Closing Time
Foo Fighters · Other Songs - Foo Fighters
And let you out into the world
Closing time, turn all of the lights on
Over every boy and every girl
Closing time, one last call for alcohol
So finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time, you donÂ’t have to go home
But you canÂ’t stay here
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
Take me home
Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
Closing time, this room wonÂ’t be open
Till your brothers or your sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginningÂ’s end
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
Take me home
Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
Take me home
Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginningÂ’s end
