Lyrics Massive Nights - The Hold Steady

Massive Nights

The guys were feeling good about their liquor run
The girls were kinda flirting with the setting sun
We all kinda fumbled through the Jitterbug
We were all powered up on some new upper drug
Everyone was funny and everyone was pretty
And everyone was coming towards the center of the city
The dance floor was crowded, the bathrooms were worse
We kissed in your car and we drank from your purse
I had my mouth on her nose
When the chaperon said that we were dancing too close
We had some massive nights, every song was right
All that wine was tight
And your friends were pretty cool
And my friends were acting cool
And there weren’t any fights
There’s usually one or two
Some guys they get a little bit uptight
Some girls they got something to prove
We had some massive highs
We had some crushing lows
We had some lusty little crushes
We had those all ages hardcore matinee shows
I was down on my knees
When the chaperon said that it was time for me to leave
We had some massive nights and every song was right
All that wine was tight
Your friends were pretty cool
And my friends were acting cool
And there weren’t any fights
There’s usually one or two
Some guys they get a little bit uptight
Some girls they got something to prove
We had some massive nights
We had some massive nights
We had some massive nights
We had some massive nights
We had some massive nights and every song was right
All that wine was tight
Your friends were pretty cool
And my friends were acting cool
She had the gun in her mouth
And she was shooting up at her dreams
When the chaperon said that we’d been crowned
The king and the queen
