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
At breaking the rules once I learn the games
Get up, life's too quick, I know someplace sick
Where this chick'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 New Years Day
Take me out tonight

When I get a wink from the doorman
Do 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
Well, 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
But all the scars from the nevers and maybes die

Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You're sweet, wanna hit the streets?
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
