The Bastard of Midnight Lyrics

Hey what's your number Chicago
What time is it in Japan
I've got something to offer
It's never been in demand

Yeah I've got something to say to you
That I know you'd rather ignore
I am the bastard of midnight
I might just sleep outside this door

Trouble keeps the bar lights on
For the heartache
Sunset Boulevard to take me home
But I just wanna scream

I, I miss you
I, I miss you
I, I miss you tonight

Hey what's your problem St. Peter
I've got my oceans in green
Am I the groom of disaster
I've come here to entertain

But I've got nothing to sing to you
That you haven't heard before
So I will sing you a million
While you walk out that door

Trouble keeps the bar lights on
For the heartache
She says Sunset Boulevard will take me home
But I just wanna scream

I, I miss you
I, I miss you
I, I miss you tonight

Tell me once, tell me twice just what I wanna hear
Come around, hold me close we're getting out of here
Tell me once, tell me twice, tell me again

I, I miss you
I, I miss you
I, I miss you tonight

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

No matter how many times I listen to this song, it never gets old. I think it's just about being persistent in your feelings for someone, despite the distance between you
