[Intro]
Uh, this is a medley of all the numbers you just asked for
Um, this is actually a medley of, of our greatest hit
[Verse 1]
I'm so tired of workin' every day
Now the weekend's come I'm gonna throw my troubles away
If you've got the cab fare, mister, you'll do all right
I want to see the bright lights tonight
[Verse 2]
There's crazy people runnin' all over town
There's a silver band just marchin' up and down
The white boys are all spoiling for a fight
Well, I want to see the bright lights tonight
[Chorus]
Meet me at the station, don't be late
'Cause I need to spend some money and it just won't wait
Take me to the dance and hold me tight
I want to see the bright lights tonight
[Verse 3]
A couple of drunken nights rollin' on the floor
Is just the kind of mess I'm lookin' for
Well, I'm gonna dream till Monday comes in sight
I want to see the bright lights tonight
[Chorus]
Meet me at the station, don't be late
'Cause I need to spend some money and it just won't wait
Take me to the dance and hold me tight
I want to see the bright lights tonight
Take me to the dance and hold me tight
I want to see the bright lights tonight
I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight (Live, 1982) was written by Richard Thompson.
