Psychotic Vacation

We drove for hours with no motel in sight
We rejoiced to see the vacancy light

   Bates Motel seemed deserted
   Its manager perverted

At least we had a bed to spend the night

He gave us the key to room number one
Suggested a shower would be such fun

   He'd an Oedipus complex
   And we suspected his tricks

So before Norman returned we were gone
