I hear that you got yourself a houseand all your friends you finally figured outbut you go out in the night til you got no place to goI see you on the corner where you're trying to use the phoneand everyone will say you missed your chanceand everyone will say you've lost you're edgebut it's just something that you've heard about a thousand time beforeand every time you're falling then you'll see me on the floorand someday when you turn aroundyou'll take a wife, and start a lifeit won't be longI hear that you got yourself a joband all your friends you finally nailed downbut you go out in the night till you got no place to gosomething you ain't doing right is haunting you at homenow we've been hanging round for quite a whileso let's get out of here and take a driveon the parkway tonightyou can hear the engines roarthe flashing lights will nab you when you're driving your way homeand someday when you turn around you'll see the door is closing
