Room With A View
Warrant · 96'-Vol. 1-Belly To Belly [1996]
First thing he does when he climbs out of bed
He searches out a place to drink his daily bread
He wraps himself up tight in alcohol
It keeps him warm at night, like grandmas shawl
When he was a child, with everything planned
And his body was clean
Now he sits all alone
In a room with a view of the brick wall he's run into
Life has a way of leaving people like him stained
First thing she does when she goes out at night
She sells a smile to get what fills her inside
She brings plenty home and slowly gets stoned in a room by herself
She sits all alone in a room with a view of the brick wall she's run into
Life has a way of leaving people like us stained
He searches out a place to drink his daily bread
He wraps himself up tight in alcohol
It keeps him warm at night, like grandmas shawl
When he was a child, with everything planned
And his body was clean
Now he sits all alone
In a room with a view of the brick wall he's run into
Life has a way of leaving people like him stained
First thing she does when she goes out at night
She sells a smile to get what fills her inside
She brings plenty home and slowly gets stoned in a room by herself
She sits all alone in a room with a view of the brick wall she's run into
Life has a way of leaving people like us stained
Room With A View
Warrant's 'Room With A View' stands as a defining track from their 1996 album '96'-Vol. 1-Belly To Belly,' capturing the band's signature blend of hard rock and pop sensibilities. Released during the height of their commercial success, the song exemplifies the polished production and melodic hooks that characterized their work in the mid-to-late 1990s. As a staple of their discography, it reflects the era's power ballad style while maintaining the driving energy typical of their live performances. The recording remains a key part of Warrant's catalog, often associated with their greatest hits collections and live compilations from the same period.
