The tank is empty
and we're running on fumes
Knocking down walls
'cause there ain't enough room
We don't get
no champagne on the rider
These are the pitfalls
of being an outsider
The road is long
and the nights getting longer
What doesn't kill us probably
won't make us stronger
The gears grind
and the cuts still sting
But I wouldn't change
a goddamn thing
And I ain't coming out
'cause I need the love
I don't wanna join
your social club
It ain't a long way
to the bottom
And I ain't coming out
to support the scene
Don't give a fuck
if you don't like me
It ain't a long way
to the bottom
So won't you give it a shot
There's broken hearts
and a broken down van
The pay sucks
when you stick it to the man
The score's tied
but there ain't no decider
These are the pitfalls
of being an outsider
I pay my dues
but I can't pay my rent
I may be coming
but I ain't got no sense
Gears grind and
the cuts still sting
And I wouldn't change
a goddamn thing
And I ain't coming out
'cause I need the love
Don't wanna join
your social club
It ain't a long way
to the bottom
And I ain't coming out
to support the scene
Don't give a fuck
if you don't like me
It ain't a long way
to the bottom
So won't you give it a shot
Nobody loves you when
the crumbs have filled
Nobody loves you when
you're rich get stoned
Nobody loves you when
you're sinking to the bottom
But I ain't coming out
'cause I need the love
I don't wanna join
your social club
It ain't a long way
to the bottom
And I ain't coming out
to support the scene
Don't give a fuck
if you don't like me
It ain't a long way
to the bottom
So won't you give it a shot
