Single room in a cheap part of town
And the elevator's broken down
So I walk up the stairs
No one cares about the rent
When you're playing as little as me
Dirty dishes and a stain on my shirt
I eat alone and I'm out of work
So, tell me what did you think?
I'm the same, haven't changed
Just been going by a different name
What a waste
Now I'm coming back to say
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
Off in my jet flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right
I sail into the ocean staying overnight
'Cause, I went for broke
Since last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say
Everything is going my way
I grab the bus from the damp hotel
I grab my things and I'm ready to sell
Them all one at a time (at a time, y'know)
All the things that I loved
All the memories that used to be mine
They're gone, yeah, I sold them away
They're gone, and am I gonna last another day?
Will I last another day?
What a waste
Now I'm coming back to say
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
Off in my jet flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right
I sail into the ocean staying overnight
'Cause I went for broke
Since last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say
Everything is going my way
Well, everything is going my way
Ay
