Styx - World Tonite lyrics

Written by Glen Burtnik

Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik

A child is born in the world tonite, underneath the full moonlight

And on the nightway a fire starts, diesel engines & broken hearts

The girls wanna dance and the boys wanna fight

Gonna get rockin' in the world tonite

The black cat howls and the mad dog bites

Somthing gonna happen in the world tonite

Now up in heaven the starts align, stirring up the world tonite

In the jungle the power's strong, and tribes are restless all night long

And the girls wanna dance, the boys wanna fight

Gonna get rockin' in the world tonite

Tension's rising, you can cut it with a knoife

Sticky situation in the world tonite

The world tonite

Big moon staring at the world tonite

Young blood run free,

You can be anything you wanna be

Young blood run wild

You've got the will of a king and the heart of a child

Yeah so gimme a beat cause here I come.

Tonite's the night I'm

Gonna bang my drum. Gotta million watts on the tip of my tongue

And I feel like a trigger on a loaded gun.

Crank up the station. Shake the foundation. Wake up the nation

We got a situation where someone's got a button, connected to a bomb

And it don't matter whose side you're on

They can have it all back by the morning light,

All we want is the world tonite.

Girls wanna dance, the boys wanna fight

Gonna get rocking in the world tonite

Read all about it in black and white

Everybody gone crazy in the world tonite
