Lyrics
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down, you head inside
'Cause the lights don't work
Yeah, nothing works, they say you don't mind
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
And the missionaries, they tell us we will be left behind
Been left behind a thousand times, a thousand times
If you want to be righteous
If you want to be righteous, get in line
'Cause here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night
Here comes the night time
Look out, here comes the night time!
They say heaven's a place
Yeah, heaven's a place, and they know where it is
But you know where it is?
It's behind the gate, they won't let you in
And when they hear the beat coming from the street
They lock the door
But if there's no music up in heaven, then what's it for?
When I hear the beat
My spirit's on me like a live-wire
A thousand horses running wild in a city on fire
But it starts in your feet, then it goes to your head
And, if you can't feel it, then the roots are dead
And if you're the judge, then what is our crime?
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time, yeah
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night!
Here comes the night!
Look out, here comes the night!
Here comes the night!
Here comes the night!
Here comes the night, the night, the night, the night time!
Now, the preachers they talk, up on the satellite
If you're looking for hell, just try looking inside
Here comes the night time, the night time
Here comes the night time, the night time
Here comes the night time, the night time
Here comes the night time, the night time
Here comes the night time, the night time
When you look in the sky, just try looking inside
God knows what you might find
When you look in the sky, just try looking inside
God knows what you might find
Here comes the night time
