"Room 8" lyrics - RILO KILEY

Room 8 the invite says
Come and surprise your oldest friend
The door's ajar, what's behind
In room 8, room 8, room 8

Cards are found in boxes there
Welcome me in to the earthly air
A baby girl named Jennifer
Born here, born here, in room 8

Lock the car
Tremble and shake
Baby the call was just a fake
But there she is spotted through rain
Jennifer she calls your name

On the bed, hip displaced
Broken nose and a toothless face
But she's alive, she's awake
In room 8, room 8, room 8

And she whispers,
We're still working full-time for love
Underpaid, overworked, uninsured
We'll work gladly with our hands
We'll take off our gloves
Till it's only love - till love remains
In room 8, room 8, room 8

I've never felt this pain before
Doubled over the motel floor
The ambulance it pulls away
With only tears as my alibi

But I'm still workin' full-time for love
9 to 5, weekends, and holidays
Don't lay me off with severance pay
Work me till I'm enslaved
By your elusive ways, invisible love
In room 8, room 8, room 8
