The floor is dusty and the rats are rusty and the rent keeps going up
They never fixed the shower, but just another hour I'll load the gear into my truck
I like the way it makes me feel
I like the way it makes me feel
The trash is overflowing and the deficit is growing and the big one's coming soon
The mercury's dropping as a I leave the grocery shop and scrape my windows with a plastic spoon
I like the way it makes me feel
I like the way it makes me feel
When the juice starts flowing and the tubes are glowing at midnight
The kids are crying and the barbs are flying and the bedroom is a mess
It's time to get the van 'cause I'm picking up the band, let the road decide the rest
I like the way it makes me feel
I like the way it makes me feel
When I plug my Les Paul in, know I'm gonna have a ball at the depot
I like the way it makes me feel
I like the way it makes me feel
When the harmonies are charming and familiar
I like the way it makes me feel
I like the way it makes me feel
But that was long ago, and now I'm all alone at the depot
