Make It to Midnight Songtext
von Houndmouth

High beams bend at night
The evergreens out of sight
The parking lot stars, chrome as they are
They fade to black and white
Be careful out in the shadows
′Cause the phantom moves in the night

And now we got it right
'Cause you and me, babe
We′re under red, red skies
We got to make it to midnight
Some get high, some grow tired
And some go "Ooh lie lie"


You left your old family ties
Kept your mother's menthol eyes
The summer dove was underloved
And she's naked by design
Graffiti on the overpass
Mowing down the power lines

And now we got it right
′Cause you and me, babe
We′re under red, red skies
We got to make it to midnight
Some get high, some grow tired
And some go "Ooh lie lie"

Now we got it right
'Cause you and me, babe
We′re under red, red skies
We got to make it to midnight
Out there under a full moon light
And I'm a werewolf ′til dawn
Something about all the drugs I'm on
You gotta make it to midnight
Some get high, some grow tired
And some go "Ooh lie lie"
