But you remember what you said to me
Always looking for a bigger bone
Yeah, I invented the night
And when you come down, come down on me
In my laboratory using lust and lies
Mixing elements of the strangest kind
Yeah, I invented the night
The weekend is a sea of electric light
But maybe once or twice I'll ruffle your feathers
'Cause I invented the night
And should your invention be destroyed in a fire
'Cause you are nothing without me
John, it's only Monday
Turn it on
Yeah, I invented the night
Hey little doggy
You could have a following in every town that you go
I gave you Tuesday night and Wednesday night and Friday night
'Cause you said we should always be together
But in the end you always come back to me
'Cause I invented the night
'Cause I invented the night
Try to see how many times that you can run away from home
Hey little birdie fly until your wings desert you
'Cause you know I will never hurt you
That you are nothing without me
