whatcha gonna do when the last show is over and whatcha gonna do when you can t touch base and whatcha gonna do when the applause is all over and you can t turn your back on what you face and who you gonna be when the lights are all fading and who you gonna be when the band comes off and who you gonna be when your heart is still aching and you can t shrug it off with just a laugh encore encore the last song is over more more the crowd s on its feet sure sure adulation is so pleasing encore encore and whatcha gonna say to the last person leaving and whatcha gonna say when the light is turned off whatcha gonna do if you stop believing that you can t seem to find what might be lost and how you gonna feel if friends follow fortune how you gonna feel if the music dies how you gonna live with a soul sadly sighing into the wind that is our life  encore encore the last song is over more more the crowd s on its feet sure sure adulation is so pleasing encore encore
