Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just wanna have fun
Put it all together
If I had you from the start
We can go kung fu fighting for just this time
We can go supersonic for just this night
Put on your best black suit tonight
Put on your boots tonight. I hope you know it gets much better .
Get on the gum stained bus tonight
You're smart enough to know that I am not here to save your life , get on the bus tonight
I hope you know that I am .. .
Standing by the turn just wanna have fun
Stomping through the street she's breaking your heart
Grooving to the beat she's a loaded gun
Standing by the turn just wanna have fun
Don't care about opinion just wanna have fun
Give it up surrender let's do cheap tricks on your car
Take a moment to think this through
Here for now but I won't play the fool
Get on the gun stained bus tonight
Everything around you just can't help but feeling old , put on the boots tonight I hope you know it gets much better
Fuck all the tainted boys tonight
Your smart enough to know that I am not here to save your life , get on the bus tonight
I hope you know that I am...

The chorus urges them to be bold and take risks, whether that's going kung-fu fighting or going supersonic. The lines "Put on your best black suit tonight / You and I can start standing up for the other side" suggest that the singer and their partner may have a bit of a rebellious streak.
