Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Locked in a building, the place is on fire
Up in the penthouse taking a view
Alarms are ringing, the second are ticking
The canisters fly and everyone laughs
And everyone laughs
[Verse 2]
This is the new world, this is your time
Down in the basement dancing again
Everybody get ready to sing
When the lights go out, when the lights go out
Come join the party at club vertigo
Move to the search light songs
Everybody get ready to clap your hands
When the lights go out, when the lights go out
[Verse 3]
Out with the old war, in with the new
Dressed to the nines, atomic chic looked so good on you
The tight guys trend for a new generation
For a new radiation
And everyone laughs, and everyone laughs
[Verse 4]
This is the new world, this is your time
Down in the basement dancing again
Everybody get ready to sing
When the lights go out, when the lights go out
Come join the party at club vertigo
Move to the search light songs
Everybody get ready to clap your hands
When the lights go out, when the lights go out
[Verse 5]
Dance to the last song, stay with me
Over and over, tell me you love me
Tell me the words that I want to hear
Let's embrace, let's embrace
And wait for the all clear
[Verse 6]
This is the new world, this is your time
Down in the basement dancing again
Everybody get ready to sing
When the lights go out, when the lights go out
Come join the party at club vertigo
Move to the search light songs
Everybody get ready to clap your hands
When the lights go out, when the lights go out
