Come to me, you young boys, all you lonely and you lame
Don't waste my time with useless lines because we both know we're playing a game
Don't you tell me any breathless words of love - it's garbage and I don't need that kind of jive
Just come to me and bring your tens and your twenties
And I'll make you glad that you're alive

 

I am your motel, I am your motel, I am your motel - motel madonna
Mother to orphans and homeless strays
C'mere honey and bring me the money and I'll show you a few of love's ways

 

I am no cheap streetside beacon, no run-down-town redlight lamp
I don't do groups and I don't do perversions
I am not that kind of tramp

 

I am your motel, I am your motel, I am your motel - motel madonna
Rocked many a boy, sweet young boy on my knee
I know you'll be gone in the morning, baby that's all right with me

 

Your mother will tell you that I'm worthless but your daddy knows that I'm not cheap
I plan to do quite well and I'll probably end up in hell
Rocking the sinners to sleep

 

I am your motel, I am your motel, I am your motel - motel madonna
Mother to orphans and homeless strays
Com'ere honey and bring me the money and I'll show you a few of love's ways
I am your motel, I am your motel, I am your motel - motel madonna
Rocked many a boy, sweet young boy on my knee
I know you'll be gone in the morning, baby that's all right with me
