The Left Banke
Bryant Hotel
[Verse 1]
Bryant Hotel
Cardboard ceilings and mayhem
Nobody cares
Hours for sale
Broadway harlequin harem
Foot of the stairs

[Chorus]
It's a sunny day
But through your window all the world looks gray
The cleaning lady didn't show today
Or so they say
But then you never can tell

[Verse 2]
Bryant Hotel
Fossils lie in the lobby
Biding their time
Midsummer hell
Sink-down sofa seat shabby
Fifty cent wine

[Chorus]
It's a sunny day
But through your window all the world looks gray
A month of dear belated bills to pay
But that's okay
They never had it so well
[Post-Chorus]
At the Bryant Hotel
At the Bryant Hotel, now, mama
At the Bryant Hotel

[Verse 3]
Bryant Hotel
Elevator vacation
Hourly ride
Telephone call
Find another location
Credit denied

[Chorus]
It's a sunny day
But through your window all the world looks gray
The cleaning lady didn't show today
Or so they say
But then you never can tell

[Outro]
At the Bryant Hotel
At the Bryant Hotel, now, pretty mama
Woo-hoo, at the Bryant Hotel, now (Come on, baby, woo-hoo-hoo)
Oh, at the Bryant Hotel (Woo-hoo)
Babe, the Bryant Hotel
Oh
Ah!
The Bryant Hotel, now, pretty mama
Come on down to ball now
Room 302
Whoa!
Come on down, pretty baby
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mm-hmm
