You said, "Come on, it'll do you good" I said, "Nah, I dont think I should" "You're always saying that, though" "Yeah, well... maybe I like staying home" You stood there waiting by the door While I was finding reasons four or more "I've got work, I'm knees hurt, it's cold" You just laughed, "You're not that old" So I grabbed my coat, locked up the flat Checked my phone, then checked it again You said, "Stop overthinking everything" And dragged me out into the weekend I was already planning my escape Before we'd even got inside You bought the first one, I took a sip Then something started changing in my mind First drink, I'm still keeping quiet Second one, I'm talking shite You laughed and said, "Here she is" Like you'd been waiting all night Now I'm out tonight And I don't know what you've done to me I'm out tonight And I'm dancing like nobody's watching me I was gonna stay at home I was gonna say I'm tired Now I'm three drinks down And I'm absolutely wired Yeah, I'm out tonight And I don't wanna go home You disappeared to get another round I was standing there just looking around Trying not to look like I was having fun Then that tune came on and suddenly I'm gone I knew every word, don't know how I'm jumping up and down with a drink in my hand You came back laughing, "What happened to you?" I said, "Leave it out, I'm enjoying myself" Someone knocked my drink across my shoes I laughed instead of getting in a mood Then I lost my coat, lost my phone Couldn't care less, I wasn't going home I don't even know half the people here But somehow everybody's singing near And that little voice inside my head That usually says "leave" has gone dead I'm out tonight And I don't recognise myself I'm out tonight Couldn't give a shit about anything else I was gonna stay at home Now I'm right here in the middle of it You dragged me out And look at me I'm actually loving it I'm out tonight Yeah, I'm out tonight And I don't wanna go home Yeah, I said I wouldn't come, but I'm here now Standing by the speakers like, "Where's the beer now?" You said one drink, yeah, we both know that's a lie Look at the state of me, I'm having the time of my life Usually I'm home by half past ten Phone on silent, don't wanna speak to anyone Tonight I'm in the middle of a crowd going mad And I'm thinking, "Bloody hell, this isn't half bad" No plans, no stress, no checking the time Just bass in my chest and a drink in my hand You keep looking over like you can't believe I'm the same miserable git you dragged off the sofa last week So turn that up, don't ask me twice I'm finally out and I'm feeling alright Tomorrow I'll probably pretend I hated it But right now? Yeah... I'm absolutely loving it I think I needed this I think you were right I think I've spent too long Watching life from the outside Don't tell anyone tomorrow I'll deny the whole thing But right now, turn it up I wanna hear this thing I'm out tonight And I don't care who's watching me I'm out tonight And I'm finally letting myself be No more standing by the wall No more "maybe next time" You dragged me through that door Now look at me go Yeah, I'm out tonight And I don't wanna go home I'm out tonight God knows what you've done to me I'm out tonight... And I'm having a fucking brilliant time.
