This became the
second song on my October 1985
cassette. It’s a straight-ahead pop song. Sorta preaching to myself here,
because I tend to be too much of a homebody.
It's Gonna Be a Good Night
© 1985 Brian
Hutzell
You look a little
unhappy with the state of affairs
You say your
family loves you, but they don't seem to care
Well, believe me
The worst you
could do would be to try to sleep it off
You'd wake up
tomorrow
Another
opportunity lost
Don't go to bed
feeling so uneasy
Don't let your
head touch the pillow
Don't go to sleep
with the day unfinished
When's the last
time that your momma kissed you goodnight?
It's gonna be
alright
Oh yeah, it's
gonna be a good night
Tonight is gonna
be a good night
You think you
don't wanna party
Think you'll just
get upset
But you don't
wanna be lonely
Try to hide in
your bed
That would be the
worst you could do
'Cause sleep is
not the cure
Your judge would
be the quiet, your executioner
Don't go to bed
feeling so uneasy
Don't let your
head touch the pillow
Don't go to sleep
with the day unfinished
When's the last
time that your momma kissed you goodnight?
It's gonna be
alright
Oh yeah, it's
gonna be a good night
Tonight is gonna
be a good night
What's this
addiction to pain
You're hanging on
a homemade cross again
Your greatest
enemy is your brain
Well, tonight's
not gonna be the same
You're going out
with us
We're gonna drink
and dance
Do everything you
claim to hate
We're gonna stay
up late
Don't go to bed
feeling so uneasy
Don't let your
head touch the pillow
Don't go to sleep
with the day unfinished
When's the last
time that your momma kissed you goodnight?
It's gonna be
alright
Oh yeah, it's
gonna be a good night
Tonight is gonna
be a good night
