Massive Nights Lyrics


The guys were feeling good about their liquor run
The girls were kinda flirting with the setting sun
We all kinda fumbled through the Jitterbug
We were all powered up on some new upper drug
Everyone was funny and everyone was pretty
And everyone was coming towards the center of the city
The dance floor was crowded, the bathrooms were worse
We kissed in your car and we drank from your purse
I had my mouth on her nose
When the chaperon said that we were dancing too close
We had some massive nights, every song was right
All that wine was tight
And your friends were pretty cool
And my friends were acting cool

And there weren't any fights
There's usually one or two
Some guys they get a little bit uptight
Some girls they got something to prove
We had some massive highs
We had some crushing lows
We had some lusty little crushes
We had those all ages hardcore matinee shows
I was down on my knees
When the chaperon said that it was time for me to leave
We had some massive nights and every song was right
All that wine was tight
Your friends were pretty cool
And my friends were acting cool
And there weren't any fights
There's usually one or two
Some guys they get a little bit uptight
Some girls they got something to prove
We had some massive nights
We had some massive nights
We had some massive nights
We had some massive nights
We had some massive nights and every song was right
All that wine was tight
Your friends were pretty cool
And my friends were acting cool
She had the gun in her mouth
And she was shooting up at her dreams
When the chaperon said that we'd been crowned
The king and the queen

The Hold Steady is a Brooklyn-based rock band formed by vocalist/guitarist Craig Finn (ex-Lifter Puller) in 2004. Wanting to capture the sound of bands such as The Replacements and The Grifters, he recruited guitarist Tad Kubler (also ex-Lifter Puller), drummer Judd Counsell, and bassist Galen Polivka. In 2005 the band grew to include Franz Nicolay (of The World/Inferno Friendship Society) on keyboards and Bobby Drake took over on drums following Counsell's departure.

Recording mostly live, the band released its debut, Almost Killed Me, on French Kiss Records in March 2004 and Separation Sunday a year later. In April 2006 the band signed to Vagrant Records and entered the studio on the 1st of May to begin work on their third record, Boys And Girls In America. Released in October, it was one of the most critically acclaimed records of 2006 and reached a much larger audience than its predecessors.

The band released their fourth album, Stay Positive, recorded again with Boys And Girls In America producer John Agnello. Nicolay left the group and on May 4, 2010 the band released their fifth studio album, Heaven Is Whenever, recorded with producer Dean Baltulonis.


On July 15, 2008, Stay Positive was released. It debuted at #30 on the Billboard 200. It debuted on the UK Album Chart at #15 on July 20, the third-highest new entry. It ranked #1 on the UK Indie Chart. The album was named the best of 2008 by Entertainment Weekly. The song "Constructive Summer" was number 56 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best Songs of 2008.
