Only the names have been changed
Inside the motel
Sue walk to the desk
Signs her name
As Mrs. Jim Slater
She asks for a suite
She wants only the best
Her husband will be along later
Bill sits in his office
And picks up the phone
Barb's waiting to lock up
The door
"I'll be late", he says
"Don't wait up alone"
Kate's heard his excuses before
Only the names have been changed
To protect the guilty
The guilty and sometimes ashamed
The stories
The people are real
Only the names have been changed
Michael's a singer
He travels the world
He's married
But still so alone
Jane left the group
A confused little girl
She'll sing by herself
From now on
Only the names have been changed
To protect the guilty
The guilty and sometimes ashamed
The stories
The people are real
Only the names have been changed
Only the names have been changed
