Never again, your so called friend 
Will leave you sick and dry 
This friend has a name 
Knows the gutter and shame 
This so called friend of you and 
I ?, the long-term goals 
Are to leave this friend behind 
He knows what 
I lack Is a place under the sack 
For every other tie that binds 
This last night on the town 
Might be your last fun time out 
And you think to yourself 
There must be a better way than the same routine 
For more than once, you pay 
More than once, you pay 
Butt full of lead, stuck in your web 
Held captive by the stream 
Thoughts in your head 
The minute 
I sped And you still had time to dream 
This last night on the town 
Might be your last 
And you smile at things and wave goodbye 
More excuses to never even try 
As you wave goodbye 
Forget what 
I said, your friend's not dead 
He's only gone for a while 
Come back to that crack between what's white and what's black 
And give you one last smile 
This last night on the town 
Might be your last fun time out 
And you think to yourself 
There must be a better way than the same routine 
For more than once, you pay 
More than once, you pay
