making scenes

And here comes nick on this wanker and the old ones are whispering «toss it.»

Nick picks it up and looks for who’s needing it most

And the ones on the lamb are all getting ready to roast

And the afternoon goes on forever like some drunken bum

‘Til the sun finally drowns ‘neath the bridge and night has begun

Down by the bay, the ships horns are blasting the fog

And we stumble and mutter, run through the gutter like dogs

We’ve one card to play, we’re dying to play it each night

In the back of a place called The Garden of Earthly Delights

High in your room, the mirror falls with a roar

Stating at pieces that lay broke on the floor

And there’s a knock on the door and the guy says there’s a call on the phone

You figure nobody knows your room or your name

Guess someone’s just playing a game

So you answer it guarded expecting to still be alone

It’s Nicole she says she’s getting off early tonight

Her and the boss just had a terrible fight

And would you come down and meet her, would that be alright?

So you walk in the back door, and the first thing you hear is her song

At The Garden of Earthly Delights, the show must go on

You’ve got one card to play, and you’re dying to play it each night

With your back to the bar at the Garden of Earthly Delights

You’ve got one card to play, and you’re dying to play it each night

In the back of a place called the Garden of Earthly Delights
