Out Tonight Songtext
von Jonathan Larson

What′s the time?
Well, it's gotta be close to midnight
My body′s talking to me
It says, "Time for danger"
It says, "I wanna commit a crime
Wanna be the cause of a fight
I wanna put on a tight skirt
And flirt with a stranger"

I've had a knack from way back
Of breaking the rules
Once I learn the game
Get up, life's too quick
I know some place sick
With this chick, you′ll dance in the flames

We don′t need any money
I always get in for free
You can get in, too
If you get in with me


Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna play?
Let′s run away
We won't be back before it′s Christmas day
Take me out tonight

Meow
Ha!
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Yeah, yeah

When I get a wink from the doorman
D'you know how lucky you′ll be?
That you're on line with the feline of Avenue B

Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna prowl?
Be my night owl?
Just take my hand, we′re gonna howl
Out tonight


In the evening, I′ve got to roam
Can't sleep in the city of neon and chrome
Feels too damn much like home
When the Spanish babies cry
So let′s find a bar
So dark, we forget who we are
Where all the scars of the nevers and maybes die

Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
Uh-uh-uh-uh ow
You′re sweet
Wanna hit the street?
Wanna wail at the moon like a cat in heat?
Just take me out tonight

Please, take me out tonight
Don't forsake me out tonight
I′ll let you make me out tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight!
