Rock All Night


Song: Rock All Night
Album: Big Villain
Artist: Big Villain
Written by Toussaint Morrison
Released November 29, 2011


Closin’ time and it’s time to set the hype
First cut from the shift and it’s a quarter to nine
Aprons off and tables’ still tryin’ to order they wine,
But lady I can’t help ya cos’ I’m orderin’ mine
Hierarchy of the sharks and I don’t swim my part
They say a smile’s only worth disguises of the heart
This tables on the legs of music, meaning and purpose
Not at the whim of HR and customer service

I’m out in a blur of missed calls and neglected texts
First thing’s first: shower off the mess
Smellin’ like a corporate kitchen and sanitized livin’
Workin’ with the puzzle whether or not I fit in it
Rarely a weekend I can kick it in the city
So the times that I can, my whole teams with me
Shleppin’ on some Old Spice, got a call from Mark Esh
He said it’s uptown or 1st Ave.- well let’s get it started
-
Chorus
Alright, well then it’s alright
And if it’s ok, well then it’s ok
And if it’s alright, well then it’s alright
And if it’s ok, well then it’s ok
We can rock all night- yes, all night
We can rock all day- yes, all day
We can rock all night- yes, all night
We can rock all day- yes, all day
-
I go Joe Montana when I’m passin’ through your region
’97 Honda Civic rollin’ on a reject
You don’t need to see it, believe it when you feel it
PBR on me- long as someone drink
I’m always in motion, you think I’d get seasick
La ola es mia and everyday’s surfin’ season
We can make room, got a seat if ya need it
Save a lil’ tip money and scuffed up adidas

Wing man on the flyin’ V. It’s on.
I roll with small talkers and big drinkers. Vince Vaughn.
Any problems on the plane? Get off.
I’ll see ya in the next sequel. Jigsaw
We throwdown enough to come back up
Goin’ too far for us really ain’t that tough
In the midst of potential bar-fighters and lovers
We take the best of both and it’s no wonder that if it’s alright…

Chorus

Attention gentlemen and ladies
Good day, good day b-boys and b-girls
I’m glad to see that y’all could make it
Please tip your server and enjoy yourselves
Whether you’re jobless or employed
On the run or standin’ in line to get yours
I’m sure we can agree most evidently
How to get down, make noise and get joy

We peace out the venue like “Good Mornin’”
Swimmin’ thru a tsunami of bodies like a swordfish
3am and it gets no finer
Showin’ up 10-deep to the nearest grease diner
Tipsy and rough around the edges,
But I can’t discriminate the time and place for breakfast
Got an appetite, yes indeed I gotta have it
Everything omelette, hashbrowns like magic

No regrets is how we flex
We talk how we eat and for some that’s a stretch
Good company and good business
Women past and present still wishin’ us a good riddance
But we do what we do and we push it like a shoppin’ cart
Raisin’ eyebrows and puttin’ curves in the question mark
And even after a label’s writin’ out down payments
We’ll still be livin’ by the statement

Chorus
