Hey little kitty with your tail dragging on the floor
You could have a following every town that you go
But you remember what you said to me
You are nothing without me
‘Cos I invented the night
Yeah I invented the night
Mixing elements of the strangest kind
Hey little birdie flying till your wings desert you
And when you come down, come down on me
‘Cos you know I will never hurt you
But maybe once or twice I’ll ruffle your feathers
‘Cos you said we should always be together
‘Cos I invented the night
Yeah I invented the night
In my laboratory
Using lust and lies
And should your invention be destroyed in a fire
John it’s only money
I give you Tuesday night and Wednesday night and Thursday night
And Friday night
The weekend is a sea of electric light
Turn it on!
Hey!
Hey little doggy always looking for a bigger bone
Try to see how many times that you can run away from home
But in the end you always come back to me
‘Cos you are nothing without me
‘Cos I invented the night
Yeah I invented the night
Mixing elements of the strangest kind
Ooh yeah!
