Last Night Songtext
von Joelistics

she said last night
she had a big night
and the lights on the dance floor were real bright
the drinks kept coming and the more they came
the more she felt like herself again
now she got the binge drink
oozing with instinct
to try and make life all new and shiny
extract the slime and the sleaze and demeaning
and win back a little more self esteem

and so she′s got a story for the girls on monday
the same damn story she told em last week
she hooked up passed out fell down woke up
walked home carrying her heels and handbag

it's too bad she broke up with him
she never used to get like that with him
still she won′t call, won't text, won't ring
she don′t wanna be the one to give in


i mean, she′s holding on to her pride
besides, she's probably moved on, right?

last night
i had a big night
now i feel a little shaky on the inside
and there′s no time like the present
i'll stay in bed until eleven in china

piece together all of the things i did
i can′t believe some of the things i said
all i need to get me through
is sunlight, coffee and a picture of you

all i need is you


he said last night
he had a big night
now he's tryina recall what what it looked like
(what′s it look like?)
and it's a long way down in the dim light
when you can't think right
and you′re tryina crawl up an incline
and he′s got a little bruised up black eye
and he's got a strong urge to have a big cry
head like an egg when it′s being fried up
he ain't too sure that he even had a good time

he never used to be like that with her
he never used to get so high around her
now every night out is a permanent blur
with an explanation that′s beyond words
he sits on the couch
cottonball mouth
watching the telly tryina dumb himself down
telling himself it's time to pull his head in
but next weekend he′s gonna do it again
(and again
and again
and again
and again
and again
and again
and again
and again)

last night
i had a big night
now i feel a little shaky on the inside
and there's no time like the present
i'll stay in bed until eleven in china

piece together all of the things i did
i can′t believe some of the things i said
all i need to get me through
is sunlight, coffee and a picture of you

all i need is you

again, shipwrecked inside my head
again, shipwrecked inside my head
again, shipwrecked inside my head
again, shipwrecked inside my head
and a good night′s sleep
and some pain relief
and a week of work
and a hot shower
and a trip to the coast
and some eggs on toast
and some radiohead
and to stay in bed

all i need is you
