The Hold Steady - Ma**ive Night lyrics

The guys were feeling good about their liquor run The girls were kinda flirting 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 dance floor 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 chaperon said that we were dancing too close We had some ma**ive nights And every song was right And all that wine was tight And your friends were pretty cool And my friends were acting cool There weren't any fights There's usually one or two There's some guys, they get a little bit uptight Some girls, they got something to prove We had some ma**ive highs We had some crushing lows We had some lusty little crushes We had those all ages hardcore matinee shows And I was down on my knees When the chaperon said that it was time for me to leave We had some ma**ive nights And every song was right All that wine was tight Yeah, your friends were pretty cool And my friends were acting cool There weren't any fights There's usually one or two Some guys, they get a little bit uptight Some girls, they got something to prove We had some ma**ive nights We had some ma**ive nights We had some ma**ive nights We had some ma**ive nights We had some ma**ive nights When every song was right All that wine was tight Your friends were pretty cool And my friends were acting cool She had the gun in her mouth That she was shooting up at her dreams When the chaperon said that we'd been crowned The king and the queen
