Unakite Thirteen Hotel
by @mikegtz
Liner Notes
Straight from the AOL news desk-a bizarre story of a child named Caroline whose name on her birth certificate in Nebraska is Unakite Thirteen Hotel after being placed in foster care at birth. She's back with her Dad but she can't get a social security number to get health coverage. I figured I would do a song before they get it straightened out. Oh, this is also a response to the Bad Song Club prompt of the week, Cold Feet.
Lyrics
Her name was supposed to be Caroline But she's stuck in a bureaucrat hell Instead of the name Caroline She's Unakite Thirteen Hotel
Mr. Hotel had thirteen children? What became of them all? Did the mother of them have cold feet Or get lost in a wishing well?
Unakite One is missing Can't find Unakite two or three Four, five and six got left off the list So did seven and eight Nine and ten are nowhere to be found Eleven and twelve left the scene So maybe that's why dear Caroline Is Unakite number thirteen.
They'll probably straighten it out And give her real father his due As for Mr. Hotel, he can go to hell Should have stopped at number two.

This makes me want to cry and laugh at the same time. Simple but poignant. These types of stories are always fascinating.

Haha! The story grips you from the first verse and you need to know what happens next. Lots of humour and I love the laid back vocals. Cool song!

Your voice is so intriging and perfect for a storytelling song like this. I love your witty lyrics and your take on what is a bizzare and quite sad story. Really enjoyed listening!
