(Lyrics under the cut)
[Verse 1] Take me out tonight Where there's music and there's people And they're young and alive Driving in your car I never, never want to go home Because I haven't got one anymore Take me out tonight Because I want to see people And I want to see lights Driving in your car, oh, please don't drop me home Because it's not my home, it's their home And I'm welcome no more
[Chorus] And if a double-decker bus crashes into us To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten-tonne truck kills the both of us To die by your side, well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine
[Verse 2] Take me out tonight Take me anywhere, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care And in the darkened underpass I thought "Oh God, my chance has come at last" But then a strange fear gripped me and I just couldn't ask Take me out tonight Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care Driving in your car I never, never want to go home Because I haven't got one, la-di-dum, oh, I haven't got one Oh, oh
[Chorus] And if a double-decker bus crashes into us To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten-tonne truck kills the both of us To die by your side, well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine
[Outro] Oh, there is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out
