Nightlife

Scissor Sisters - Night Life

I was a young girl
Knew next to nothing
Living in the suburbs
And my heart was lusting
For a new way
And a new sound
Crawled over my hang-ups
To the underground

I had a breakthrough
I had to shake you
You couldn't come to
To see my point of view
I had a breakthrough
It was my debut
It didn't faze you
But it meant something to me

Night Life
Beneath the surface
Night Life
Some say it's worthless
Night life
It's a state of being
Inside
It's the song you're singing
Night Life
If there's no spirit
Night Life
Then don't go near it
Night Life
It's a high turnover
Inside
You can find your life in the night life

If you are feeling
Like you don't have nothing
Under pressure in a cooker
With your head in the oven
There's a new way
So come on down
Life in limbo will be over
When you're underground

You need a breakthrough
You need to make due
You need to come to
A brand new point of view
You need to break through
And then get wise to
All that is taboo
And you'll be something to see

Night Life
Beneath the surface
Night Life
Some say it's worthless
High Life
It's a state of being
Inside
It's the song you're singing
Night Life
It's the heart you're racing
Night Life
It's the pill you're tasting
Night Life
It's the cash you're making
Inside
You can find your life in the nightlife

Beneath the surface
Some say it's worthless
It's a low-cut ceiling
It's the rush you're feeling
It can break your spirit
If you let them near it
It's the back you're breaking
Are you in it for the Nightlife?

Find your way to hide in the nightlife
You can find your life in the nightlife
