If you've got plans tonight, uh oh there goes my appetite
I'm face down in Havertown with wasted words inside my mouth
The boys are gettin' high in someone's garage next to yard supplies
Talkin' bout a piece of ass over Classic Rock 102.9
I saw I missed your call, but works at eight I guess your off
The highlights getting dimmer here, here's to another wasted year
So much more time to decide
But each year seems to run a little faster
So it goes, the passage of time
Keeps closing in, and I'm not getting past her

Oh one more December
Then I'll be gone, baby don't cry
Oh by next September they'll be singing out the words I've been screaming all my life

I got no plans tonight, I'll drink myself to paradise,
Lost inside that neon sign, til drunken crowds sing Closing Time
The cops will wait outside to shake those feeling brave to drive
Frantic girls grab at their phones, while street lights try to guide me home
This summer came and gone, they still don't know what I've been on
While autumns chill is creeping in
I'll comatose till winter ends
So much more time to decide
But each year seems to run a little faster
So it goes, the passage of time
Keeps closing in, and I'm not getting past her

Oh one more December
Then I'll be gone, baby don't cry
Oh by next September they'll be singing out the words I've been screaming all my life

If we make plans tonight
There's dreams we'll have to sacrifice
This comfort in complacency, is taking everything I'd leave
I thought I'd be a star and crawl out from this Irish bar
The wasted years are packing in
The moment came and ran again

Oh one more December
Then I'll be gone, baby don't cry
Oh by next September they'll be singing out the words I've been screaming all my life
Oh one more December
Then I'll be gone, baby don't cry
Oh by next September they'll be singing out the words I've been screaming all my life
