Title: Nightlife (feat. Lady Cobra)
Album: ¡Dos! (2012)

Lyrics:

Taking a ride to my old haunt
She's in my blood, I reside in my Nightlife
My favorite colour's candy apple, girl
And she resides in my mind and my Nightlife

What's that I hear, you wanna go for a ride?
Oh, don't be afraid boy, to come inside
I got the thing that you want, the fix that you need
Chase this with a little lust and greed

I'll be the devil on your shoulder saying "Hey boy, come over"
My black heart beats crimson and clovers
So operator, operator, patch my boy in
This is Nightlife and I'll get under your skin

Taking a ride to my old haunt
She's in my blood, I reside in my Nightlife
My favorite colour's candy apple, girl
And she resides in my mind and my Nightlife

What a thrill, heart beat fast
Sounds like love, but you know it won't last
Cheap champagne stain on an even cheaper suit
Hope there's more in your pants than a bus route

Build up the walls, light the sugar-coated walls
Girls on your bar stool from late last calls
This town is filled with snakes, mistakes and whisky shakes
It's too late I already cut the breaks

Well I am rolling, strolling into town (Come inside)
Is it me or am I going crazy? (It's just you)
This dirty city is my sugar town (Sugar town)
My little angel of death is my Nightlife

(Come inside)
(It's just you)
(Sugar Town)

Gonna make a move, before I get bored
If you wanna explore my vocal cord
Baby girl go, go dance on the cooch
Hand on my knee or hand on the hooch

Why don't you stick around for one more round?
This place is a circus, and I know you'll be my clown
'Cause I'm a ringleader, I run the show
And only when I tell you when it is time to go

Taking a ride to my old haunt
She's in my blood, I reside in my Nightlife
My favorite colour's candy apple, girl
And she resides in my mind and my Nightlife

(Hey boy) She is my Nightlife
(Hey boy) She is my Nightlife
(Hey boy) She is my Nightlife
(See you later) She is my Nightlife
