The countertop was filthy with beer bottles and ash
Smelt like backseat full of trash
Wed forgotten to clean

The scripts were read in programs for the whole wide world
Sitting in a hotel with the only girl
Id forgotten to take


If i drop the ball
Shed be picking it up for me

If i missed the call
Shed never talk after the beep


The crooked cans in boxes were too noisy in the hall
The landlord needs a haircut and overalls
Because hes forgotten to put on his clothes

The cops were only sent to scare the %#@! out of us
But we were busy laughing its the first of the month
And man ive already cashed my check


As a matter of fact now you cant go back out
And leave me hanging

Out on the tracks now falling back down
On knees bent and shaking
