Nightlife


© 2001 Gene Lipps


Monday morning
Set your sights
On that fix you need
Come Friday night
Vicious cycle
You just can't escape
What a shame it is
you always
Have to wait


And you're wearing sweet perfume
Floating scent caress the sight of you
Indiscretion in the curve of your jeans
Look the way you did the day you turned 19


Place looks crowded, guess we'll have to park around the block
Grab your little purse and lock the car
Order up a whiskey on the rocks
When you make your way up to the bar

Now your living in the night life
Groovin in the night life
Living in the night life , yeah yeah


Rocknrollers feel the beat
By the way they move you know the band is tight
And the rhythm of the bass guitar
Drives you deeper til you don't know where you are
Past the point of no return
Close your eyes because the smoke it making them burn
Did he ask you if you're havin' fun
Oh so glad you took the stick out of the mud


If it gets any louder, gonna need a microphone to think
Feel your pocket for your Visa card
Making a decision to buy another drink
But rising in the morning might be hard


Now your living in the night life
Groovin in the night life
Living in the night life , yeah yeah
