Lyrics
Night people hanging out, looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen
Night people hanging out, looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen
While the day world is sleeping
Night people are creeping, hanging out, looking at each other
When the day world stops moving
Night people start grooving, hanging out, looking at each other
When the day bees stop buzzing
Night people start coming, hanging out
Waiting for something to happen
Night people hanging out, looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen
You dont get one thing without the other, we got to keep the world alive
If everybody went to sleep at the same time, howd we keep the world alive?
In a word, we got the night people
Night people hanging out, looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen
Got to see who is with you
Who is with me, who is with who
Were hanging out looking at each other
Got to see whatcha wearing, whatcha got
Whatcha sharing, hanging out
Waiting for something to happen
As the day world goes by
Night people doing fine, hanging out, looking at each other
When the day world starts humping
Night people start pumping, hanging out
Waiting for something to happen
Night people hanging out, looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen
Night people hanging out, looking at each other
Waiting for something to happen
Night people grooving, hanging out
Night people grooving, night people grooving
Night people grooving, night people grooving
Night people grooving
