"NIGHTLIFE" LYRICS
ANGLES
opinions will vary
facts won't change
changing agendas
set in their ways
your contradiction
it runs so deep
your manifesto
won't frighten me
stay argumentative
to prove yourself
distort information
promote better health
defending your character
by starting a fight
it's all in the angles
when you get them right, yeah
it's all in the angles
it's all in the angles
it's all in the angles
it's all in the angles
yeah...
ANGELS LIVE IN MY TOWN
if i could try, you know I would
if I could fly you know I would
if I could give you everything
sell my soul to make you sing
don't you know I would
yeah I would...
when I'm trapped inside my thoughts
you know I hate the way they talk
what they say, yeah what they say
it don't matter anyway
anyway...
late at night, I get so scared
behind the lights, when you disappear
if you could help me to get by
then these feelings would subside
I know they would
yeah they would
but the angels all around
swimming floating, coming down
yeah the angels are here living in my town
angels are here living in my town
yeah the angels are here living in my town
SOLO
when I'm trapped inside my thoughts
you know I hate the way they talk
what they say, yeah what they say
it don't matter anyway
it don't matter anyway
and the angels all around
swimming floating, crashing down
yeah the angels are here living in my town
angels are here living in my town
yeah the angels are here living in my town
it don't matter anyway
what they say...
it don't matter what they say
what they say...
CLUB INTERNATIONAL
flying high over tokyo
so far away where she wants to go
just an ounce of shame but that's the price of fame
but when the deadbolt locks no one needs to know
(what's going down)
"and I got it, I got it, you know you just want it
and all you got to do is just say the word to me"
"so are you coming, you coming? you're know you're gonna love it
'cause everyone knows I'm the best thing that money can buy"
(just give me a try)
jet set
fly high
straight up into the sky
long trip
you come down
long way back to the ground
run cold when you
you run hot when you
run 'til you lose the plot
is it everything you wished
is it everything you wanted
did it live up to the dream
now you're club international
you're international
international
different night on different arm
felt up and fucked you don't get alarmed
credit cards and crooked lines
cranked and cracked and tired
but you still feel fine
"do you got it, you got it? I know just how you want it
I'll do it all night as long as the drinks are free"
"so are you buying, you buying, you know I'll keep trying
just keep it all coming until the sun starts to rise"
jet set
fly high
straight up into the sky
long way
to fall down
long way back to the ground
run cold when you
you run hot when you
run 'til you lose the plot
is it everything you wished
is it everything you wanted
did it live up to the dream
now you're club international
COME ALIVE
got the flower dangling in your hair
you got the autopilot cruise control stare
hairline crack, cellophane lips
nicotine stains on your fingertips
fiberglass trophy idles in the drive
wake up tonight and come alive
come alive
mai tais in a monogrammed glass
penthouse view, millionaire class
tell me what you think 'cause I could
get used to this
the tokens of appreciation gleam
and all of the colors are brighter than you dreamed
than you dreamed
then you dream...
the tokens of appreciation gleam
but the ivory tower is higher than it seems
than it seems
it don't matter what you do
I don't care about what you do
don't want to know about what you do
but don't ever lose your cool
ELECTROLUX
I could hear the car keys dangling
and I could hear the bedroom door creaking
I can't remember what went on last night
it don't really look like you'll stick around
to tell me
bright light dreams
spotlight fiend
cold green eyes reflect and beam
bright light dreams
spotlight fiend
when tomorrow comes around
well maybe you'll remember me
we step into the car you take me for a ride
and you promise everything inside
you say yes
you say no
but you know just where to go
until you disappear in the backseat glare
so tell me
JUST WHAT I LIKE
She likes the taste of adrenalin
I like the way that she let me win
Makes my world spin so so fast
Every day it feels like my last
It's not like I don't
Want to but maybe
I feel better when you say my name
You say my name
Carousel of lights and sound
Every time you come around
You know all the things I like
I love when you put up a fight
Put up a fight
You pull me in then you push me out
Knocked down, drag around (drag around)
Why can't you make any room for me
Let me in or just let me be
It's not like I'm just
Looking for a friend
But I feel better when you say my name
Just say my name
Carousel of lights and sound
Every time you come around
You know all the things I like
I love when you put up a fight
Like a rocket shooting past
You burn so bright but never last
You know all the things I like
I love when you put up a fight
Put up a fight
NEW YORK GIRLS
all lose and ragged
all fake and tragic
without a plan
without a scheme
but I know just what you need
yeah I know just what you need
LA hot and New York wise and the secret hides behind your eyes
LA hot and New York wise and the secret hides behind your eyes
everyone wants you and everyone needs you
and everyone wants to be you baby
everyone wants you and everyone needs you
and everybody wants a little piece of you maybe
thrift store sheen
and pricey magazines
subway chaffeur
that's what you prefer
station to station
place to place
ride away from what you cannot face
sparks are flying off the tracks
but you're always one stop away
SECONDHAND
on your marks get set
so let's go
you know I can cath you
or maybe you don't
time is getting short
it's t-t-ticking away
and I'm never gonna let it get
let it get away
secondhand spinning round and round
dizzy whirling six feet off the ground
secondhand spinning round and round
counting off the moments 'til I fall
trip and fall inside your tracks
disappear inside
a vanishing act
cute cute
the audience applauds
and you you
you try to make me go along
ain't gonna go along
secondhand spinning round and round
dizzy whirling six feet off the ground
secondhand spinning round and round
counting off the moments 'til I fall
on your marks get set
so let's go
on your marks get set
so let's go
get set get set let's go
CHORUS
secondhand spinning round and round
dizzy whirling six feet off the ground
secondhand spinning round and round
counting off the moments 'til I fall
SUPERSTAR
cheek to cheek
with the runway chic, yeah
what's your name, where you from
who ya know, what'cha got?
violet baby, pretty baby
do you want to see your name in lights?
'cuz I could do this
and I could do that
so do ya think it could be a worth a night together
you're going to have your way with me
i can see
CHORUS
smile pretty for the camera baby you're a
superstar
plastic queen
teenage dream
celluloid superstar
ooh ooh...
rose petals on the limousine floor
a grand entrance through a stained glass door
shutter clicking vultures clicking through the night
'til you burn yourself out in the flashbulb lights yeah
TRANSACTIONS
back in the corners
of a dimly lit room
it may not have you yet, but it's going to soon
something taking place
something changing hands
more than an acquaintance
but not exactly friends
under disco lights
in the dead of night
bathroom stalls
thin walls
no one needs to see
‘cuz we’re thick as thieves
CHORUS
transactions, interactions, distractions
gonna wear you down
transactions, distractions
wear you down
from point a to point b
nothing happening in between
all you ever wanted
all you wanted was
just to fade into the other ones
into the other ones
back in the corners
of a dimly lit room
it may not have you yet,
but it's going to soon
no one says a word
no one saw a thing
nothing happens here
not a single thing
no one ever sees
too afraid to say
business as usual
just look the other way
