Mal Blum - Candy Bars & Men

An endless string of motel lobby
Family waiting rooms
Where everybody’s restless
Wanting’s gone by afternoon

And I’ll admit
I’ve walked those halls now and again
Go out for nourishment
Find candy bars and men

Ain’t it nice, ain’t it nice, to rest your head
Ain’t it nice, ain’t it nice, to pretend

Park the beds outside the doors
And keep your eyes on them
A threadbare mattress shows
Discretion like nobody can

And just this once
Boy, I don’t mind
Being your secret
Never liked sugar much
But now and then I need it

Ain’t it nice to rest your head
Ain’t it nice to pretend

A dwindling relic trying
To give ‘em hell on her way out
One day the nationals
Will elbow their way into town

And like a traveling band
I think I’ve paid my dues
Running from state to state
But all I found was you

Oh,
Ain’t it nice to rest your head
Ain’t it nice to pretend instead
