lyrics

[verse 1]
the band’s first gig
in the backyard of this girl from Los Al
it was gonna be big
we were told there would be tons of people
dancing around
but there wasn't even music when we showed up at eight
there was nobody there
so we made a few calls and told some friends to

[pre-chorus]
stay up late, hang out tonight
the stars outside are big and bright
as long as you're happy everything's gonna be alright

[verse 2]
we started to play
and suddenly the party was full
everyone was watching
and then they started to move
there was dancing, shaking, skanking, moshing ‘round in a pit
two hours later no one wanted to quit
but the cops showed up, we had to end our set
so we played a song to let everybody sing

[pre-chorus]
stay up late, hang out tonight
the stars outside are big and bright
as long as you're happy everything's gonna be alright

[chorus]
turn the radio up
it can't get loud enough
we’re feelin’ good, like we should
now we’re gonna shake things up
we're making lot's of noise
so all the girls and boys
can take a chance, do a dance
this is gonna be our night

[pre-chorus]
stay up late, hang out tonight
the stars outside are big and bright
as long as you're happy everything's gonna be alright
[chorus]
turn the radio up
it can't get loud enough
we’re feelin’ good, like we should
now we’re gonna shake things up
we're making lot's of noise
so all the girls and boys
can take a chance, do a dance
this is gonna be our night
