At Amber

At Amber - Morrissey

I'm calling you from the foyer

Of the Sands Hotel

Where the men and the women

Are acquainted quite well

And the drunkards

Keep on drinking

And oh my room is cold

I'm disputing the bill

I will sleep in my clothes

And you my invalid friend

You slam the receiver when you say

"If I had your limbs for a day

I would steam away"

I'm calling you from the foyer

Of this awful hotel

Where the slime and the grime

And I cannot or I do not

And oh my room is cold

And I'm envying you never

Having to choose

And you my invalid friend

You slam the receiver when you say

"If I had your limbs for a day

I would steam away"

I'm calling you from the foyer

Of the Sands Hotel

It's not low life it's just people

Having a good time

And oh my invalid friend

Oh my invalid friend

In our different ways we are

The same
