Sweepin the floors, open up the doors
|
Yeah turn on the lights, getting ready for the night
|
Nobody's romancing, 'cause its too early for dancing
|
But here comes the music...
|
Bright lights flashing
|
They cover up your lack of so many people
|
So many problems
|
So many reason to buy another round
|
Drink it down
|
Just another night on the town
|
With the big man, money man, better then the other man
|
He got the plan, with the million dollar give a damn
|
What nobody understands
|
Become a smaller man, the bright lights keep flashin,
|
Women keep on dancing with the clowns,
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
|
They pick me up when I'm down,
|
Yeah, yeah,
|
The rodeo clowns
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they pick me up when I'm down
|
The disco ball's spinnin', all the music and the women
|
And the shots of tequila,
|
Man they say that they need ya
|
What they really need, is just a little room to breath
|
Teeny bopping disco queen
|
She barely understands her dreams of belly button rings
|
And other kinds of things
|
Symbolic of change, but the thing that is strange
|
Is that the changes occur
|
And now she's just a part of the herd, yeah, yeah, yeah
|
Man i thought that you heard
|
Yeah, yeah
|
The changes occurred
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah, just a part of the herd
|
Lights out, shut down, late night, wet ground
|
You walk by look at him, but he can't look at you
|
Yeah, you might feel pity, but he only feels the ground
|
You understand moves, but he only knows let down
|
By the corner, there's another one
|
Reaching out a hand, coming from a broken man
|
Well he tried to live, but he's done trying
|
Not dead, but definitely dying
|
With the rest of the clowns
|
Yeah, yeah
|
mmm mmm mmmm mmmm
|
With the rest of the clowns
|
Sweepin the floors, open up the doors,
|
Yeah turn on the lights, getting ready for the night
|
Nobody's romancing, 'cause its too early for dancing
|
But here comes the music
|
