00:30I had to stop for the night, there she stood in the doorway with a mission bell. I was thinking to myself, this could be heaven or this could be hell.
00:45And she lit up a candle and she showed me the way. There were voices down that corridor, thought I heard them say,
00:58Welcome to the Hotel California. Such a lovely place, such a lovely place. Plenty of room at the Hotel California. Any time of year, you can find it here.
01:22My mind is stiff and it twisted. She got the Mercedes-Benz. She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys. She called friends.
01:35How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat. Some dance to remember, some dance to forget.
01:48So I called up the captain, please bring me my wine. She said, we haven't had that spirit here since 1969.
02:00And still those voices were calling from far away. Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say,
02:13Welcome to the hotel California. Such a lovely place. Such a lovely place. Living it up at the Hotel California. What a nice surprise.
02:33Bring your eyes. Bring your eyes. Mirrors on the ceiling. Pink champagne on ice. She said,
02:45We are all just prisoners here. Of our own device. And in the master's chamber. They gathered for their feet. They stab it with their steel knives. But they just can't kill the beast.
03:04The last thing I remember. I was running for the door. As if I'm on the bus, it passed to the place I was before.
03:17Relaxed every night, man. We are programmed to receive. You can check out any time you like. But you can never leave.
