Stay Out Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He's got a Rolling Stones tee
But he only knows one song
They think they're from the 60's
But they were born in 1991

[Verse 2]
There's a man standing in the corner
No one knows quite where he's from
There's a fight between Gill and Lorna
Who's got a tattoo of a peace sign on her thumb
All that and the night has just begun


[Chorus]
So, stay out tonight and see through my eyes
Stay out this time, we'll be home by five
Stay out, stay out, stay out
Stay out, stay out, stay out

[Verse 3]
Checkered shirts and chino trousers
Is this some kind of uniform?

It seems that they think they're gangsters
But they've barely started 6th form

[Verse 4]
She thinks she's in Barbados
But outside it's minus 3

There's a guy outside I'm avoiding
I think that we share some history
That time when he whispered to me
[Chorus]
Now, stay out tonight and see through my eyes
Stay out this time, we'll be home by 5
Stay out, stay out, stay out
Stay out, stay out, stay out

[Bridge]
Cause there's people falling in love around you
And there's people falling over their own shoes


[Pre-Chorus]
All us boys and girls are people
Looking for someone to be
All us boys and girls are people
Waiting for their hearts to beat

[Pre-Chorus]
All us boys and girls are people
Looking for someone to be
All us boys and girls are people
Waiting for their hearts to beat

[Chorus]
Stay out tonight and see through my eyes
Stay out this time, we'll be home by 5
Stay out, stay out, stay out
Stay out, stay out, stay out
