Lyrics

(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 I met up with an acrobat
 In Brooklyn or some place like that
 With life and taxis flying past
 We tore that dance hall down
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Pocket change and subway cars
 And our big ideas filled empty bars
 We might be from the moon or Mars
 Either way, I'm never going home
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 So let's hang an anchor from the sun
 There's a million city lights, but you're number one
 You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
 Just to see your face
 We'll be going strong, with the vampires, baby
 We belong, we belong awake
 (Swinging from the fire escape)
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 I was drinking from the wishing well
 Some junkie metal-head hotel
 When we boarded the carousel
 The roof was caving in
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 And on the stage, my ox blood friend
 Was singing songs about the end
 The bankers in the lion's den
 They're dropping lines like beggars in the snow
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 So let's hang an anchor from the sun
 There's a million city lights, but you're number one
 You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
 Just to see your face
 We'll be going strong, with the vampires, baby
 We belong, we belong awake
 Swinging from the fire escape
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Swinging from the fire escape
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Swinging from the fire escape
 Walking home, your hand in mine
 Tattoos on the river line
 The morning birds are taking flight
 Either way, I thought that you should know (woo)
 You're my number one
 You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
 Just to see your face
 We'll be going strong, with the vampires, baby
 We belong, we belong awake
 You're my number one
 You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
 Just to see your face
 We'll be going strong, with the vampires, baby
 We belong, we belong awake
 Swinging from the fire escape
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Swinging from the fire escape
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Swinging from the fire escape
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Swinging from the fire escape
 (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
