Got to Be a Better Way Home

[Verse 1]
Baby just believe me, don't try to read me
I've got to catch the 5:05
I've got a ragged hungry band full of stone survivors
We're out here tryin' to keep it alive

[Pre-Chorus]
No more favors, fuckin' strangers say I owe
Don't care about your problems, baby, all I want to know
How am I gonna get it
How am I gonna get it
How am I gonna get it tonight?

[Chorus]
I work hard enough, I'm tired of smiling at liars
I never said I'd try to set the world on fire
Leave me alone
Got to find a better way home

[Verse 2]
I do it all in an hour, could you talk a little louder?
I don't open my eyes until midnight
They're screamin' to please me, got to make it look easy
'Cause I'm fighting for my life in the spotlight

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm dancin' in my corner but the bell won't ring
I've got no time to argue, baby, but tell me one thing
How am I gonna get it
How am I gonna get it
How am I gonna get it tonight?

[Chorus]
I work hard enough, I'm tired of smiling at liars
I never said I'd try to set the world on fire
Leave me alone
Got to find a better way home

[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the motor revvin' baby, I've got to go
But just before I leave, there's one thing I've got to know
How am I gonna get it
How am I gonna get it
How am I gonna get it tonight?

[Chorus]
I work hard enough, I'm tired of smiling at liars
I never said I'd try to set the world on fire
Leave me alone
Got to find a better way home

[Outro]
Comin' home, baby
Comin' home, baby
Comin' home, baby
Comin' home, baby
