Camelot Motel Lyrics - Singles - Mary Gauthier

(Mary Gauthier/Keri Powers) 

He's lying on the double bed acting self-assured 

In his T-shirt ana his underwear he's barely said a word 

She pours a cup of coffee lights the day's first cigarette 

Picks up the phone and call her kids from the motel kitchenette 

There's two guys moving slowly in the room across the hall 

Both their heads are pounding from last night's alcohol 

They met in a chat room then they took it here 

They both go by pseudonyms and soon they'll disappear 

Cheaters, liars, outlaws, and fallen angels 

Come looking for the grace from which they fell 

They hold on to each other in the darkness 

The morning light is hell at the Camelot Motel

He met her at the pool hall the guys told him she was touched 

Now she's ranting and she's raving about the Devil, Christ and such 

He's thinking about the highway and the way she begged last night 

He's wishing he had blown this dump before the morning light 

Cheaters, liars, outlaws, and fallen angels Come 

looking for the grace from which they fell 

They hold on to each other in the darkness 

The morning light is hell at the Camelot Motel 

Lancelot and Guenivere bang their bedpost in my ear 

Neon lights the castle walls bug lights in the entry halls 

I lie awake with a troubled mind thinking 'bout what I left behind 

Me and the royal denizens got damn good reasons for our sins 

There's a couple counting money in room 124 

They're wrapping 10's and 20's throwing 1's down on the floor 

They're strung out and nervous, they jump at every little sound 

He keeps picking up his pistol then putting his pistol down

They hold on to each other
