A man in the mirror
Of a two-star motel in Oklahoma
Stands and stares
Lets the faucet run until the water's scalding hot
I wonder what the folks back home
Would think if they could see me now
A lit cigarette
And a half a glass quart of 3.2 Banquet
I lean on the rail
And flick the glowing cherry down to the parking lot
I wonder where the maid goes
When she clocks out at the end of the night?
All I know is that I hope her bed
Is more comfortable than the one I'm on tonight
