Karma Hotel Lyrics - S.i.o.s.o.s. Vol. 1: Hijacking The Planet - Spooks

(Ming Xia) 

Welcome....... 

To the....... 

Karma......... 

Hoooooooo.......... 

(x2) 

(First Verse) 

Karma Hotel lobby, and I'm lookin' for enlightenment 

Concierge, where can I go to find adventure and excitement? 

Played of all the casinos, bars, and orgies, they bore me 

Here's another twenty, now what you got for me? 

He stared at me hard, finally dipped in his drawer 

Flipped the elevator keys and said "Go to the fourteenth floor" 

So in a flash I was there, cold knock on the door 

Bombarded by cigar smoke, the smell of Hell and War 

And when the fog cleared, the scene was like an eerie nightmare 

"Come in, we've been waitin' on you for years" 

"You wanted adventure, now you got it boy, don't show me no tears," 

"This is the place where you face your desires and fears," 

In each of his hands was a revolver, forty-five in the left 

Twenty-two in his right 

Russian roulette's the game tonight 

And there's NO escape, so don't try to run 

But I'll fill your life with bliss if you're alive once the death wheel has spun 

"Choose your gun" 

Gimme the forty-five, I said with a smile 

"Here's a shiny silver bullet, might as well go out in style" 

Put one in the cylinder, spun it, aimed at my dome and slowly clicked it 

Now I feel the adrenheline rush that's got me so addicted 

Motivatin' me to play, a second time, then a third time 

Fourth time I clicked and popped 

BOOM! Money shot 

Next morning, cops found me, needle stickin' out my arm 

Peep the drama, another sad story at the Karma 

(Chorus: Ming Xia) 

Welcome to the Karma Hotel 

Looks like Heaven but could be Hell 

Where pleasant screams transform to yells 

And every suite casts its own spell 

(2x) 

(Second Verse) 

Peep the gamblin' scene 

Gettin' dough as he rambled the fiends 

Exotic queens dancin' with tamborines 

And the Gambler's theme 

One eye open, one eye scopin' 

Watchin' his gat, watchin' his back 

Watchin' his stack, watchin' his wrap 

Watchin' his deck, as people notice like 

"OH SHIT! Boy just won a hundred grand!" 

"Where? Where?" "Oh my God, at Table Seven, did you see him yet?" 

Look at his chips, all that green growin' like Chia Pets 

Two out the handle and he can't stop 

The more and more the fans flock, the more the dice out his hands drop 

Walk in the room, he's bettin' and makin' money and every table 

Women are sweatin' him like he was James Bond or Joe David 

Yeah, he's satisfied, he's in his element now 

To do this for the rest of his life is how it's goin' down 

So it seems like, he got his whole shit set 

But his son is gangbangin' in the park, holdin' a rain check 

Meanwhile, somehow, somethin' is kinda eerie 

About this place that he seems to be payin' a permanent visit to 

Every face he sees, expressionless, like a mannequin 

He really wants to leave, but stays cool, to avoid panickin' 

He's gettin' the same attention, but somethin' seems sorta different 

He's wrinklin' up, losin' weight, and his body's startin' to stiffen 

Now he notices years have passed in one night 

He made more cash than we could imagine, but never lived life 

(Chorus) 

(Third Verse: Ming Xia & amp) 

(Ming Xia) 

Since we're all trapped in, peace guys, see you later 

I'ma go to that red door near the elevator 

Triple nines on nails danglin' off the door 

Excuse me sir, I didn't notice you before 

Pleased to meet you, Macristo's the name 

Pretty young thing 

Come into my room, I'd like to play a game, it's called "Doom" 

Beat the friends and family 

Gotta give yourself to me 

By the way, what's your name? 

(Ming Xia) 

Eve 

Check the scenery 

(Ming Xia) 

Looks so happy, at the same time 

The way they're entwined seems so good it's a crime 

Believe in me as I believe in you, live it up tonight 

(Ming Xia) 

Well fuck it I feel I've got all of my life! 

So true, pleasure and pain, transform lust to thrust 

One night stands of hot sex, the bottle entrusts 

(Ming Xia) 

Oooh, invitation accepted, too good to reject it 

So I join in unprotected 

Expected, one life to live, don't respect it 

(Ming Xia) 

Respect what? 

Ooh, you poor child you've been neglected 

(Ming Xia) 

Cristo why do I feel so cold? 

It's like each time I climax you take a piece of my soul 

You could never leave, you made a pact with the Devil himself 

Infected in my family of trust, my daughter of lust 

(Ming Xia) 

So what you're tellin' me is I can't leave! 

And I'm trapped here for eternity! 

Oooooohhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! 

Chorus
