Lyrics

Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and I
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their
Home, and I'm welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought oh god, my chance has come at last
(but then a strange fear gripped me and i
Just couldn't ask)

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one, da ...
Oh, I haven't got one

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
...

"Take me out tonight"

Sounds like a date and the guy just wants to get a room.

Fantastic. It's good.......

It took me awhile to get it, I think.

I read the lyrics and then listened to the song.

I don't remember the Smiths, I'm with ArtMan on this one.

Am I the only one who's never heard of The Smiths before today? (Wouldn't that be soooo embarrassing?) yikes
Thank you for sharing- it's always good to listen to good music

Also loved The Smiths when I was in my twenties, and this song is one of their finest. Still follow Morrissey to this day. Good stuff! smile
