Week 97 - "Parasite Hotel"

ALF sings this song on the episode "Keepin' the Faith."  However, he only sings three lines and I always wondered what the rest of it might sound like, so I finished the A section and then composed a new bridge.

I played the entire part on the piano so it would be consistent through the piece.  I played it at the exact tempo that ALF played it, so I could sync it with the video more easily.  Then I clipped the audio of the three lines that ALF sings and tried my best to filter out the piano on the original audio, so I could blend it with my audio.  Finally, I added the other vocal tracks and mixed it,


Lyrics:
I just checked into the Parasite Hotel.
They ain't got a porter or a bell.
I checked into that Parasite Hotel.
And now I'm so lonely, so lonely,
But there ain't no other place I can dwell.

Millions of miles from my planet of birth.
And nowhere to hang my hat.
Now I'm a freeloading scum of the earth.
Don't even have a dime to buy a cat.

I just checked into the Parasite Hotel.
They ain't got a porter or a bell.
I checked into that Parasite Hotel.
And now I'm so lonely, so lonely,
But there ain't no other place I can dwell.
