Intro
Verse 1
Single room in the 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 paying as little as me
Verse 2
Dirty dishes and a stain on my shirt
I eat alone when I'm out of work
So tell me, what did you think?
I am the same, haven't changed, just been going by a different name
Pre-chorus 1
What a waste, now I'm coming back to say
Chorus 1
I'm no big shot, big town, big money, hop in my jet, flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right, I sail out to the ocean, staying overnight
Well, I went from broke since the last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say, everything is going my way
Verse 3
I grab the bus from the damp hotel
I grab my things and I'm ready to sell
That I'll want out of time (out of time you know)
All the things that I loved; all the memories that used to be mine
Verse 4
They're gone, yeah, I've thrown them away
They're gone, they're never gonna last another day
Will they last another day?
Pre-chorus 2
What a waste, now I'm coming back to say
Chorus 2
I'm no big shot, big town, big money, hop in my jet, flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right, I sail out to the ocean, staying overnight
Well, I went from broke since the last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say, everything is going my way
Instrumental bridge
Chorus 3
I'm no big shot, big town, big money, hop in my jet, flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right, I sail out to the ocean, staying overnight
Yeah, 'cause I went from broke since the last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say, everything
Everything is going my way
