NIGHTCLUB HEAVEN
(I WANT TO GO OUT TONIGHT)

WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter


         I.  it's getting dark behind the neon light
             like a velvet painting of a satellite.
             put down the magazine, it'll be there later.
             there's more to life than a full refrigerator.

    CHORUS:  I want to go out tonight.
             I want to go out tonight.
             I want to go out,
             want to go out tonight.
             I want to go out tonight.
             I want to go out tonight.
             I want to go out,
             want to go out tonight.

        II.  as the walls begin to shrink
             and spiral like a roller rink,
             a record skips on the radio,
             the radio, the radio, the radio, the radio...

             /// REPEAT CHORUS ///

    BRIDGE:  Lucinda stands motionless
             with no less emotion
             than the Bolshoi ballet.
             her eyes will tell a story,
             her voice will be the cast.
             tomorrow she will go away.

    ENDING:  cold inertia molds my ways
             like mountain springs in ice cube trays.
             when my life becomes December,
             I need a summer to remember,
             need a summer to remember.
