[Verse 1]
Watching regional infomercials
On the hotel TV
Oh, just for tonight
You can buy one and get one free
[Pre-Chorus]
And I swear that I heard a bump and a scream
From the room next door
But oh, I turn out the light
And I hope it don't last that long
[Chorus]
Can I, get some rest?
Can I, get some rest?
Oh can I, get some rest?
[Verse 2]
Say you wanna get sober
And I say, "I'd like to see you try"
But oh, you've told me once
And I just won’t hear it twice
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm reaching out for you
But I fear that you just may be gone
And so, I turn out the light
And I hope it don't last that long
[Chorus]
Can I, get some rest?
Can I, get some rest?
Oh can I, get some rest?
[Bridge]
And do you ever think of me?
In the night?
When you hear a car passing by
And you're wishing I was inside
'Cause I lay beside him
In the night
And I had a filthy dream
To the noise of the hotel TV
[Outro]
Had a filthy dream
Had a filthy dream
Had a filthy dream

Jeanie Pilkington:
It’s about a relationship going bad. Gracie wrote the hook when we were in a hotel in Brisbane, our first time staying out of Melbourne to do music, needing some rest. We needed a fucking break. It really resonated with the rest of the song, ’cause that’s what I was trying to say...
