H and M

Ya'll know that company H and M?
The one that's just down the street..
Get yourself a cool summer dress--
Big ass flowers on it
For less than a chicken dinner.
Feel all funky and chic for a while.
Then, you find yourself in a supermarket
On the other side of the world....
And there it is....
Ten women wearin' the same dress
In the frozen meat section alone.

They should stick to what they're good at.
Hotels and Motels....That's what they really do.
Lookin' after two kind of people...
Them in hotels...and them in the motels.

Motel people--they got the bible
In a beat up little bedside table.
Hotel people--they got magazines
Delivered to the door.
Hotel people...they got five stars goin' on.
Motel people....they got sky stars....
Many as they like if they got a view.
But sometimes, they just aeroplanes.
Hotel people dine.
Motel people eat.
But, basically, it still chicken.

Hotel people get pedicures.
Motel people clip their toenails at home.
They don't go out with toenails poking through the shoes.
Hotel people use plastic....
Got so much money, gotta keep it concealed--like a weapon.
Motel people---they just puttin' the gun away.
Payin' the bill with the fresh lump of cash...
They just found in the bank they robbed.

Hotel people....if they crazy,
They pay somebody eighty dollars an hour
Just to talk about it.
Man tells them they eccentric
They happy---they go home....
Sometimes even with drugs.
Motel people....if they crazy,
They just crazy....
Skip the chit chat and go straight for the Bud.
And if they really troubled,
It a case of 24.....family size.

I know about these hotel folk...how come?
My sister's neighbor.
Her daughter a maid in a five star hotel.
Lady blows her nose in a tissue
Throws it in the basket.
One little tissue.
Oh. Call up the maid...gotta change it.
Motel people?
They keep their own handkerchiefs.
And if it used up, they use their sleeve.
