			Eitzel told ''Unhinged'', "Every time I sing the song, I think of the moment I thought of writing the song and that was outside a place called the Sound of Music and this whore walked by and this guy goes, 'Hey baby, I need myself a good woman,' and she says, 'If you wanna abuse me you gotta pay me money, fucker!' And that's why I wrote the song."<ref>{{cite web \| url=http://americanmusicclub.com/index.php?title=Articles:Unhinged_-_Winter_1989 \| work=Unhinged \| date=Winter 1989 \| author=Drew \| title=American Music Club \| accessdate=March 27, 2018}}</ref>

==Lyrics==
Go ahead and help yourself 
if you think you can put me down 
You just wanna see a king losing his crown 
Let’s see some justice done in this dying town 
You go ahead and help yourself 
if you think you can force one more down

Yeah hello my new friends 
Well I’m your little fool 
‘Cause I get intimidated by the smell of death on you 
The road disappears before my car 
Yes I know what waits ahead 
I don’t need no pictures on the wall 
sending me messages from the dead

In the room above the club 
She cries herself asleep every night 
In the room above the club 
Why is it hard to treat her right 
In the room above the club 
There’s always room for you 
In the room above the club 
Yeah they’re just waiting 
for some unlucky thing like you

Come on tell me that punchline I know you’re dying to tell 
‘Cause I’m the only one that ever saw you 
pissing in your wishing well 
Yeah Come on Mr. Bartender I only want one more tear 
‘Cause some no name asshole outside 
wants to knock me back into the land of fear

In the room above the club 
You cry yourself to sleep every night 
In the room above the club 
Why is it so hard to treat you right 
In the room above the club 
Yeah there’s always room for you 
In the room above the club 
And they’re just waiting for some lucky thing like you 
In the room above the club 
They’re just waiting, yeah they’re just waiting 
In the room above the club 
They’re just waiting for some lucky thing like you
