Hotel CalifornEU

Draghi singing ‘My Way’, cool wind in my hair

Warm smell of colitis, rising up through the air

Up ahead in the distance, I saw a grimmer twilight

My heart grew heavy and my bank balance slim

At the capital flight.

As I stood it was doomsday

I heard the mission bell

And I was thinking to myself,

“This could be Heaven or this could be Hell”

Then they went out to gamble, and they asked me to pay

There were voices down the corridor,

I thought I heard them say…

Welcome to the Hotel CalifornEU

Such a loveless farce (Such a loveless farce)

Such a bunch of arse

Credit balloons at the Hotel CalifornEU

Any time of year (Any time of year)

You will find it dear.

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends

She got a lot of needy applicants that she calls friends

How they prance in the graveyard, seeking yet more debt

Some finance to remember, some finance to forget.

So I called up Remainers,

“Please stop with that whine”

They said, “We haven’t had free spirits here since nineteen forty nine”

And still those voices are calling from far away,

Wake you up in the middle of the night

Just to hear them say…

Welcome to the Hotel CalifornEU

Such a loveless farce (Such a loveless farce)

Such a bunch of arse

They livin’ it up at the Hotel CalifornEU

Where are our allies ? (where are our allies ?)

Make sure you sanitize.

Juncker’s on the Riesling,

Pink champagne on ice

And he slurred “We are all just prisoners here, of our own device”

And in the EU’s chambers,

They gather for the feast

They stab it with their steely knives,

But they can’t stop expanding east.

Last thing I remember, I was

Running for the door

I had to find safe passage back

To the democracy I knew before

“We tax,” said the night man,

“We are programmed to deceive.

You can vote out any time you like,

But you can never Leave. “
