“After Midnight” is the third track of Roan’s debut album, “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess”. With its bubblegum, catchy pop rhythm, Chappell sings about having fun and clubbing while doing a play on the saying ‘nothing good happens after midnight’.
[Verse 1]
My mama said, "Nothing good happens
When it's late and you're dancing alone"
She's in my head saying, "It's not attractive
Wearing that dress and red lipstick"
[Pre-Chorus]
This is what I wanted, this is what I like
I've been a good, good girl for a long time
But baby, I like flirting, a lover by my side
Can't be a good, good girl even if I tried
[Chorus]
'Cause after midnight
I'm feeling kinda freaky, maybe it's the club lights
I kinda wanna kiss your girlfriend if you don't mind
I love a little drama, let's start a bar fight
'Cause everything good happens after midnight
I'm feeling kinda freaky, maybe it's the moonlight
I kinda wanna kiss your boyfriend if you don't mind
I love a little "uh-huh", let's watch the sunrise
'Cause everything good happens after
[Verse 2]
I really want your hands on my body
A slow dance, baby, let's get it on
That’s my type of fun, that's my kind of party
Your hands on my body, your hot hands
[Pre-Chorus]
This is what I wanted, this is what I like
I've been a good, good girl for a long time
But baby, I like flirting, a lover by my side
Can't be a good, good girl even if I tried
[Chorus]
'Cause after midnight
I'm feeling kinda freaky, maybe it's the club lights
I kinda wanna kiss your girlfriend if you don't mind
I love a little drama, let's start a bar fight
'Cause everything good happens after midnight
I'm feeling kinda freaky, maybe it's the moonlight
I kinda wanna kiss your boyfriend if you don't mind
I love a little "uh-huh", let's watch the sunrise
'Cause everything good happens after midnight
[Bridge]
Baby, put your hands up
Be a freak in the club
Yeah, I'll make a move, then we're making out
Yeah, we're makin', make love
Yeah, we're makin', make love
Be a freak in the club
Be a freak in the club, yeah
[Chorus]
After midnight
I'm feeling kinda freaky, maybe it's the club lights
I kinda wanna kiss your girlfriend if you don't mind
I love a little drama, let's start a bar fight
'Cause everything good happens after midnight
I'm feeling kinda freaky, maybe it's the moonlight
I kinda wanna kiss your boyfriend if you don't mind
I love a little "uh-huh", let's watch the sunrise
'Cause everything good happens after
