The Hold Steady Massive Nights Lyrics

The guys are feelin' good about their liquor run,
the girls are kinda flirtin' with the setting sun.
We all kinda fumbled through the Jitterbug.
We were all powered up on some new upper drug.

And everyone was funny, and everyone was pretty,
and everyone was coming towards the center of the city.
The dancefloor was crowded, the bathrooms were worse,
we kissed in your car, and we drank from your purse.

I had my mouth on her nose
when the chaperone said that we were dancin' too close.

We had some massive nights,
and every song was right.
And all that wine was tight,
and your friends are pretty cool
and my friends were actin' cool.
And there weren't any fights
there's usually one or two (There's usually one or two) Some guys, they get a little bit uptight
some girls, they got somethin' to prove (There's usually one or two.).

We had some massive highs,
we had some crushing lows.
We had some l___y, little crushes;
we had those all-ages, hardcore, matinee shows.

And I was down on my knees
when the chaperone said that it was time for me to leave.

We had some massive nights,
and every song was right.
Oh, that wine was tight.
Yeah, your friends are pretty cool
and my friends are actin' cool.
And there weren't any fights
there's usually one or two (There's usually one or two.).
Some guys, they get a little bit uptight
some girls, they got somethin' to prove (There's usually one or two).

We had some massive nights.
We had some massive nights.
We had some massive nights.
We had some massive nights.
We had some massive nights,
and every song was right.
Oh, they wind us tight,
and your friends are pretty cool,
and my friends are actin' cool.

And she had the gun in her mouth,
and she was shootin' up in her dreams
when the chaperone said that
we'd been crowned
the King and the Queen.
