Bright Lights Bigger City
CeeLo Green Lyrics

I been livin for the weekend
I have been only looking forward to the weekends.

But no not anymore
However, that is not the case anymore.

'Cause here comes that familiar feelin'
Because I am experiencing that familiar feeling of excitement.

That Friday's famous for
The feeling associated with Fridays is well-known.

Yeah I'm lookin' for some action
I am seeking something exciting to do.

And it's out there somewhere
There is something interesting to do that exists.

You can feel the electricity
There is an electric energy in the air.

All in the evening air
This energy is present in the evening.

And it may just be more of the same
It is possible that the activity will be the same as usual.

But sometimes you wanna go where everyone knows your name
However, sometimes it is more fulfilling to go somewhere where people know and recognize you.

So I guess I'll have to wait and see
Therefore, I suppose I will have to wait and find out what happens.

But I'm just gonna let something brand new happen to me
But I am open to the idea of experiencing something entirely new.

And it's alright
Everything is okay.

It's alright
Everything is okay.

It's alright
Everything is okay.

Bright lights and the big city
The big city with its bright lights.

It belongs to us tonight
We have ownership of the city tonight.

Now Friday's cool
Fridays are enjoyable.

But there's somethin' about Saturday night
However, something special happens on Saturday nights.

You can't say what you won't do
You cannot predict what you will not do.

'Cause you know that you just might
Because sometimes you end up doing things you did not expect.

I'm alive this evening
I feel particularly alive tonight.

It was love at first sight
I immediately fell in love with the evening.

This Saturday
This specific Saturday.

And every Saturday for the rest of my life
And every Saturday for the rest of my life, I will feel this way.

And everyone's standin' in line
The line to experience this excitement is long and full of people.

Yeah lookin' good and lookin' for a real good time
People look great and they are all seeking a great time.

So I'll never have to wonder if
Therefore, I will never have to doubt whether I will have someone to share these moments with.

I'll have someone to share all of this with
I will always have someone to share these exciting experiences with.

Yes I need it
I require it.

Everybody does
Everyone has a need for it.

Cocktails and conversation
Drinks and good conversation.

Music and making love
Music and having sexual intercourse.

Bright lights, bright lights, bright lights
The bright lights of the city, repeated in emphasis.

And the big city
The large urban center.

It belongs to us tonight
We have ownership of the city tonight.
