tonite - electric lady sessions

Yeah, everybody's singing the same song
 It goes "tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight"
 I never realized that these artists thought so much about dying
 But truth be told we all have the same end
 Could make you cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
 But I'm telling you
 This is the best news you're getting all week
 Oh, sure it's ruling the airwaves
 Or what remains of the airwaves
 And we're frankly thankful for this market psychology you're hipping us to
 Yeah, all the hits are saying the same thing
 There's only tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
 And life is finite
 But shit, it feels like forever
 It feels like forever
 ♪
 Is everybody feeling the same stuff?
 We're all wild
 Except for you
 And you know who you are
 This is a love song
 And you're getting older
 I promise you this, you're getting older
 And there's improvements unless
 You're such a winner
 That the future's a nightmare
 And there's nothing I can do
 There's nothing anyone can do about this
 And oh, oh, oh, I'm offering you this chance to get even
 And oh, oh, oh, you know very well the dialectics of negation
 Sure enemies haunt you with spit and derision
 But the friends are the ones who can put you in an exile
 But that's not right
 ♪
 And you're too sharp to be used
 Or you're too shocked from being used
 By these bullying children of the fabulous
 Raffling off limited edition shoes
 And what's it you do again?
 Oh, I'm a reminder
 The hobbled veteran of the disk shop inquisition
 Sent to parry, parry the cocksure of mem-stick filth
 With my own late era middle-aged ramblings
 Every lover favors the same things
 It's all "touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me tonight"
 We maybe realize what it is we need before we die
 And luck is always better than skill at things
 We're flying blind
 Oh, good gracious
 Sorta sound like my mom
 But out of the little rooms and onto the streets
 You've lost your internet and we've lost our memories
 We had a paper trail that led to our secrets
 Now embarrassing pictures have now all been deleted
 By versions of selves that we thought were the best ones
 'Til versions of versions of others repeating
 Come laughing at everything you thought was important
 While still making mistakes that you thought you had learned from
 And terrible people know better than you
 The cost in the long run, but they can't play the short game
 And terrible people know better than you
 The use and abuse of the wants of dear listener
 Still you will be badgered and taunted and told that
 You're missing some party that you'll never get over
 You hate the idea that you're wasting your youth
 That you stood on the background, oh, until you got older
 But that's all lies
 That's all lies
 That's all lies
 That's all lies
