And he burns like a stopwatch on fire 
The fuse is short, the countdown's on 
And he'll pick up all the pieces after she's gone 
He'll pick up all the pieces after she's gone 

When she's gone 
You're gonna drink like a wasted frat 
And kick your feet like a spoiled brat 
You made your bed now you're lying alone 
And you'll pick up all the pieces after she's gone
Long gone 

Motel 30 is a desperate shout 
And if you check in then you'll never check out 
You feel like a hound, you look like a pup 
And if you let it get you down then you'll never get up 

Get you down 
Down, down when the pity's on 
Some kind of new-age Ponce de Leon 
You're drinking fear from a wooden cup 
And if you let it get you down then you'll never get up 

Paranoid, null and void, beaten down 
Tired, of having you around 

I know you, I can't believe it's true 
So, hand me down my walking cane 
Don't wanna hear you spout that bullshit again 
If it's too old baby, you're too loud 
And you'll feel more lonely out in the crowd 
You'll feel more lonely out in the crowd 

In the crowd 
You've gotta get with the party plan 
Or better move your ass old man 
Live your life and live it loud 
Or you'll feel more lonely out in the crowd 
You'll feel more lonely out in the crowd
