Night Time
Expression & G.B.H Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been doing this for a while now
Hooking up just one-night stands
I feel like it's overrated though
Kinda wanna start dating again
Cuz last night was the last time
I'll be going for someone like you
Yeah last night was the last time
I'll hook up with a worthless fool
Last night was the last time
I'll be going for someone like you
Yeah last night was the last time
I let a one-night stand in my room
I let a one-night stand in my room
It was gonna be someone just like you
But I called it off said I had schoolwork to do
Truth was I just wasn't in the mood
Hooking up's just really not cool
Compared to dating on a girl 6'2"
Lefty with glutes
Cuz last night was the last time
I'll be going for someone like you
Yeah last night was the last time
I'll hook up with a worthless fool
Last night was the last time
I'll be going for someone like you
Yeah last night was the last time
I let a one-night stand in my room
Oooo once upon a time I was just a twelfth grader
I had this friend wanted to make himself greater
Figured out there was this girl just barely out of reach
If he could pull it off it'd be the catch of the century
Oooo once upon a time I was just a twelfth grader
I had this friend wanted to make himself greater
Figured out there was this girl just barely out of reach
If he could pull it off it'd be the catch of the century
Cuz last night was the last time
I'll be going for someone like you
Yeah last night was the last time
I'll hook up with a worthless fool
Last night was the last time
I'll be going for someone like you




Yeah last night was the last time
I let a one-night stand in my room
