On the 26th floor of the hotel lies the bar,
Outside its windows the city lights and skyscrapers glisten from afar.
The beautiful chanteuse mesmerises all with her beautiful voice,
A birthday girl with the cocktails menu ponders over her choice.
Two business men shake their hands on a concluded deal,
A disillusioned office worker seeks comfort from redundancy and the chance to heal.
Lovers reunited carry on with their illicit affair,
A beautiful brunette goddess enters, all the men stop and stare.
The head barman races with extra speed to serve endless drinks,
His colleagues flirt outrageously with the rich socialite and her endless winks.
The rock band vacate the bar to go to bed,
Changing her mind,the blonde bombshell decides to have another bourbon instead.
An artist sits and contemplates life in the hotel bar,
The sights and sounds of London town outside the windows illuminate from afar.
