[Intro — whispered, then shouted] Lights out… Game on… LET’S GO! [Verse 1] Black boots stomping down Sunset Drive Everybody’s looking for a reason to feel alive She’s got a smile like a loaded gun I got a tank full of gas and a night to outrun Neon dripping from the hotel sign She said, “You look like trouble.” I said, “Baby, you’re right.” She laughed so hard that she spilled her drink Then pulled me closer and said, “Let’s see how fast you think.” [Pre-Chorus] We’re running red lights in a borrowed car Singing every bad song like we’re rock stars No tomorrow, no turning back— Put the pedal down and attack! [Chorus — gang vocals] MIDNIGHT MAYHEM! RAISE HELL TONIGHT! WE’RE GONNA SHAKE THIS CITY TILL THE SUN COMES UP IN SIGHT! HEY! HEY! — Come on! HEY! HEY! — All night long! MIDNIGHT MAYHEM! WHERE EVERYTHING GOES WRONG! [Verse 2] She stole my sunglasses at a quarter past two Said, “They look better on me anyway, fool.” I said, “Keep ’em, baby, keep the attitude—” She said, “Buy me another!” I said, “That works too!” The drummer’s on the bar, the bass player’s gone Somebody’s screaming that the party’s too strong The guitar player grins as he strikes that chord And every single fool in the room hits the floor! [Pre-Chorus] We got lipstick on the microphone High-heeled trouble calling my phone If this is wrong, then let it be— Tonight belongs to you and me! [Chorus] MIDNIGHT MAYHEM! RAISE HELL TONIGHT! WE’RE GONNA SHAKE THIS CITY TILL THE SUN COMES UP IN SIGHT! HEY! HEY! — Come on! HEY! HEY! — All night long! MIDNIGHT MAYHEM! WHERE EVERYTHING GOES WRONG! [Guitar Solo] Yeah! Come on! Whoa-oh-oh! GO! [Breakdown] One for the money! TWO FOR THE SHOW! Three for the girl who said, “BABY, LET’S GO!” Four for the whiskey— FIVE FOR THE SIN! Six for the door— WE’RE NOT GOING IN! [Final Chorus — massive gang vocals] MIDNIGHT MAYHEM! RAISE HELL TONIGHT! WE’RE GONNA SHAKE THIS CITY TILL THE SUN COMES UP IN SIGHT! HEY! HEY! — Come on! HEY! HEY! — All night long! MIDNIGHT MAYHEM! SING IT LOUD! MIDNIGHT MAYHEM! NO RULES! NO SHAME! IF YOU CAME HERE LOOKING FOR TROUBLE— REMEMBER MY NAME! [Outro] MAY-HEM! MAY-HEM! MAY-HEM ALL NIGHT! WHOA-OH-OH!
