[Chorus 1]
What will become of the watcher
Whatever will happen to his soul
What will become of the watcher

[Chorus 2]
When the band packs up
When the lights go out
When the band packs up and goes home

[Verse 1]
Left him sitting at his table
He could no longer raise his cane
All the people missed his message

[Chorus 2]

[Verse 2]
His only friends lay in the ashtray
Each night he'd call them out by name
Before him, always sat the same glass
And the town folk thought him quite insane

[Chorus 1]
What will become of the watcher
Will no one dig a grave for his soul
Whatever will become of the watcher
[Chorus 2]
When the lights go out
When the lights go out
When the band packs up and goes home
