The Streets › Lyrics › Blinded by the Lights

Thats the one, oi
How did he not find the baggy with his hand in my shoe?
Way too close for me, ah well at least they allowed me through
Should be a good night in here, Ramo in the main room
People keep pushing me though, no reception on the phone

And I'm thinkin'
(Lights are blinding my eyes)
They said they'd be here, they said, they said in the corner
And I'm thinkin'
(People pushing by then walkin' off into the night)

These are well speckly, bit green and blue
Threes is well cheap though, so I'll take three if I need to
Right I'm on the plan, I wish the bouncers would go away
Borrow water off this man, here goes nothing okay

And I'm thinkin'
(Lights are blinding my eyes)
Argh that's proper rank, that tastes like hairspray
And I'm thinkin'
(People pushing by then walkin' off into the night)

I hate coming to the entrance just to get bars on my phone
You have no new messages, so why haven't they phoned?
Menu, write message, so where are you and Simone?
Send message, Dan's number, where've they gone?

And I'm thinkin'
(Lights are blinding my eyes)
Why's the message pending? Where the f*** are you?
And I'm thinkin'
(People pushing by then walkin' off into the night)

Hmm, brandy or beer? Water's a good idea
Wish that bar lady'd appear, and come serve over here
Where the f*** could they be? Still not over in the corner
This nights a tragedy, I keep thinking I saw her

And I'm thinkin'
(Lights are blinding my eyes)
No thats not them, thats not them either
And I'm thinkin'
(People pushing by then walkin' off into the night)

I'm still not feeling anything, this has got to be a dud
It's been ages since I necked it and smoked six tabs to the nub
Belly's not even tingling, I just feel a bit pissed
And no one looks like minglin', I cant see her or him

And I'm thinkin'
(Lights are blinding my eyes)
I'm gonna do another I think, yeah, one more, these are s***
And I'm thinkin'
(People pushing by then walkin' off into the night)

These toilets are a piss take, queue's bigger than the door
Gotta get rid of this pill taste, what are they chattin' so much for?
Glad I'm not a girl in this place, they'll be here till dawn
Sure my belly's tingling a bit, somethings happening I'm sure

And I'm thinkin'
(Lights are blinding my eyes)
Maybe I shouldn't have done the second one, I feel all fidgety and warm
(People pushing by then walkin' off into the night)

Whoa, everything in the room is spinning, I think I'm gonna to fall down
My heart's beating too quick, I'm f****** tripping out
I wonder whether they got in, turned away no doubt
Who cares, this is a tune coming in, that one where he's like

I'm thinkin'
(Lights are blinding my eyes)
My eyes are rolling back, I'm rubbing my thighs with my hand
And I'm thinkin'
(People pushing by then walkin' off into the night)

Yeah yeah they cheer, can they see my hand in the air?
I need to wave 'em over here, I swear Simone's kissing Dan
My head is twisted severe, body's rushing everywhere
They could have texted me when they were near
But I'm f***** and I don't care

(Lights are blinding my eyes)
What was I thinkin' about? Ah who cares, I'm mashed
(People pushing by then walkin' off into the night)
Totally f*****, can't hardly f*****' stand
This is f*****' amazing, ahh
