My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night.
There he stood in the doorway;
I rang the warning bell
And I was thinking to myself
'This could be heaven or this could be Hell'

Then he lit up a candle and he showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say,
'Welcome to the hellmouth California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
That you have to face.
Plenty of doom in the hell of California
Any time of year (any time of year) you can find it here'

Her mind is tragedy-twisted, she got the dive tower bends
She got a lot of pretty useless pricks, that she calls friends
Used to dance in the graveyard, sweet summer sweat
I'll dance to remember, she'll dance to forget
So I called up the Captain,
'Please bring me my wine'
He said, 'you haven't had that spirit here since nineteen ninety-nine'

And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say,
'Welcome to the hellmouth California
Such a deadly place (such a broken place)
That she has to face.
They livin' it up at the hellmouth California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your alibis'

Mirrors in the cemetery
The red champagne on grass
And she said, 'we are all just victims here, in a house of glass'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
'Relax' said the night man,
'We are programmed to receive.
You can check out any time you like,
But do you want to leave?'
