Welcome to the Hotel California...
 

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
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

So I called to the Captain
"Please bring me my wine!"
He said,
"We haven't had 'THAT SPIRIT' here since 1969..."

"Last thing I remember I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before"

(I think that is now my favorite line from the song!)

"You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave!'

Ain't that the truth. This is one ride I'll never forget.

Never really realized how fitting the lyrics are until today - thanks!
