Story behind the song
An anti-love song for a lonely hotel room.
Lyrics
Travelodge   It was a nice bar But I don’t want to sleep there Like a lump on someone’s Sofa chair So I drive the car To the outskirts of town Travelodge Jewel of the crown   There’s a tea pot With sugar and cream There’s towels all folded At the seams The bed don’t squeak And neither does the floor There’s a lock Upon the door   It’s like paradise There’s so much we could do It’s got everything a man could want Except for you   There’s a shower It’s en suite There’s a nice clean Toilet seat Plenty of room To play guitar There’s a phone, a desk Here we are   Except the only pair here Is a single pair of shoes It’s got everything a man could want Except for you   Checkout’s tomorrow At eleven You can order breakfast 24/7 There’s your picture Long and lean There upon my Laptop screen   And all I can say Is boo hoo hoo ‘Cause it’s got everything a man could want Except for you
