ANOTHER WEEK HAS COME AND GONE
IT’S FRIDAY ONCE AGAIN
GOT A WHOLE NEW BUNCH OF BRAND NEW SONGS
I GOTTA LEARN ‘EM BEFORE THEN

A SHOT OF MORNING GLORY
GOTTA GET MY MOOD JUST RIGHT
‘COS WHEN THE NIGHT COMES CALLIN’
GOTTA ROCK ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT

A FANCY SILVER JACKET
NICE AND CLEAN LIKE SHINY TIN
I’M THE COVERS STAR AT THE PIANO BAR
BUT THE NERVES KEEP CREEPIN’ IN

SO I TAKE A SHOT OF WHISKEY
AND PUT ON MY BAR ROOM GRIN
LIKE A LAMB LED TO THE SLAUGHTER
I HEAD FOR THE CITY OF SIN

OOOH OOOH OOOH OOOH

“QUIET NOW” SAYS THE BARMAN
PEOPLE’S FOOD IS ON THE PLATE
IT’S THE FOOTBALL ON THE TV
THAT’S THE SOUND I’VE LEARNED TO HATE

BUT WHEN YOU POUR YOUR HEART OUT
ON A STAGE OF BROKEN DREAMS
YOU LOOK OUT AT THE CROWDED BAR
WHERE NOTHING’S AS IT SEEMS


THEY ASK YOU FOR THE SAME OLD SONGS
AND YOU SING THEM WITH A SMILE
YOU WONDER WHERE YOUR LOVE HAS GONE
AND YOU STAY FOR JUST A WHILE

AND THE BARMAN TELLS ME ONE MORE SONG
SO I’D BETTER MAKE IT GOOD
‘COS IT’S LAST DRINKS IN THIS ONE NIGHT STAND
AND THE OWNER SAYS I SHOULD

COS I’M ALONE IN THE SHADOWS
I’M ALONE IN THE NIGHT
I’M AWAKE ALL THROUGH THE DAYLIGHT
BUT I’M ASLEEP HERE IN THE NIGHT.

COS I’M ALONE IN THE SHADOWS
SINGING SONGS ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT
I’M AWAKE ALL THROUGH THE DAYLIGHT
BUT I’LL BE SLEEPING HERE TONIGHT.
