Lyrics for Star Hotel

All last night we were learning Drank our cheques by the bar Somewhere bridges were burning As the walls came down at the Star Squadcars fanned the insanity News teams fought through the crowd Spent last night under custody And the sun found me And the sun found me And the sun found me on the road At the Star Hotel At the Star Hotel At the Star Hotel At the Star Hotel They better listen cause we're ringin' a bell Ain't no deals, we got nothing to sell Just a taste of things to come at the Star Hotel (Here lies a local culture Most nights were good, some were bad Between school and a shifting future It was most of all we had) Those in charge getting crazier Job queues grow through the land An uncontrolled youth in Asia Are gonna make those fools understand An uncontrolled youth in Asia Are gonna make those fools Gonna make those fools Gonna make those fools understand Understand At the Star Hotel At the Star Hotel At the Star Hotel At the Star Hotel At the Star Hotel At the Star Hotel They better listen cause we're ringin' a bell Ain't no deals, we got nothing to sell Just a taste of things to come At the Star Hotel
