Someone's dancing on the table
|
Someone's got an old book in the back
|
Some old jocks are sitting round their neighbors
|
Exaggerating their stats
|
Again
|
There's Mr. D.E. in the corner
|
Dancing with Miss Virginia former
|
I didn't think I'd really have a good time
|
But i don't remember you looking so fine
|
|
It's been a long dark night alright
|
I've been running on a low love light
|
Maybe the longest night
|
Maybe it's over, over tonight
|
|
Most everyone all around
|
Most have an intersting story
|
Even those who don't have much to say
|
Even interest me when they're just boring to him
|
And then there's Mr. B.M.O.C.
|
Talking so loud to Mr. P.E.
|
Someone said that his best days are past
|
But I know this first chance won't be the last
|
|
It's been a long dark night alright
|
I've been running on a low love light
|
Maybe the longest night
|
Maybe it's over, over tonight
|
|
Hey now Mr. D.J.
|
Keep those good songs coming
|
Cause I'm having such a good time tonight
|
Moving making up for so much long lost time
|
Not much going since the old days
|
One long solo ride
|
I came here just to live in the past
|
But maybe I'm seeing the future at last
|
|
It's been a long dark night alright
|
I've been running on a low love light
|
Maybe the longest night
|
Maybe it's over, over tonight
|
