When the Lights Are Out Lyrics
With the lights out
We'll be sitting pretty
Scream a pitiful scream
With the lights out
We'll be warm and willing
Better watch where I lean
When you gaze into a crystal ball
You'll see nothing's gonna change at all
You'll see nothing's gonna happen
Overnight so please
[Chorus:Repeat x2]
When the lights are out
When I hear you sigh
Let me feel you warm breath on my neck
It makes me hit the sky
Oh, what a whisper
You can bowl me over
Blow a beautiful blow
With an answer
You can turn me under
Wind up ready to go
When you gaze into a crystal ball
You'll see nothing's gonna change at all
You'll see nothing's gonna happen
Overnight so please
[Chorus:Repeat x2]
When you gaze into a crystal ball
You'll see nothing's gonna change at all
You'll see nothing's gonna happen
Overnight so please
[Chorus:Repeat x2]
When the lights are out [Repeat x4]
We'll be sitting pretty
Scream a pitiful scream
We'll be warm and willing
Better watch where I lean
You'll see nothing's gonna change at all
You'll see nothing's gonna happen
Overnight so please
When the lights are out
When I hear you sigh
Let me feel you warm breath on my neck
It makes me hit the sky
Oh, what a whisper
You can bowl me over
Blow a beautiful blow
You can turn me under
Wind up ready to go
You'll see nothing's gonna change at all
You'll see nothing's gonna happen
Overnight so please
When you gaze into a crystal ball
You'll see nothing's gonna change at all
You'll see nothing's gonna happen
Overnight so please

I love it when favourite artists do surprise cover versions of other favourite artists, Slade being my favourite childhood 70's band and Cheap Trick being my all time favourite band. Cheap Trick acknowledge their Beatles and Slade influence, and covered this track on their 2009 release "Latest", have a listen its very good!
