Blackout!

there's an energy to this in a week of nothin' to do
as the lights go out all over my city
electricity sparks between me and you

it got me writing words backwards
something not done before
as the life chokes out all over my city
I know she will roll with me
I say we hit the floor

We go
Blackout!
Blackout!
We could see with the lights out
Blackout!
Blackout!
Some lesson only learn in the dark

Y2K summer world party
Round at the Ruby is BANGin'
And as the absinthe makes my heart grow fonder
The soul music medicine got my friends dancing

Down on the dancefloor we're reining
While I'm relating to no one
Nights out nowadays seem more fun
Fondly remembering on Monday, Terrible Tuesdays into nights knocked out so long

We go
Blackout!
Blackout!
We could see with the lights out
Blackout!
Blackout!
Some lesson only learn in the dark

One two three squeeze energize me
Laughter come and erupt from a smile
One and one make three! girl you gonna hypnotize me
And I think I just might stay for a while

We Californians plugging in
We been sparking and shocking eachother since we met
Here we go I'm gonna bet
Blackout!
