Where do bands go when they’re no longer a hype
Where does smoke go when it leaves the pipe
And where do I go when I fall asleep
Do I take the lead do I follow the sheep

Where does hunger go when it goes on strike
Where would I go without my bike
And where do blizzards go when they’re lost in a storm
Do they go back to where they came from

Everything comes and goes
But where to, nobody knows

Where does fear go when we’re no longer afraid
Where does fat go when you lose weight
And where will I go the day I die
To heaven or hell or to Hawaii

Everything comes and goes
But where to, nobody knows

And we’re all on a road to nowhere
Or on our way to a wheelchair
And there’s a whole in the ground somewhere
For those of us beyond repair

Where do bands go when they’re no longer a hype
Where would REM go without Michael Stipe
And where would England be without the queen
Would it go up in smoke like nicotine

Everything comes and goes
But where to, nobody knows

Everything that comes must go again
And what has to end, had to begin
Everything that comes must go again

We all know how the story ends….
