…barely lit at all, so you blink and let your pupils find their balance. And there's your fiberglass baby, paint white and flaky in…
…white. You rotate the baby in your hands, agitated, and uncertain which way is up until it slips from your inquisitive grip…
…specifics of the story wrapped in something indigestible. A decaying clock that waits for you to reach next night's carbon dark…

At half past eleven
With everyone in bed
All sleeping peacefully
With no clue what lay ahead
One by one the socks arose…
Creeping through the tall grass
They came into a clearing
With a hundred blinking fireflies
All the shoeless socks
Underneath…
…the world
They sailed on a cruise
Forever to be free
Of toes and of shoes
And if by chance you see them
You might not believe your eyes
All…

Her arms are outstretched in a dancer's pose
Her gaze is sure and steady now
She has pointed her toes
The blades of her skates…
…gleam like platinum
This photo was snapped in '36
Her moment in the sun
Her medals…
…look, she can fly
Now it's nighttime in New York
I'm on the rink in Central Park
There are no Olympians
Skating in…

…want our love just to fade away
[Post-Hook]
In the nighttime sky, with the starlight
It's just me and you, you, you
I only want…
…you in my life
You don't have no clue, clue, clue
[Verse 1]
Ripped jeans, and some bad tattoos
That's my type, you gon' make me…
…fall in love
Check that, plus some attitude, nah
So quick to tell me when I'm fuckin' up
Let me take the first train to your place…

…it'll drive a man crazy
And there ain't no pleasure in this life for me but the nighttime and my baby
Well I'd love to ride all…
…home she's always got good lovin' saved up for me
Her warm sweet lips will make me forget all of my misery
With her arms wrapped…
…around me all through the long long night
I wake up in the morning feeling right mighty right
Start back to that old job again…

…knows this is a hard life sometimes it'll drive a man crazy
And there ain't no pleasure in this life for me but the nighttime…
…and my baby
Well I'd love to ride all over town in a brand new Cadillac
But on the money that I'm makin' it'll never…
…of my misery
With her arms wrapped around me all through the long long night
I wake up in the morning feeling right mighty right…

…this is a hard life sometimes it'll drive you crazy
Cause there ain't no pleasure in this life for me but the nighttime and my baby…
I'd love to ride all over town in a brand new Cadillac
But on the money that I'm makin' it'll never be like that
But money can't…
…buy everything like tender love at home I got a waitin'
And the only pleasure in this life for me is the nighttime and my baby
When…

…to high school wit' you
Wanna play you close and jump in the pool wit' you
I don't know what to do but this much is true
And in the hood, they all…
…all good and it seems so strange
Since you look up in the hood now things done changed
Kids…
…with designer clothes
It's day now but you know how nighttime goes
And how it's gon' play out I don't have a clue
All I know…

…you do the nestea plunge
I only came to have some fun but I get caught up in the rapture
I don't even write lyrics no more, I…
…motherfuckers is too slick for Michael
We be creepin' up on you like police on bikes
It's the middle of the hype night
All…
…a lot of money for this promise kit
We runnin' late for a show, we got this money to get
The nightlife'll have you caught up in all types…

Big guns, I'll make you do the Nestea plunge
I only came to have some fun but I get caught up in the rapture

[Tash]
Since it's all about the cash, we ?? on that smash
Hit up Four-Five and Carson, scoop…

The nightlife'll have you caught up in all types of sh*t

Like this, like that, like that like this

…b>Verse 1
Shake up your cat, your hat, the rat is protesting
Smile at your bark, unscarf, king buttfish molesting
Common suck fin…
…cautiously smoking
Hymn 1
Foreign manner silent ear-mite
Tied for second in the stand still
Choice wine, serve the royal guard
It's time…
…mandalay churchyard
Forceful crucifix of value, timeless as the scallions major
change
Take regard and drop the circuit, witless taking with jaundice
In the end we'll all shine through and disregard who wins...

…[Intro]
Make me feel like I'm that n*gga, yeah (I'm that n*gga)
Make me feel like I'm that n*gga, yeah
All these bills, I just…
…pus*y so good, might have me slip up, ayy
Ayy, make me feel like I'm that n*gga, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
I might hit…
…today
Yeah, ayy, ayy, ayy
I'ma put it on you cold, it's a night day in the ayy
But it's nighttime in this rose
Nighttime in my rose…

…gone pick it up
Facts, when I'm in my hood, sh*t I do what I wanna
250 im spinnin' the corner
You better get busy you running up…
…gone crush y'all
If it's f*ck me, you know its f*ck y'all
b*tch ass n*ggas, they don't want war
All these choppers in the crib look…
…this the end of the night
I swear to God I ain't go to sleep last night
Hey Clue, I swear to God you better stop doing your show at nighttime…

…gone pick it up
Facts, when I'm in my hood, shit I do what I wanna
250 im spinnin' the corner
You better get busy you running up…
…gone crush y'all
If it's fuck me, you know its fuck y'all
Bitch ass niggas, they don't want war
All these choppers in the crib look…
…this the end of the night
I swear to God I ain't go to sleep last night
Hey Clue, I swear to God you better stop doing your show at nighttime…
