the elevator, in the hotel lobby has a lazy door
the man inside is going to a hotel room
he jumped out right after seeing just the very sight of me
decided he better hike it to the second floor

its temporary, this place i'm in
i permanently wont do this again
my belongings scattered across the hotel floor

now then later, i was thinking it over by the snack machine
i thought about you and a candy bar
the now and laters, now that i've got, stuck between my teeth
i fell asleep to the greatest movie of the year

a man gets lonely, for heavens sake
he's wondering only what did you do today
the worlds spinning around into an old, sad song

well [bad word] down outside like ive never even seen before
i fell into some kind of sorry state
but looking back now, i think it's time for me to laugh about it
and get my things together and find something to say

well i feel awful, and i believe
that time gets wasted in this misery
and darling, i never [bad word] back home
