The Blasters are one of those groups that like to do what they do.

They have three basic modes, Hard Partin Howling, Broken Hearted love songs, and Hungover introspection.

This song incorporates all three of those themes very nicely, but mostly the last two.

It's a song about someone who spends a lot of time in bars, a lot of time.

The person singing the song is thinking about the good parts and the bad parts of living that way.

There is going to be a transformation of this ordinary room.

It's going to get dark outside, and "They're going to turn on the colored lights."

What ever magic that brings will happen.

The knowledge gained from spending a lot of time in bars informs every word, ever note.

There's not that much magic left in the world, hardly any in places like the one he sings about.
