That's how it starts
We go back to your house
You check the charts
And start to figure it out
And if it's crowded, then all the better
because we know we're gonna be up late
But if you're worried about the weather
then you picked the wrong place to stay
You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan
and the next five years trying to be with your friends again
You're talking 45 turns just as fast as you can
yeah, I know it gets tired, but where are your friends tonight
Where are your friends tonight
And so it starts
You switch the engine on
We set controls for the heart of the sun
one of the ways we show our age
And if the sun comes up, if the sun comes up
and if the sun comes up
and I still don't wanna stagger home
Then it's the memory of our betters
that's keeping us on our feet
You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan
and the next five years trying to be with your friends again
You're talking 45 turns just as fast as you can
yeah, I know it gets tired, but where are your friends tonight
Where are your friends tonight
where are your friends tonight
where are your friends tonight
where are your friends tonight
where are your friends tonight
where are your friends tonight
where are your friends tonight
It comes apart
the way it does in bad films
Except in parts
when the moral kicks in
Though when we're running out of the drugs
and the conversation's winding away
I wouldn't trade one stupid decision
for another five years of life
You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan
and the next five years trying to be with your friends again
You're talking 45 turns just as fast as you can
yeah, I know it gets tired, but where are your friends tonight
Where are your friends tonight
where are your friends tonight
where are your friends tonight
If I could be with my friends tonight
If I could be with my friends tonight
If I could be with my friends tonight
If I could be with my friends tonight
If I could be with my friends tonight
If I could be with my friends tonight
If I could be with my friends tonight
If I could be with my friends tonight
