Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What can I do
I can’t take up and down like this no more, babe
I need to find out where I am before I reach the stars
Yeah, before I step on Mars
[Verse 2]
I been spinning and I'm blue
Thinking 'bout my life and how to change it
Crazy thoughts I like to leave behind
Oh yes, it's gonna blow my mind
[Verse 3]
Deadly days and killer nights
It's hard to keep things tight
I don't have a love affair on all these lonely flights
Promises of liquid gold mend my heart but not my soul, yeah
[Verse 4]
You know it won't be long so shake it on
You know it won't be long so shake it on
You know it won't be long so shake it on
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love
And now I'm moving on
(Gonna be a freak tonight)
[Verse 5]
It's a solid state affair
I can feel it everywhere
Music still infecting me
Music still protecting me, yeah
[Verse 6]
Funky super starlight freaks, a source of after life
If we're gonna do this thing, let's do it and do it right
I know we can reach the stars
I know we can reach the high chair
Oh yeah, I'm gonna shake it on
[Verse 7]
You know it won't be long so shake it on
You know it won't be long so shake it on (Gonna be a freak tonight)
You know it won't be long so shake it on
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love
And now I'm moving on
[Verse 8]
(Gonna be a freak tonight)
(Gonna be a freak tonight)
[Verse 9]
What can I do?
I can't take up and down like this no more, babe (Gonna be a freak tonight)
What can I do?
[Verse 10]
People scream but I can't hear, I don't care too much
Crocodile and toxic tears, can't kick this sense of touch
Life has lost it's eloquence, but I can't sit it on the fence
Feel like being treacherous with the music still infecting us
[Verse 11]
(Gonna be a freak tonight)
(Gonna be a freak tonight)
[Verse 12]
You know it won't be long so shake it on (Gonna be a freak tonight)
You know it won't be long so shake it on (Gonna be a freak tonight)
(Gonna be a freak tonight)
(Gonna be a freak tonight)
