Album: Dopamine (2015)

Get Me Out Of Here

I just kicked out the floor lights, but the spotlight operator's
Shining shame on all my chosen words
And my hip parading I can see him start to sneer

Get me out of here
Get me out of here

And what started out in earnest now seems more like a jest
And who was your concrete hero, is now an uninvited guest
And the floor seats are sensing fear

Get me out of here
Get me out of here

Could be the greatest rock star ever
If you get off on loneliness
'Cause it's a wilderness
It's like a wilderness

And the band said, come to,
We're waiting up for you,
Yeah they're waiting up for you,
And you're backstage in the dark. Yeah.
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
Well I think I lost my spark.

My damsel with the dowry,
Walked into the hotel Bowery.
Some Junior banker's lusty conquest.
And I'm too shocked to shed a tear.

Get me out of here.
Get me out of here.
Could be the greatest rock star ever
Who needs a new address.

Come to,
We're waiting all for you,
Yeah they're waiting all for you,
Is everything alright?
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
You're a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.

Tour bus takes me home cross the golden gate bridge,
To leftover peas and a note on the fridge.
She took the keys and tony supremes
But the message is clear,
Get me outta here.

Crashing in the backstage
The show's a smashing great success, thank you darling.
The band's a gateway drug and I'm a tragic mess.
But one more time the lights—they fade in
This song's for you, my bashful maiden,
Who's face looked like my wife
Is now as cold and calculated
As that surgeon's knife

Somebody's surgeon knife
Somebody's surgeon knife

The band said come to,
We're waiting all for you,
Yeah they're waiting all for you,
Is everything alright?
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
You're a creature of—
The greatest rock star ever.
If you get off on loneliness

'Cause it's hard to get it right
When you're a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.
