Every time I come into my room, the TV flicks on and sings at me, some 50s sounding musical number.
Googling the lyrics is not working.
what is it, where is it from?
Here's a Hello from your Friendly receptionist Welcome to Holiday Inn Do you need a broad or a good pack of *** Maybe a Tonic an Gin
etc.

They provide broads? So that's why all those rappers name check it.
― blueski, Thursday, 6 December 2007 21:46 (seventeen years ago)
I'm still looking for this 'red hot receptionist' she doesn't appear to be behind the desk downstairs.
― Ed, Thursday, 6 December 2007 21:54 (seventeen years ago)
good pack of ***
?
― El Tomboto, Thursday, 6 December 2007 21:59 (seventeen years ago)
Good pack of cocksucking motherfuckers, obv.

Mist?

I want to find the lyrics so I can find out what *** is, I can't decipher from the recording.
― Ed, Thursday, 6 December 2007 22:02 (seventeen years ago)
Fist?
Liszt?

Hist?
Street slang for antihistamines...

A better question is, are you currently staying at Holiday Inn, and if so, why the fuck are they trying to annoy the shit outta you?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seesaw_%28musical%29 says it's a 1973 musical based on a play by William Gibson and I was all !?! but, uh, not that William Gibson.
For my prize, if I am not xposted to hell, I would like some new hobbies better than googling other people's weird song memories of an evening.

I think I just killed all the fun. But I hate fun, so that's fine by me.

I don't think the rhyme scheme actually requires that. It's probably just "cigarettes"

^^^^ BORING
Shut up, you.

I am in the holiday Inn 'City Stars' in Cairo working a trade fair. We were originally in the intercontinetal round the corner but somehow they had run out of regular rooms so put us in over priced 'executive ones' so I was there in an executive one for one night then moved round here. Somehow I have turned into a travelling salesman in the last month.
WTF, they are drilling in my wall.

Perhaps it's good catalyst.

There's an audio sample on that page too if you want to get a notion of how it sounds.
― libcrypt, Thursday, 6 December 2007 22:25 (seventeen years ago)
Oh hell. The first line is right on there:
Here’s a hello from your friendly receptionist, welcome to Holiday Inn! Do you need a broad or a good psychoanalyst, maybe a tonic and gin...
― libcrypt, Thursday, 6 December 2007 22:27 (seventeen years ago)
WTF at Holiday Inn stocking broads and psychoanalysts, tho.
― libcrypt, Thursday, 6 December 2007 22:28 (seventeen years ago)

So here is a hug from your horny receptionist, Welcome to Holiday Inn!
If you wanna cup of coffee Iff you wanna piece of danish I'll be ready, I’ll be waiting in the hall And regardless of the hour should you need a wake up a call Call Call Call! We people going in and out you know what I mean ... But you’re the greatest looking transient, I’ve ever seen! So here's hello from your sexy receptionist One big hello from your red hot receptionist
Welcome to Holiday Inn!!
