Man your looking like you've been to hell and back

Like a locomotive hit you and dragged you down a track

You can't remember what she said or what you did last night

I guess all the shots you had might've started some kind of fight

Ch

Good Morning train wreck

There ain't nothing clearer

Than the first look in the mirror

And you know the guy your seeing is a mess

Mess

It might be time for a reality check

Good morning train wreck

Wreck 4 times

V2

Go get yourself some coffee and try to clear your head

You better call her and apologize at least for what you did

Don't wait to hear about it from one her friends

Or tomorrow you'll end up talking to yourself again

Ch

Bridge

You'd think by now you'd stay out of trouble

Instead of waking up and seeing double

Double trouble

I think this is a perfect representation--both lyrics and presentation--of waking up with a hangover and worrying about what you did the night before. It's a snapshot of a moment in time. You can tell he knows he should change his behavior and you know it isn't going to happen. At least not until he has some kind of wake up call that scares him. I have no ideas for improvement.
