Lyrics
Something About This Night
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can see them
See them forming perfect lines
Ladies dressed up to the nines
Gentlemen and fill-in sides
I can hear them
Everyone's a critic here
Whispering loud and clear
"Is this the failure of the year?"
Oh, in any other career you would know
Know where you're going to
In any other career they would show you respect
Oh, but here they're never going to
There's something about this night
That you just can't forget
Except they smoke cigarettes
Win or lose, you wanna bet
'Cause there's something about this night
All actors call to one
Line prepare for song
Is it too late to change everyone?
There is only one night to impress some reasonable expectations
Something about this night
Something about this night
With only one night to impress some reasonable expectations
Something about this night
Something about this night
I can see them
Reaching for their daggers now
Hoping I would lay face-down
Ready to paint me as a clown
I can feel them
Yawning, calling for the end
Oh, their sharpening and their pens
Using all my blood instead of ink
Oh, in any other career you would know
Know where you're going to
In any other career they would show you respect
Oh, but here they're never going to
Something about this night
That you just can't forget
Expect they smoke cigarettes
Win or lose, you want to bet
'Cause there is something about this night
All actors call to one
Line prepare for song
Is it too late to change everyone?
There is only one night to impress some reasonable expectations
Something about this night
Something about this night
With only night to impress some reasonable expectations
Something about this night
Something about this night
It's a fight, it's a shove, it's a labor of love, it's a journey to know what you've seen
It's over, it's time I taken my chances, does anyone know what I mean?
'Cause it is a time I should stay low. Is there ever I time I should say no?
Waiting for 6 and for paper to make up their mind
What is it about this night?
Yeah!
'Cause there's something about this night
That you just can't forget
Except they smoke cigarettes
Win or lose, you wanna bet
'Cause there's something about this night
All actors call to one
Line prepare for song
Is it too late to change everyone?
There is only one night to impress some reasonable expectations
Something about this night
Something about this night
With only one night to impress some reasonable expectations
Something about this night
Something about this night
Something about this night
There is something about this night!
