lyrics

This place, was once alive, but as the highway died
The guests dried up, they’ve gone elsewhere, the motel fell prey to disrepair
It’s just me and Mother now, it’s such a pleasure that you came around
I’ll take your bags to Cabin 1, you’ll soon see that I’m a model son
Though admitting it brings me pain, through the peephole I watched you change
You’re the girl I’ve been dreaming of, through the peephole I fell in love
Now that you’re settled in, how about some sandwiches?
You speak so well, you’re so polite, I’m so glad you’re gonna stay the night
I never want you to leave
These feelings grip me, am I naive?
We could be happy you see
You, me and Mother makes three
I’m not, a maniac, I just couldn’t stop Mother’s attack
But don’t we all go mad sometimes? That’s why I covered up her crimes
The private dick, he had to die, stuck like a needle in a prying eye
But now you’re back, a second chance - Lila my dear, you must pay in advance
Though admitting it brings me pain, through the peephole I watched her change
You’re the girl I’ve been dreaming of, sent to me from Heaven above
I never want you to leave
These feelings grip me, am I naive?
We could be happy you see
You, me and Mother makes three
