"Places People" Lyrics

Everybody here knows you're crazy
Been bouncin' like a bird on a limb since the minute they let you in
You're not the stone, not the daisy
It's a metaphor you've heard before but the definition gets hazy

Everybody here livin' like no tomorrow
Too groovy like a drive-in movie when I let the music soothe me
The jubilation and the sorrow
It's an avenue you must pursue even if you have to beg and borrow

Places, people
Places, people
Gotta get this started
Do it right now, in a little bit
But not after you've departed
Places, people
Places, people
Gotta get this right
Do it right now, in a little bit
Haven't got all night
Night, all night, yeah

Everybody there thinks you're lazy
Got a quiz on the state of the biz at your parents' holiday party
I hope that bird is mighty tasty
Your Uncle Ricky put on the lampshade and your daddy
on the couch cold wasted
Don't ever let it get you down
You can make a getaway plan to get yourself downtown
And then with all your friends around
This is now the place to be and everybody's getting down

Places, people
Places, people
Gotta get this started
Do it right now, in a little bit
But not after you've departed
Places, people
Places, people
Gotta get this right
Do it right now, in a little bit
But I haven't got all night
Night, all night, yeah

Places, people
Places, people
Gotta get this started
Do it right now, in a little bit
But not after you've departed
Places, people
Places, people
Gotta get this right
Do it right now, in a little bit
But I haven't got all night
Night, all night, yeah

Places, people
Places, people
Gotta get this started
Do it right now, in a little bit
But not after you've departed
Places, people
Places, people
Gotta get this right
Do it right now, in a little bit
But I haven't got all night
Night, all night, yeah
