    Story Behind the Song
    When the boys first started jamming we had to practice at the Motel 6. We were kicked outta the basement by spifkin's mammy. The song tells the story of our trip into nowhere.

    Lyrics
    Motel 6

    © 2001 the boys from nowhere

    Five guys we started a band
    Went down to the basement and
    Plugged in, cranked the volume
    And we did our shtick

    One mom at the top of the stairs
    Pins and curlers in her hair
    Keep it quieter down there
    So we had to split

    CHORUS:

    Momma's on the stairs again
    She says were wasting time
    Don't you know your rock n' roll is over
    Momma's on the stairs again
    She says were wasting our lives
    Don't you know you boys are going nowhere?

    Five guys at the Motel 6
    Woulda been better if we had some chicks
    Coulda been better if we weren't all dicks at the Motel 6

    Johnny Doorguy we slid him a fiver
    He hooked us up with room number niner
    Where there were no adjacent whiners and we did our shtick

    CHORUS:

    Momma's on the phone again
    She says were wasting time
    Don't you know your rock n' roll is over
    Momma's on the phone again
    She says were wasting our lives
    Don't you know you boys are going nowhere?

    So boys pick up your guitars let's move on
    The cops are busting down the door
    They said our chances are slim to none
    And Slim is passed out on the floor

    Five guys at the Motel 6
    Woulda been better if we had some chicks
    Coulda been better if we weren't all dicks at the Motel 6

    Nowhere to play out on the town
    Authority rejects our sound
    Chances of success are down and Slim just left town

    CHORUS
