Hotel Red Bluff

On a cold November
freezing in the rain
with a car on it's last leg
adding to my pain
Up ahead on the corner
A motel for the night.
My foot pressed heavy down upon the brake,
exited to the right.

Parked my car in the lot there,
took my coat off pell-mell,
I was thinking to myself
It was suddenly hotter than hell.

I took out my wallet
because I had to pay,
"No cash" he softly said,
"It'll be your soul today."

Welcome to the Hotel here in Red Bluff
such a heated place
like a fireplace
Plenty of heat at the hotel here in Red Bluff
and it's quite severe
any time of year.

My opinion was twisted,
I had laughed with my friends,
about this ridiculous town,
the backward hillbilly trends.
Now I found myself trapped here,
glistening with sweat,
feeling bad for the things I had said,
trying hard to forget.

I felt so suddenly thirsty,
parched, I started to whine,
about the heat and my broke down car
I didn't have the time...
I heard a voice from a car not far away,
"Hey miss, do you need a hand?
I could help you today."

Welcome to the Hotel here in Red Bluff

Head under the car hood,
he was so very nice.
"We are all just common folks here,
but I'd like to entice
you to think about staying"
he wiped off the grease,
politely before he shook my hand.
How could I have teased?

Next thing I remember
I was frozen to the core,
I woke up in the same cold house
in the bed I was before
I had a terrible dream
too bad to believe
I had woke from a nightmare
but wasn't able to leave.

Extreme heat, even for Red Bluff...

Suffering from the effects of a Thanksgiving dinner, I was in a tryptophan fog when I fell
asleep last night.  I had a weird dream that I'll share with you.
Now, let me preface this by saying that I believe dreams can give us an incredible amount
of insight into our everyday lives.  Even the most bizarre dreams can represent our inner
fears, blah, blah, blah...
My family and friends often tell me their dreams and I interpret the meanings of these.
This is an easy thing to do, however, it is sometimes difficult to see my own dream
meanings quite so clearly.  Here is your chance to interpret my dream.
While you read it, look for symbols that could possibly represent commonplace things.

I asked my sister what my dream might mean.  She said she didn't know but that the
whole thing reminded her of a song...

Here, you can read my sister's melodic
version of my dream.
Yeah, it was a memorable dream,
worthy of a song.
Hmm...did you sing it with the music?  Just curious.
Obviously, my sister believes the dream was punishment for making fun of our town.
Maybe a kind of a warning to stop.  I don't know...
Hey, I like our town!  I was laughing
with it, not at it!
Thanks for the song!  Too bad we don't have a studio to record it.

I'll see you next week.
Vacancy here for all
who have ever poked
fun at Red Bluff.
That would be all
