Lyrics The Hold Steady

The Hold Steady

Massive Night

The guys are feeling good about their liquor run

The girls are kinda flirting with the setting sun

We all kind of fumbled through the jitter bug

We were all powered up on some new upper drug

And everything was partying

Everyone was pretty

And everyone was coming towards the center of the city

The dancefloor was crowded, the bathrooms were worse

We kissed in your car and we drank from your purse

I had my mouth on her nose when the chaperon said we were dancing too close

We had some massive nights

We got the songs just right

And all i want is time

Yea your friends are pretty cool and my friends were acting cool

There weren't any fights

There's usually one or two

Some guys they get a little bit uptight

Some girls they got something to prove

We had some massive highs

We had some crushing lows

We had some lusty little crushes

We had those all-ages hardcore matinйe shows

And i was down on my knees when the chaperon said that it was time for me to leave

We had some massive nights

Every song was right

And all i wanted was time

Yea your friends are pretty cool and my friends were acting cool

There weren't any fights

There's usually one or two

Some guys they get a little bit uptight

Some girls they got something to prove

We had some massive nights

There were some massive nights

We had some massive nights

Every song was right

And all i wanted was time

Yea your friends are pretty cool and my friends were acting cool

She had a gun in her mouth

And she was shootin' up at her dreams

When the chaperon said that we'd been crowned

The king and the queen
