| Song | Central Hotel |

| Album | There Goes the Daylight [live] |
| 作词 : Hammill | |
| I found myself lying on the balcony, | |
| stripling terror, naked to the bone; | |
| the secret asteroid jungle nearly done for me – | |
| I saw it all just a moment ago. | |
| I know I'd better watch out | |
| for the Central Hotel... | |
| I'm not going back. | |
| Repetition, superstition, singularity, | |
| though every cell in the body has changed | |
| the walls move in well-accustomed hilarity – | |
| the circuit changes, but the joke stays the same. | |
| I know I'd better watch out | |
| for the Central Hotel. | |
| I think I'd better get out, | |
| I'm not feeling so well. | |
| And I won't be going back, | |
| not if I can help it. | |
| I can't help it, I can't help it | |
| if I still am what I was; | |
| I can't help it, I can't help it, | |
| I can't stop the therefore because I can't help it. | |
| The grace of god shows I'll be going on, | |
| I'll be coming back. | |
| I know nothing of the miles of the marathon, | |
| I hear nothing of the footfall behind, | |
| I search for rhythm and I find that I haven't one | |
| slow motion in the runner's mind. | |
| I know I'd better watch out | |
| for the Central Hotel. | |
| I think I'd better get out, | |
| I'm not feeling so well. | |
| I know I'd better check out, | |
| but anyone here can tell | |
| I'll be coming back, I'll be back. | |
| I'm the Central Hotel. | |
| I'm the Central Hotel. | |
| I'm the Central Hotel. |
