Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Put down your pencils, time is up
And pass your papers to the front
Did you hear that bell? It means you're dead
Guess what? Your life was just a test
Surprise
[Verse 2]
How'd you think you did?
You listen to the right people who showed you how to live?
As you barrel faster towards the end
Keep smiling, dyying like you lived
[PreChorus]
Guess the bastards finally got you
I guess it's one of those days
[Chorus]
Say goodnight
I'm out of step and out of time
Big surprise
Why's good advice so hard to come by?
Close your eyes
Walk among us one more time
Curse the sky
Why's good advice so hard to come by?
[Verse 3]
You start thinking, "Hey, I know this place"
Same awful look, same sour taste
It's a good deal south of outer space
Just north of Hell, straight on till day
[Verse 4]
Here we go again
Did a typo on your file give you another chance?
I guess you best be moving on
Act fast before they know you're gone
[PreChorus]
Guess the bastards finally got you
I guess it's one of those days
[Chorus]
Say goodnight
I'm out of step and out of time
Big surprise
Why's good advice so hard to come by?
Close your eyes
Walk among us one more time
Curse the sky
Why's good advice so hard to come by?
[Bridge]
And I know, I know you're in the corner shaking
So just go save yourself while you're still worth saving
Someday you'll die, but for now enjoy the ride
And I'll see ya when I see ya on the other side
[PreChorus]
Guess the bastards finally got you
I guess it's one of those days
[Chorus]
Say goodnight
I'm out of step and out of time
Big surprise
Why's good advice so hard to come by?
Close your eyes
Walk among us one more time
Curse the sky
Why's good advice so hard to come by?
