The things we say in the heat of the night
The things we say in the heat of the night
I'll be the North, you be South
You pulled me in as you got out
You're telling me to calm down
(The things we say in the heat of the night)
Now everything is coming out
(The things we say in the heat of the night)
It's the way you carry on and the way that you lie
It's under harsh lights, baby, we say our goodbye
It's been a long time coming, so don't act surprised
The things we say in the heat of the night
I hear a choir of slot machines
Breaking of glass and wasted teens
You're telling me to calm down
(The things we say in the heat of the night)
We really need to settle this now
(The things we say in the heat of the night)
It's the way you carry on and the way that you lie
It's under harsh lights, baby, we say our goodbye
It's been a long time coming, so don't act surprised
