Lyrics
verse 1
Nighttime don?t fall quick enough on this wasted land
Favorite time of day for the wasted man
He partners with a fifth then hits the usual place
Times it right then he stays all night, looking for a new face
Lesson 1 from the Loser?s Guide to Love
verse 2
Lights go down and the music she starts heating up
He swallows down a brighter mood from a dirty cup
Scans and tries to land on eyes across the room
Then contemplates the perfect time to try and make his move
Lesson 2 from the Loser?s Guide to Love
bridge
Every night turns out the same
He goes home alone but not without some pretty face to blame
verse 3
He swears that some day soon he?ll find a new routine
Using tips from the old bartender for a cleverer scheme
In the meantime, more importantly, the cabinet is bare
A woman?s fine but the mind is better off when it?s without a care
Lesson 3 from the Loser?s Guide to Love
