We're going to stay in a fancy hotel
Because we need a vacation
From our rented lives
We're going to jump
On high hotel beds
And fall asleep
Eight feet
Above the carpeted floor
We're going to order room service
And movies on the hotel tv
We're going to act like a wealthy family
In a penthouse suite
Because we're going to lose the house
We tried to keep it
But it didn't work out
So next week
We go to live
With Mom's Mom and Dad
And our home
Our home won't be our home
Anymore
But tonight we take
The last of our savings
Which was too small a sum
To rescue our residence
And we act like we're royalty
Sleeping on high beds
And heading to an exotic locale
On a jet tomorrow morning
Tonight we're people with money
People with worth
People who matter
People who never had to work hard
Or experience disappointment
Or let their kids down
Tonight we stay
In a fancy hotel
And tomorrow
We'll think about
Later
