This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Tonight there's gonna be trouble all around
From the midtown lights to the lifeless towns
Yeah, tonight we're gonna rock, we're gonna roll
I don't wanna hear it, you're coming with me
You got nothing to do and nowhere you gotta be
Cause tonight nothing gets in our way
Cause i don't wanna hear about bills to pay
No i don't wanna hear about that
Cause when the radio is on and the music is playing
[Chorus:]
I just wanna keep dancin
Keep dancin
It's getting kinda late doesnt work for me
Cause tonight is gonna burn for the world to see
Yeah, tonight we're gonna rock, we're gonna roll
I'm tired of the backstab, I'm tired of the scene
If there's something to be said then you say it to me
Cause tonight nothing gets in my way
Now the devil's gonna end up looking like a saint
Cause stop ain't the word to be said
Cause when the radio is on and the music's playing
[Chorus]
No i dont wanna hear about work today
No i dont wanna hear about that
Cause when the DJs on and the music's pumping
[Chorus]
From the midtown lights to the lifeless towns
Yeah, tonight we're gonna rock, we're gonna roll
I don't wanna hear it, you're coming with me
You got nothing to do and nowhere you gotta be
Cause tonight nothing gets in our way
Cause i don't wanna hear about bills to pay
No i don't wanna hear about that
Cause when the radio is on and the music is playing
[Chorus:]
I just wanna keep dancin
Keep dancin
It's getting kinda late doesnt work for me
Cause tonight is gonna burn for the world to see
Yeah, tonight we're gonna rock, we're gonna roll
I'm tired of the backstab, I'm tired of the scene
If there's something to be said then you say it to me
Cause tonight nothing gets in my way
Now the devil's gonna end up looking like a saint
Cause stop ain't the word to be said
Cause when the radio is on and the music's playing
[Chorus]
No i dont wanna hear about work today
No i dont wanna hear about that
Cause when the DJs on and the music's pumping
[Chorus]
