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 it's coming 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 wanna come back home
