Capo on 1 All the girls are drunk Maybe so am I Here beneath the old express way I watch 'em walk on by All the harbour's humming Gonna light the crackers soon I just wanna kiss you Beneath the New Year moon All the junky kids are tired Every single Taxi's hired Say I'm moving slow, that you wanna go Bm- But I don't wanna leave - There's no need to feel so bad Growing up can make you sad You won't be ignored All aboard! Tonight is New Year's Eve! Mum and dad are in the back yard With Gladys Knight and her Pips My little brother's in his bedroom With nicotine on his fingertips MY BIG BROTHER'S dancin'! Scarin' girls and flyin' Surfies Said I'd meet him by the Danica Bath stand Next to Colin Murphy's All the junky kids are tired Every single Taxi's hired Say I'm moving slow, that you wanna go Bm- But I don't wanna leave - There's no need to feel so bad Growing up can make you sad You won't be ignored All aboard! Tonight is New Year's Eve! I can hear those Westies blow their horns Desert dust dragging off the dunes A- Downtown's got it's own sound Whistlin' through these rooms And the streets are full of action The burning sands are hangin' high I just gotta get some traction Let the light shoot through my eyes All the punks are lightin' fires Drinkin' long necks in the park Some girl is swimmin' in the fountain Singing Buzzcocks in the dark Your sister always says she's lonely I stole a New Year's kiss from her As the last train left the station Every red light was a blur All the junky kids are tired Every single Taxi's hired Say I'm moving slow, that you wanna go Bm- But I don't wanna leave - There's no need to feel so bad Growing up can make you sad You won't be ignored All aboard! Tonight is New Year's Eve! Now all the junky kids are high The train driver's gettin' tired Moon is hangin' low, rays are rocking slow Bm- Shut your eyes and breathe - I don't know why you're feeling sad It's the best time that I ever had Oh, let me hold you tight Let me hold you tight Tonight is New Year's Eve All right, All right, All right! Na na na na Na na Na! Na na na na Na na Na! Just come on! Just come on! Na na na na na, Na na na na na-a Na na na na naaaa! Who's gonna miss us? Na na na na Na na Na! Na na na na NA na NAA-aa-a-a-a Who's gonna miss us!? Na na na na na, Na-na Na Na-na na Na-a Na! Enjoy!
