Out Tonight
[MIMI:Verse 1]
What's the time?
Well, it's gotta be close to midnight
My body's talking to me
It says, "Time for danger"
It says, "I wanna commit a crime
Wanna be the cause of a fight
I wanna put on a tight skirt
And flirt with a stranger"

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I've had a knack from way back
At breaking the rules once I learn the game
Get up! Life's too quick, I know someplace sick
Where this chick'll dance in the flames
We don't need any money, I always get in for free
You can get in too if you get in with me

[Chorus 1]
Let’s go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna play? Let’s run away
We won’t be back before it’s New Year’s Day
Take me out tonight, meow!

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Mmm
When I get a wink from the doorman
Do you know how lucky you'Il be?
That you're on line with the feline of Avenue B
[Chorus 2]
Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna prowl, be my night owl
Well, take my hand we're gonna howl, out tonight

[Bridge]
In the evening, I’ve got to roam
Can’t sleep in the city of neon and chrome
Feels too damn much like home
When the Spanish babies cry
So let’s find a bar
So dark we forget who we are
Where all the scars
From the never's and maybe's die

[Chorus 3]
Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You’re sweet, wanna hit the street?
Wanna wail at the moon like a cat in heat
Just take me out tonight

[Outro]
Please take me... out tonight
Don’t forsake me... out tonight
I’ll let you make me... out tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight
