Night Time
Britt Black Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You always burn the town at night
You always run around
Blame it on the night time, for love
You've seen that cloak of darkness tonight
Put on that skimpy dress
Blame it on the night time, for love

Nobody ever knows your name
It's just the part
On the night time
Yeah, blame it on the night time

It's time to lose control tonight
No one will ever know
Blame it on the night time, for love
This is your chance to break out now
More than one chance to make out
Blame it on the night time, for love

She loves to dance, she loves to sing
She needs to blame it on the night
She loves to dance, she loves to move
She needs to blame it on the night
She loves to dance, she loves romance
She need to blame it on the night




She loves to love, she lost control
She needs to blame it on the night

Overall Meaning

The first stanza describes how she burns the town down and runs around, blaming her behavior on the night time, which becomes a recurring theme in the song.

The chorus emphasizes the idea of attributing her actions to the night time, even going as far as saying "nobody ever knows your name" - highlighting the anonymity that comes with the darkness. The third stanza encourages the woman and the listener to "lose control" and take the chance to "break out now", once again using the excuse of the night time to do whatever they want without consequences. The repetition of "blame it on the night time" reaffirms that the night time is the justification for their actions.
