Something to wind him up
It won’t take long to find him
When it comes on strong
Black skies a grinning, street lights are spinning
The night is just beginning, when it comes on strong
It comes on strong, and I am lifted
It comes on strong, and I am lifted
I am lifted, I am lifted

Он it comes on strong, and I am lifted.
It comes on strong, and I am lifted.
I am lifted, I am lifted!
(Chorus)
Он I can’t get down,
Он Он Онhhhhhhh
I can’t get down
