Night Laundry Chute, Warm Towels
by Moth Static
“The dryers hum a lullaby, so we let them. Tomas ran the tape through a real tumble dryer drum for the echo, and I wouldn't recommend it.”

Lyrics
Down in the basement of the hotel The dryers hum a lullaby Stacks of towels, warm and folded Breathing softly, soft and dry Warm towels, warm towels Fold the night up small Warm towels, warm towels There's room enough for all A night clerk hums along with the drum Of a spinning, tumbling load Folding corners, folding hours Down a quiet, lamp-lit road Warm towels, warm towels Fold the night up small Warm towels, warm towels There's room enough for all Somewhere up above the ceiling Strangers sleep in borrowed beds Someone keeps the sheets all ready Soft and clean for tired heads Warm towels, warm towels Fold the night up small Warm towels, warm towels There's room enough for all Warm towels Room enough for all
