There’s a gravity in me
Pulling mo to want to see
What is going on tonight
Beneath the electric starlight
I like to mix with walks of life
Who live life on the other side
Pulling muscles from their shell,
A place to some that looks like hell
Oh the classic song that the jukebox is on has me movin’
Oh the faces here make it so surreal
Oh, in the company of pretty girls and near vagrants
One drink away from sleeping on the pavement
I’m not quite sure what I find so appealing
About the happy hour stealing
[Chorus]
A party after party ’till it started to get grating
Another and another what are we celebrating
There’s always something not to miss
Diving back in the abyss
And it gets so very stale
But tomorrow’s a new tale
In the frolic room
The seat I assume
And I’m drawn to the night
And it’s damn neon light
Where are we meeting up at?
Let me guess bet I know
Does it have a sign in the window
Ice cold six packs to go
Sleep it off if you have to
There’s a booth always in shadow
The reality is all around you
It’s the best reality show
Oh, in the company of the privileged and
the nearly damned
Mixing like a cocktail of pure spirits slammed
In the danger zone is where you’ll find me
In a certain dive so iviting
[Chorus]
