Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't you worry
'Cause I'm gonna have a real good time
We're gonna have a real good time
I'm gonna leave the world outside
Spend my money
We're gonna have a real good night
Let's go late night shopping
High street bopping
Let's go West End clubbing
Champagne popping
Let's keep it rocking
Party ain't stopping
Let's keep it, keep it rocking
Party ain't stopping
Nine to five (oh oh)
When it's over I can come alive (oh oh)
I'm in the mood to live a higher life (oh oh)
Now when the DJ drops the subli-mine
I'll be satisfied
I'm gonna leave the day behind
Don't you worry
'Cause I'm gonna have a real good time
We're gonna have a real good time
I'm gonna leave the world outside
Spend my money
'Cause it's gonna be a real good night
We're gonna have a real good night

There's something about early 2010's dance songs that actually gets me in the mood to go shopping, even if the lyrics are extremely blunt about it.
