lyrics

I called off work today
It’s the best decision I ever made
I could have busted my ass
For a little cash
But instead I’m here and I’m havin’ a blast

So give me a hug
And it’s not because I’m drunk
It’s cuz I know how infrequently
Nights like these come along

When were all old
And wallowing in misery
So take some time
And store this moment in your memory

If the world should end tonight
I’d go out with a grin
that’d be alright
At least I’d go in good company
But that probably won’t happen
But at least we can pretend
The sun will never come up
And this night will never end

Someday we’ll all be old
And won’t see each other for years
We might not even remember
Eachother’s names

But tonight we are together
And nothing could be better
So let’s dance so hard
we’ll never be the same













Some day we will die
But tonight we are alive
So clear your throat
And grab a friend

Cuz tonight we are here
So lets drink some fuckin’ beer
And pretend
That this night will never end

Yes tonight we are young
And I love each and every one
Of you who convinced me to call off work
And have some fun
