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 & ????):



(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
