When The Music's Over
What's a drummer to do
what is there left to say
when the music's over
there's no more songs to play
with emptiness within the silence is deafening
as the curtain has come down
the audience all gone home
the group is leaving town
but pack up the drums
load them in the car
look for yet another gig
in the hopes one day he'll be a star
fifteen minutes of fame
a brief moment in the sun
when everyone knows his name
and altho' no one admits it
at each and every one-night stand
he's the pulse the heart and soul
the backbone of the band

I'll loan you my own plugged nickel, if you have a red cent I may borrow, but swallow a dollar today, and you'll be passing the buck tomorrow.
