The Darkness
Everybody Have A Good Time Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Anticipation, too much to pay
Maybe I’m crazy, but there’s something in the air
There’s something in the air, ah
Come on people tell me how you feel
You want a good time, well you got yourself a deal
Oh yeah, you got yourself a deal

It’'s time to make, a brand new start
Take off your thinking, gotta listen to your heart

Everybody have a good time
Everybody have a crush, alright
Everybody have a good time
For tonight may be our last, alright

Good thing you’re cool, well I’m mister sure
Come on baby, leave your ego at the door
Cause you don’t need it anymore, whoa
Where is all this fighting getting us?
Where is the fire baby, what'’s the fuss?

Everybody have a good time
Everybody have a crush
Everybody have a good time
For tonight may be our last, alright
Yeah tonight may be our last

Where fools rush in, where eagles dare
You will find us, it’s already there
We live the same dream, every night
Having a good time till the morning light

Everybody have a good time
Everybody have a crush
Everybody have a good time




For tonight may be our last, alright
Yeah tonight may be our last.

Half joke, Half serious = 100% Pure Rock

@rushi5638

I'm like... not even a fan of The Darkness, but like... on an anthropological level, I feel like it's safe to say they were the last true rock band.

And they sent us off with a bang.

@ToddCampopiano

How is it possible that this video has only 184K views? Like most Darkness songs, this track kicks ass and the video is absolutely hilarious.

@m_san_d

I swear these dudes travelled on a delorean from the past to give us awsome tunes i the 00'

@medad5716

These guys are F'ing phenomenal live. Just saw them on their tour at Ace of Spades. And 1000 percent everyone in that place had a GREAT time. Justin is one hell of a front man, vocalist and guitarist. GO see them live at any opportunity you have.

@Yournewneighbors

@summermcpherson8209

It's my favorite off Hot Cakes! That, Every Inch of You, She's Just a Girl, Eddie, Forbidden Love, and Concrete are my favorites from the album.
