Cloud Nine Motel was only one of many comedic songs sung by the Farquahr (most written by Doug Lapham "Barnswallow") This song was featured on a Dr. Demento show that may or may not be archived somewhere on the net. I almost know the lyrics by heart. here goes with apologies to Doug:
| I took my wife and kids on vacation, to a place where we'd never been, There was a mixup in the reservations, so for us there was no room at the Inn. Now this was at the height of the season when a room was really hard to find, We drove around and long about evening we found a motel they called Cloud Nine. Now the wife and kids went out to find our room, while I unloaded the car, Soon the kids came running back excited and said hey dad this is the best place by far! chorus: Daddy they've got mirrors on the ceiling, and you oughta see whats playing on TV! They got whips & chains in the closet and the bathtub would hold the family! Now your bed is shaped like a big heart and dad it goes up and down ! And mom's so happy she's crying, it must be the magazines she found !!! etc.. Someone please take of these handcuffs and what's that trapeze doing in here! Just then i saw my youngest go walkin by with something he had found He said, hey dad what the heck is this thing, it vibrates and makes a humming sound....... |
There is more it is a great song; it is on the Farquahr's cd From the Top. Good luck for such a terrific group. There is very little about them on the net sadly... I know they had a great following..
