Lyrics
Verse 1
Six-thirty in the morning, get a wake-up call
If y’not already woken at five in the morn’
No knock, but they open the door
To see if you’re alive because they wanna be sure
The staff on day-shift are mostly alright
Though every couple o’weeks they go on strike
The security is always tight
‘Cause they lock you up at night
Chorus 1
Staying overnight inside the Hotel Leuven
Trip Advisor doesn’t recommend
All the meals are included at the Hotel Leuven
Please enjoy your ten-year, long-term stay
You shall pay
Verse 2
Got a bigger-than-a-minibar fridge and TV
Pool table, darts and the use of a gym
You can order a book or CD
Takes three months, but delivery’s free
You gotta shit in the same place you eat
Suppose you might say the toilet’s ‘en suite’
Free food, a room key
They provide the things you need
Chorus 1
Verse 3
There’s a lotta different people stayin’ in this place
And everybody’s got a story ‘bout how they were chased
People boast about their money and material gains
But ninety-nine percent of what they say is a fake
Nearly everyone is innocent
Nobody’s deserving of their punishment
Am I alone in this establishment?
The ‘only guilty man in Shawshank’
Chorus 1
Bridge
It is free, but it costs you everything
You’ll stay, no escaping
Till the Management say you’ve paid
But until that day…
Chorus 2
You are welcome here inside the Hotel Leuven
Trip Advisor doesn’t recommend
All the meals are included at the Hotel Leuven
Make the most of every single day
Enjoy your stay
Enjoy your stay
Enjoy your stay
