Frank Zappa – Hotplate Heaven At The Green Hotel Lyrics  Share

From Frank Zappa's album: Broadway The Hard Way

[Stadthalle, Vienna, Austria
May 8, 1988
&
Rudi-Sedlmeyer Sporthalle, Munich, Germany
May 9, 1988]

I used to have a job
An^, I was doin^, fairly well
Depression came along
An^, everybody start to yell
"Where^,d they go, them good ol^, days,
^,An all that crap we used to sell?"
Now I^,m in Hot-Plate Heaven,
at the Green Hotel

Republicans is fine,
If you^,re a multi-millionaire
Democrats is fair,
If all you own is what you wear
Neither of ^,em^,s REALLY right,
^,Cause neither of ^,em CARE
^,Bout that Hot-Plate Heaven,
^,Cause they ain^,t been there

They really oughta go
^,N find out how the hall-way smell -
They^,d benefit to know
^,Bout what the bums in there could tell
(I guess we^,re only dreamin^,,
But I s^,pose it^,s just as well
That^,s ALL you get to dream

Up in the Green Hotel)

Nature didn^,t put me here,
An^, neither did my fate -
It musta been some evil ol^,
Republican candidate!
He^,s over there in Washington,
But I wish he was in HELL
^,Cause I^,m in Hot-Plate Heaven
At the Green Hotel

Things is slightly better now;
They hope we will forget
The misery of ^,TRICKLE DOWN^,,
An^, jelly-bean etiquette
The Regal Presidential Style
Has simply not worn well,
But neither has my rags,
Up in the Green Hotel

(I said) the Green Hotel
(I mean) the Green Hotel
(Been there once) the Green Hotel
(An^, gone again) the Green Hotel

Neither has my rags
Up in the Green Hotel

Pass me the dog food!
