Sleeping through the day 'cause I work all night
Get out the way things are coming alive
Look over there, another fight
I guess I should've seen the warning signs

We could be together
(I'm not looking for a fight)
Change the world forever
(Just wanna make it through the night)
Make it all together
(They're really giving me the...)
Eye-ey-eye-ey-eye-ey-eye

Think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
Think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it

I think I'm gonna loose it

The walls are growing ears
I'm paranoid
No need to fear what you can't avoid
Don't let 'em in, don't let 'em out
I'll give you something you can scream about

We could be together
(I'm not looking for a fight)
Change the world forever
(Just wanna make it through the night)
Make it all together
(They're really giving me the...)
Eye-ey-eye-ey-eye-ey-eye

Think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
Think I'm gonna loose it
Think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
Think I'm gonna loose it

No, no, no nothing's wrong with dreaming
Go, go, go you're dreaming all away
One love, one life, and that's enough to get you through the night
Tomorrow's gonna be a brighter day
Hey, hey, hey!

I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it
I think I'm gonna loose it, loose it, loose it

We could be together
Change the world forever
Make it all together
(They're really giving me the)
Eye

No, no, no nothing's wrong with dreaming
Go, go, go you're dreaming all away
One love, one life, and that's enough to get you through the night
Tomorrow's gonna be a brighter day
Hey, hey, hey!

They come alive when I work the nights
I guess I should've seen the warning signs

    Tom is trying to chat up a girl, and Danny is paying the price. That’s what the song makes me think. The way Danny sings the lose it part just makes me think dirty things and puts a smile on my face actually ….

    so this song is the theme song for the movie "night at the museum", which is about dinosaurs coming to life during the closing hours.

    at first, before knowing it was for the film, i also thought that "i think i'm gonna lose it, lose it, lose it" was all about his virginity, as you would on a friday night. but as soon as i heard what the movie was about, it all seemed to fit into the storyline of the film.

    there are some parts that don't make sense to me, assuming the song was written directly for the movie. lines such as "we could be together" kind of weirded me out.

    I think this song is amazing and I like that it's different than all the other McFly songs. I think it is about street-fighting and it sort of reminds me of Beat It.

    I have time on my hands so;

    Danny has stated in a few interviews that he wrote this song out of frustration when a group of "chavs" were continuously verbally abusing him, his girlfriend and his family on a friday night out, 'I think I'm gonna lose it, lose it, lose it' highlights his difficulty to restrain his temper at times like those. The line, 'they come alive when I work the nights' was inspired by his mother's friend who's shop was burgled after dark; gangs 'come alive at night time'.

    In reference to the song, I particularly remember him saying, "The world is so messed up. Street crime and sht like that is only one of the problems mate. We all know we need to sort our world out but most of us are too fcking lazy to do anything about anything" hence the line, 'change the world..'

    When the Night At The Museum directors approached McFly, the group decided the song fitted perfectly with the movie because the 'lose it' line can be interpeted in more than one way. For that particular movie, 'I think im gonna lose it' simply refers to losing your mind. They made a few alterations to the lyrics so it would coinside with the plot even more.

    Having said all that, I personally often prefer interpreting the eargasmic 'lose it! lose it!' and 'i'll give you something you can scream about' lines in the sexual sense. Haha.

    Hahaha JK1 I agree that is pretty awesome :D But yeah I thought it was about that all along, about being scared of the world and stuff at night. This song bursts into my head when i'm coming home late and I see all these gangs and scary people around. Is it weird that McFly make me less scared? Like when i'm in a particularly nervous or frightening situation and I think about one of one of their songs that relates to that situation it sort of takes the fear away and calms me down. Lol I dunno, maybe thats a bit strange. But yeah it makes me love them even more :)

Step
Ministry
Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
