    Take me out tonight
    Where there's music and there's people
    And they're young and alive
    Driving in your car
    I never never want to go home
    Because I haven't got one
    Anymore
    Take me out tonight
    Because I want to see people and I
    Want to see life
    Driving in your car
    Oh, please don't drop me home
    Because it's not my home, it's their
    Home, and I'm welcome no more
    And if a double-decker bus
    Crashes into us
    To die by your side
    Is such a heavenly way to die
    And if a ten-ton truck
    Kills the both of us
    To die by your side
    Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
    Take me out tonight
    Take me anywhere, I don't care
    I don't care, I don't care
    And in the darkened underpass
    I thought oh God, my chance has come at last
    (but then a strange fear gripped me and I
    Just couldn't ask)
    Take me out tonight
    Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care
    I don't care, I don't care
    Driving in your car
    I never never want to go home
    Because I haven't got one, da...
    Oh, I haven't got one
    And if a double-decker bus
    Crashes into us
    To die by your side
    Is such a heavenly way to die
    And if a ten-ton truck
    Kills the both of us
    To die by your side
    Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
    Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
    There is a light and it never goes out
    There is a light and it never goes out
    There is a light and it never goes out
    There is a light and it never goes out
    There is a light and it never goes out
    There is a light and it never goes out
    There is a light and it never goes out
    There is a light and it never goes out

    It's haunting because of this fantastic bass line
    The chorus doesn't kick in until end of song with melody
    "There is a light and it never goes out"
    But throughout all the song the Bass player is playing melody on Bass guitar as opposed to rhythm
    I think thats why it gets under your skin all way through
    Until at end Morrissey sings
    the melody
    "There is a light and it never goes out" over and over
    Perfectly in alignment with bass notes until it fades out
    Brilliant masterpiece of music
