I checked into the room and i checked the view
And then i locked and chained the door
I had time to kill i had space to fill
Like a prisoner on the floor
But then the silence broke, there’s a woman
Screaming down the hall
And i wondered what was going on
Here at the notell hotel
So i killed the light and i slipped the chain
Took a peek into the hall
I was just in time to see the waiter trip
And drop the dinner on the floor
But the bellboy smiled as the elevator started to fall
And i wondered what was going on
Down at the notell hotel
Ooh, i love a mystery (cover up and intrigue)
Life can be a thriller, a fantasy of everything i see
Ooh, how i love a mystery (turned up raincoats)
Secret agents, waiting for the missing clue
At a rendezvous
I heard the sound of feet and i looked out to
Meet a girl i knew i’d seen before
She had the kind of looks, you see in dirty books
And she was dripping on the floor
She was taking a shower when someone tiptoed in
And turned out the lights
It’s gonna be one of those nights
Down at the notell hotel
I took her into my room and picked the lock on the bar
To get a drink to calm her down
Then the mirror cracked as the window shook
And the table turned around
And when i grabbed at the phone
There was a voice at the end of the line
"is that 1059? is anything wrong, is there anything wrong"
Here at the notell hotel
Ooh, i love a mystery (cover up and intrigue)
Life can be a thriller, a fantasy of everything i see
Ooh, how i love a mystery (turned up raincoats)
Secret agents, waiting for the missing clue
At a rendezvous
