Light up the night
You don’t have to wait until dawn
See the bright neon glow
Of a carnival show
Flashing on and off and on
Light up the night
We’ll turn the moon and the stars
Into red roman candles or pink cotton candy
That shine right thru the dark
Night, night good night
Let the sun go to bed
No no not us
We’re gonna stay up instead
Bounce bounce up and down
Feel the world spinning around
(all night , all night)
Dance dance to the beat
Of my lucky drum machine
Clang clang back and forth
Moving like a tambourine
All the colors clash and collide
When we paint the town (Let’s all go paint the town)
There’s so much left to do when the sun goes down down
Light up the night
You don’t have to wait until dawn
See the bright neon glow
Of a carnival show
Flashing on and off and on
Light up the night
We’ll turn the moon and the stars
Into red roman candles or pink cotton candy
That shine right thru the dark
Glow sticks, lighting bugs
These are things at night we love
Strobe lights, lava lamps
Vacuum tubes, vintage amps
Off/On flick the switch
Let’s heat up those filaments
We can rock the party all night, all right?
I love it when the needle drops
It sounds just like a soda pop
When you shake it up real good and slowly twist the plastic top
Oooh watch that record spin at 33 RPMs
Playing all my favorite songs
They are like my best friends
(There’s so much left to do when the sun goes down down)
We’ve got time to play
(But it’s dark not day)
We can still have fun
(Even without the sun?)
Let’s spend the night in a house made from couch cushions
We are DJ’s dressed up in our pj’s
Running up the staircase
Surfing on a sine wave
Man, we’ve stayed up way late
Good times they fly, in the blink of an eye
I’m so awake and alive, let’s light up the night
Light up the night
You don’t have to wait until dawn
See the bright neon glow
Of a carnival show
Flashing on and off and on
Light up the night
We’ll turn the moon and the stars
Into red roman candles or pink cotton candy
That shine right thru the dark
