Today's been a career day Futures made and fortunes lost As I'm standing in the lobby I'm waiting for the elevator To take me away up to nine or ten Maybe eleven The sound of sirens fading As she whispers in my ear she's saying "It's too late to wish success So get undressed and please just come to bed Cause I'm the last real thing you've got You're cursed by all ambitious thoughts" Is that all you've got As for you, you spin a story like a spider spins a web See that's a metaphor, no wait, a simile I'm still learning but I think im getting better Oh if I'm not tortured how are you ever going to relate I've been condemed by those I love Wishing me the worst as I'm trying my best But she's the last real thing I've got I'm cursed by all ambitious thoughts Is that all you've got Love close your eyes and cover cover your ears For the end is near but the beginning is here In with the outro and out with the old I'm gonna tie all the loose ends I once pulled In with the outro and out with the old Preparing for failure, from what we've been told In with the outro and out with the old With nothing to offer, so nothings been sold In with the outro and out with the old Forgive me and give me one more chance to fold In with the outro and out with the old There's nothing to lose when there's nothing to hold We'll be together in the morning
