Albany House

[Verse 1]
On the Isle of Man
At sunset by the sea
Albany House is calling
Come in, stay with me
Four stars on the door
And a smile that holds
Nikki and Nige are waiting
With stories warm and bold
[Pre-Chorus]
Freddie and May at the table
Pass the plates around
Your shoes by the mat
Your worries settle down
[Chorus]
Welcome to all
Welcome to all
Albany House
Feels like home
Egg bacon beans and all
Egg bacon beans and all
Three posh rooms upstairs
Come on in
[Verse 2]
A pea shaped bath
For a quiet soak
Fresh sheets, soft pillows
And a friendly little joke
They know your name
Before you ask at all
Tea in a proper mug
And rain against the wall
[Pre-Chorus]
Freddie and May at the table
Pass the plates around
Your shoes by the mat
Your worries settle down
[Chorus]
Welcome to all
Welcome to all
Albany House
Feels like home
Egg bacon beans and all
Egg bacon beans and all
Three posh rooms upstairs
Come on in
[Bridge]
From dawn to golden evening
The door stays open wide
You walk in as a stranger
You leave with heart inside
Nikki and Nige are waving
Freddie and May sing too
One more night in Albany
And we’re coming back to you
[Final Chorus]
Welcome to all
Welcome to all
Albany House
Feels like home
Egg bacon beans and all
Egg bacon beans and all
Three posh rooms upstairs
Come on in
Welcome to all
Welcome to all
Albany House
Feels like home

Female vocals up front, doubled on hooks, with short delay throws and call-and-response tags. Sea-breeze chimes, reverse swells, and room-noise transitions. Bright, punchy, homely mix., rock
