[Verse 1]
Put down your pencils
Time is up and pass your papers to the front
You hear that bell?
It means you're dead
Guess what, your life was just a test
(Surprise)
How'd you think you did?
Did you listen to the right people who showed you how to live?
As you barrel faster towards the end
Keep smiling, dying like you live

[Pre-Chorus]
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 thе sky
Why's good advice so hard to come by?
[Verse 2]
You start thinking
"Hey, I know this placе
Same awful look, same sour taste"
It's a good deal south of outer space
Just north of Hell, straight on 'til day
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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]
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 you when I see you on the other side
[Pre-Chorus]
Guess the bastard's 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?
