CHECKOUT TIME

the front desk I gave 'em my new name
my old name don't seem real to me
anyway it's all a game
just like the President on TV
I've checked into a hundred hotel rooms
tonight I have the honeymoon suite
a big Jacuzzi and a balcony with a view
a heart shaped bed with blood red sheets

(chorus)
and He chose me
I don't know why
He chose this for me
He chose me
I don't know why
He chose this for me
called me out by my new name
checkout time, alright


and no one's gonna come knocking
no one knows it's me in here
except the housekeeper when I buzz her
she'll bring fresh towels and a case of beer
so I'll suck down my ritual supper
then I'll shower my itchy skin
then I'll phone my fortune teller
find out if the fix is in

(chorus)


so I'll polish up my rifle
bless each bullet with a kiss
stare for hours out the window
waiting for someone I can't miss
I am the hand of retribution
I am the cobra coiled to strike
a-waiting til I get my signal
I wonder if tonight's the night

(chorus)
