For a hundred krugerrand I’m sure
You would sell your father and mother
With a margarita in one hand and
Your car keys in the other
You said that you like to water-ski
But that sounds like a tall story to me
Just another lie from Midnight Guy
The bar is straight out of Edward Hopper
I must say I admire your stamina
When you’re out on the discotheque floor
Don’t stop ‘til you get enough, no
Your last girlfriend was a croupier
But that makes perfect sense to me
What with your vampiric tendencies
The city skyline reflected in your shades
Yet another of your escapades
Right on cue, the familiar sound
Of helicopter blades, yeah
Seeking sanctuary from the day
Are you allergic to the sun?
Fleeing from the ultra violet rays
With a hangover of biblical proportions
Come fly with me, let’s fly, let’s fly away
Never mind the wherefore or the why
You’re the legendary Midnight Guy
The city skyline reflected in your shades
Yet another of your escapades
Right on cue, the familiar sound
Of an air boat in the Everglades
