Massive Night Lyrics - Boys And Girls In America - The Hold Steady

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 massive 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 massive 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 massive 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 massive nights 

We had some massive nights 

We had some massive nights 

We had some massive nights 

We had some massive 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
