lyrics

I'm payin' rent
But there just ain't much left over for me.
For a shoe box,
It's the place where I go to sleep,
Lay my head down but forget my dreams.
Am I powerless,
When it comes to the check that I'm bringin' home?
Cuz common sense,
Says I should leave this all behind,
Can't be treading water at 25.

Waited all week for the chance to break free
So I'll call up my friends
And we'll hit the streets.
Worked so long, almost forgot how to play,
We'll raise our voices now
And no one can take 'em away.

Cuz we want the night! (ooh ooh ooh)
Leave our troubles in the daylight
Give us the night (ooh ooh ooh)
And leave or troubles in the daylight
We want the night!

New York
The city is a playground for VIPs
So dive bars
Are the place where we spend our time,
Cuz cash goes fast in a single night.

(Excitement rising as the sun goes down,
Let's raise a glass and toast to make each second count!
We're gonna leave our mark on the town,
Getting out of control, dancing till we hit the ground!)

And there's no telling
There's no telling
What to expect or who we'll meet
There's no telling
What the night brings now!
