Lyrics The Cataracs

The Cataracs

77 88

77 88

Why this night have to come so late

I was 23, she was 33

Baby stop that clock

And hold me forever (forever)

Hep hep, hep hep

Hep hep, hep hep

We took a show in Tahoe, next to Reno, at a casino

I think I’m gonna play a game or two

Maybe roulette and blackjack to double my stack, stack

Who’s that lady sitting at my table

You turn me on like digital cable

But she’s analog, grew up in the seventies

Twisting and turning the knob

Wait, there’s nothing wrong

Please don’t count me out

Let me bring you back to prom at your daddy’s house

(Wait) there’s nothing wrong

Please don’t count me out

Let me bring you back to prom at your daddy’s house

You got me singin’ 77 88

Why this night have to come so late

I was 23, she was 33

Baby stop that clock

And hold me forever

Hep hep, hep hep

Hep hep, hep hep

I've had two girls and I've had five bitches

But my new main is better than all the side dishes combined

What you looking for?

You at the supermarket, shopping, spend all that time

Who you cookin’ for?

I know you’re matured

But I’m considerate considerate

Computers are confusing and I’m very tact-literate

My hands on your waist, you say ‘stop it’

But I’m advanced for my age,

Okay OJ I got that car for rent

That car for rent, be calm, rewind and pop it in

If it single, beat it up like a Gemini Ringo

I'ma hit this always like Bingo (Bingo?)

That wasn’t an old joke

I’m 23 but we grown folks

And I do what them grown man don't do

But that grey hair that won’t grow

Hey slow poke, I’m a fast learner

Teach me your ways

But if we keep on f’ing, it’s gon’ mess up my grades

Okay okay

I know we from two different generations

But me and you, we’re the perfect combination

77 88

Why this night have to come so late

I was 23, she was 33

Baby stop that clock

And hold me forever

And hold me forever

And hold me forever

And hold me forever

[repeat continuously]

How we supposed to grow old together

When your love [?] keeps me young forever

[x4]
