Lyrics
The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a scream for you and me It's a sleepy sort of night, the last thing that I want is sleep It's a peaceful sort of night, the last thing that I want is peace I throw caution to the wind and it comes flying back at me It's the calm before the storm and something's gonna clobber me Put your ear down to the ground, can't you hear those stomping feet And the swishing of those gowns, the laughing and the 4/4 beat It takes a special kind of thrill to stand out in this day and age Everybody looks so good and everyone is good in bed The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a dream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a scream for you and me I've got a Sam & Dave revue playing in my heart tonight I've got a pebble in my shoe, even that feels good tonight All those Big Mac wrappers dancing down the street dance better than I do But you can't fight City Hall no matter what you say or do The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a dream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a scream for you and me It's a sleepy sort of night It's a peaceful sort of night The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a dream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a scream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a dream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a scream for you and me It's your patriotic duty to look as good as you can It's your patriotic duty to dance with me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a dream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a scream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a dream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a scream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a dream for you and me The armies of the night are coming, they're coming Life will be a scream for you and me
