Everybody here knows you’re crazy Been bouncin’ like a bird on a limb since the minute they let you in You’re not the stone, not the daisy It’s a metaphor you’ve heard before but the definition gets hazy
Everybody here livin’ like no tomorrow Too groovy like a drive-in movie when I let the music soothe me The jubilation and the sorrow It’s an avenue you must pursue even if you have to beg and borrow
Places, people Places, people Gotta get this started Do it right now, in a little bit But not after you’ve departed Places, people Places, people Gotta get this right Do it right now, in a little bit Haven’t got all night Night, all night, yeah
Everybody there thinks you’re lazy Got a quiz on the state of the biz at your parents’ holiday party I hope that bird is mighty tasty Your Uncle Ricky put on the lampshade and your daddy on the couch cold wasted Don’t ever let it get you down You can make a getaway plan to get yourself downtown And then with all your friends around This is now the place to be and everybody’s getting down
Places, people Places, people Gotta get this started Do it right now, in a little bit But not after you’ve departed Places, people Places, people Gotta get this right Do it right now, in a little bit But I haven’t got all night Night, all night, yeah
