Night Life
The Arka Teks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ladies and gentlemen, your attention please
We are here to mobilize an infantry
Our army is approaching but not looking to fight
No we are only trying to light up your night life

So if your pushin' paper nine to five
Monday, Friday on the grind
And your about to loose your mind
Get in line
'Cause we're about to storm the gates
Get it poppin' in the place
Make 'em hear us when we say, when we say

We came to party, hey
We came to party, ho
We came to party, hey
And if you ain't down with that then let me show you the door

We came to party, hey
We came to party, ho
We came to party, hey
So come on let's go

We're comin' through your town
We're gonna shut it down
Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
It's gonna get loud tonight

(HEY) It's gonna get loud tonight
(HO) Shut down this town tonight
(HEY) It's gonna get loud tonight
(HO) Shut down this town tonight

Now we're through the door the only thing I wanna see
Is a sea of party people rockin' with me
If you need to loosen up go grab yourself a drink
'Cause this is not the time or place you wanna think about

Pushin paper nine to five
Monday, Friday on the grind
Boss is bitchin' all the time
Let it go

'Cause the speakers bleedi'n bangin' beats
That you can hear from down the street
If you need to follow me
Here we go

We came to party, hey
We came to party, ho
We came to party, hey
And if you ain't down with that then let me show you the door

We came to party, hey
We came to party, ho
We came to party, hey
So come on let's go

We're comin through your town
We're gonna shut it down
Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
It's gonna get loud tonight

(HEY) It's gonna get loud tonight
(HO) Shut down this town tonight
(HEY) Its gonna get loud tonight
(HO) Shut down this town tonight

We came to party, hey
We came to party, ho
We came to party, hey
So come on let's go

We're comin through your town
We're gonna shut it down
Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
It's gonna get loud tonight

(HEY) It's gonna get loud tonight
(HO) Shut down this town tonight




(HEY) It's gonna get loud tonight
(HO) Shut down this town tonight
