Lyrics:

You walked out and my world caved in
I couldn't get back on my feet again
I tried self-help books, even meditation
Searched the want-ads out of desperation

Well, the classified said, 'Attention broken hearts
Meet at Murphy's Lounge at 8:00 sharp'
I got there early and the man at the door
Said, 'We've got the cure you've been searching for'

He handed me a list and said, 'Here's what you need
The rules of the twelve-step recovery'

Friday nights, neon lights, find a party crowd
Jukebox, let it rock, let your hair down
Howl at the moon, shoot a little pool
Get out on the dance floor with somebody new
Let the tables turn, let the bridges burn
Letting go of the memory
Well, that's the mend a broken heart, make a new start
Twelve-step recovery

Well, I gotta admit I had my doubts at first
But I figured, 'What the heck, let's see if it works'
So I followed each step down to the letter
Almost right away, I started feeling better

Instead of missing you, now you'll find me
Practicing the twelve-step recovery

Friday nights, neon lights, find a party crowd
Jukebox, let it rock, let your hair down
Howl at the moon, shoot a little pool
Get out on the dance floor with somebody new
Let the tables turn, let the bridges burn
Letting go of the memory
Well, that's the mend a broken heart, make a new start
Twelve-step recovery

Friday nights, neon lights, find a party crowd
Jukebox, let it rock, let your hair down
Howl at the moon, shoot a little pool
Get out on the dance floor with somebody new
You've gotta let the tables turn, let the bridges burn
Letting go of the memory
Well, that's the mend a broken heart, make a new start
Twelve-step recovery

Well, that's the mend a broken heart, make a new start
Twelve-step recovery
