Midnight in Chelsea lyrics

The kids round here look just like sticks

They trade old licks with a beat up six

I just smile and catch the groove

Gothic girls all dressed in black

Serious as heart attacks

Takes a little bit of getting used to

The old man with the whisky stains

Lost the night, forgot his name

His poor wife will sleep alone again

And it ain't hard to understand

Why she's holding onto her own hand

It's midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala)

Midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala)

No one's asking me for favors (shalalala, shalala)

No one's looking for a savior

They're too busy ... saving me (shalalala, shalala)

I've seen a lone sloane ranger drive

Seems her chauffeur took a dive

And sold her secrets to the Sun

And later in a magazine

I finally figured what it means

To be a saint, not a queen

Two lustful lovers catch a spark

Chase their shadows in the dark

Someone's getting off tonight

A big red bus that's packed so tight disappears in a trail of light

Somewhere someone's dreaming baby it's alright....

It's midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala)

Midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala)

No one's asking me for favors (shalalala, shalala)

No one's looking for a savior

They're too busy saving me (shalalala, shalala)

(shalalala, shalala)

Midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala)

No one's pinned their dreams on me

No one's asking me to bleed

I'm the man I wanna be

When Chelsea girls sing

Shalalala, shalalala

Shalalala, shalala, oh

Shalalala, shalalala

Shalalala, shalala, oh, oh ...

It's morning when I go to sleep

In the distant dawn a church bell rings

Another day is coming on

A baby's born, an old man dies

Somewhere young lovers kiss good bye

I leave my soul and just move on

And wish that I was there to sing this song

(shalalala, shalala)

(shalalala, shalala)

It's midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala)

Oh, midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala)

No one's asking me for favors (shalalala, shalala)

No one's looking for a savior

They're too busy saving me (shalalala, shalala)

It's midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala) woh (shalalala, shalala) yeah

No one's pinned their dreams on me

No one's asking me to bleed

I'm the man I wanna be

The man I wanna be, the man I wanna be (shalalala, shalala)

Midnight in Chelsea (shalalala, shalala...)
