You should decide what you want to believe in 
How can I describe what I'm receivin' 
It's like the marquee says, "one night at the stage" 
You want to live forever but you don't want to age 

I just can't help wondering 
It's such a waste of time 

The life-buoy in the life-boat he was a sailor 
You could not describe him, oh the words would just fail you 
And Justine laced up tight in her shoes 
You're gonna get it whatever you choose 

I just can't help wondering 
It's such a waste of time 

That's the blues man 
That's the big town 
That's the rebound 
That's the comedown 

As high as a mountain as fast as a first 
Beside a fountain dying of thirst 
And then the marquee says, "one night at the stage" 
Wait 'til I let this soul out of it's cage 

That's a weird trick 
That's a bad hit 
That's another round 
That's the comedown
