Rock Bottom
It was four in the morning when he knocked on my door
""I'm sorry to wake you up, I was about to pass by your porch
But then I saw the light.
It's my first visit here, could you show me around?
I've always feared the city and I'm terrified to face it before the dawn""
I feel you my friend, one never chooses to come to Rock Bottom
So John and I left the house for some action
And when we got on the main street
I was about to pass by Ol’ William
But John asked me to pull over
He said, ""If I was him I'd like someone to stop""
So we stopped
Old Dirty William asked for a couple of bucks:
""Sorry lad it ain’t been my year,""
He said, ""I'd trade one of your worst days for one of my best, anytime""
""Well, we're not gonna fight over who's the most miserable,
Jump in the car""
And just when I think we've hit Rock Bottom
We ain’t seen nothing yet
The Three Musketeers wandering around
Passed you in your bright skinny dress on the side of the road,
Waiting for a miracle
I called out to you that we’re all in the same boat
Brothers in pain and sisters in misery
Hoping salvation is out there beyond the yellow brick road
But just when we thought we were out of Rock Bottom
It might have only been the eye of the storm
Up there someone's laughing their ass off
""Go ahead, make plans, and keep raging when they blow up in smoke
As if you've got it all under control""
And don’t forget to stop by our gift shop
But if you've learned nothing from it now
Well we'll see you again soon
'Cause no matter where you are, you're two steps from Rock Bottom
