lyrics

The sun is setting
the clothes go on
dancing in my room to my favourite song
the shoes come out
I finish my beer
I open my wallet
and its what i feared
there's a single note
all scrunched up
pushed to the side like a little pup
I've just gotta find a way to get more shots
and by tomorrow i will have forgot

get my gay on tonight
get my gay on tonight
get my gay on tonight
get my gay on tonight

I've got no dignity tonight
I've got a tenner to last the night
Gotta shake a move to get me drinks
this guy dancing with me stinks
dunno how I'm gonna get home
got no money to use a phone
get me out my drunken misery

the bass is kicking
and the drums are hot
gotta jump up high
to catch the drop
and do the moves
to the wicked grooves
go into the robot
and never stop
there's glass on the floor
so I'm sliding around
dropping so low
I might hit the ground
got my dancing shoes on
and my drink in my hand
dropping so low like a techno fan

get my gay on tonight
get my gay on tonight
get my gay on tonight
get my gay on tonight

I've got no dignity tonight
I've got a tenner to last the night
Gotta shake a move to get me drinks
this guy dancing with me stinks
dunno how I'm gonna get home
got no money to use a phone
get me out my drunken misery
kissed a guy to drive me home for free
lost a shoe whilst trying to stand
and someone tried to hold my hand
I've got no dignity tonight
I've got a tenner to last the night
Gotta shake a move to get me drinks
this guy dancing with me stinks
dunno how I'm gonna get home

my face is melting
from the lights above
you're coming to close
it's what i was afraid of
i move away
you pull me in
I try and distract
by introducing my friend
too much drinking
and all that noise
isn't too good
for us country boys
I've dug a hole
I'm in the s**t
I wish I could just run and quit
but you grab my waist
with your big hands
I'm pulling away
you've foiled my plans
so this is it
I'm going in
I'm never doing this again
here comes your
sweaty face
your greasy lips
with kebab on your face
i wish i'd thought twice before this night
cause I'm so weedy
I can't even fight!

I've got no dignity tonight
I've got a tenner to last the night
Gotta shake a move to get me drinks
this guy dancing with me stinks
dunno how I'm gonna get home
got no money to use a phone
get me out my drunken misery
kissed a guy to drive me home for free
lost a shoe whilst trying to stand
and someone tried to hold my hand
I've got no dignity tonight
I've got a tenner to last the night
Gotta shake a move to get me drinks
this guy dancing with me stinks
dunno how I'm gonna get home

Woohoo Woohoo Gotta get my gay on
Woohoo Woohoo Gotta get my gay on
Woohoo Woohoo Gotta get my gay on
Woohoo Woohoo Gotta get my gay on
