Haha
Oh
I'll meet you at the park at 11 and don’t be late
You're in the right direction if you follow the lights down Broadway, yeah huh
Pass a gorilla while hes beating his chest
His girlfriend has a voodoo doll pinned to her vest
Don't worry ’bout 'em 'cause they're not gonna bother you, no no
Don't be scared of the living dead
They never heard a single word I said
Does anybody know
Where we're gonna go
When the lights come on? (When the lights come on?)
Does anybody know
Where we're gonna go
When the lights come on? Oh yeah
Oh, Tommy's at the bar and he’s holding us a place
The corner Cleopatra has been giving me the look of deep disgrace, yeah
She’s wearing Friday like her Sunday best
With some fat cat that she's laying to rest
You see her coming, then you know we gotta hit the road
The city’s sleeping on the village side
It ain't the same since Jimmy died
Does anybody know
Where we're gonna go
When the lights come on? (When the lights come on?)
Does anybody know
Where we're gonna go
When the lights come on?
I’m barking at the moon, yeah
I'll be home, but it won't be soon, no
Scary uncle Larry's got a 40 of propane
He's taking target practice in the corner of the downtown train, yeah
We jumped the gates and we ran outta sight
I'm in a taxi, but I'm caught at the light
I hope it's cool that I'm bringing a friend or two, oh
I left my keys at the Living End
Looks like I'm crashing at a stranger's again
Does anybody know
Where we're gonna go
When the lights come on? (When the lights come on?)
Does anybody know
Where we're gonna go
When the lights come on?
Does anybody know
Where we're gonna go
When the lights come on? (When the lights come on?)
Whoa, does anybody know
Where we're gonna go
When the lights come on?
