Hey little kitty with your tail dragging on the floor You could have a following in every town that you go But you remember what you said to me That you are nothing without me Cuz I invented the night Yeah I invented the night In my laboratory using lust and lies Hey little birdie fly until your wings desert you And when you come down, come down on me cuz you know I will never hurt you But maybe once or twice I'll ruffle your feathers Cuz you said we should always be together Cuz I invented the night Yeah I invented the night Mixing elements of the strangest kind And should your invention be destroyed in a fire John, it's only Monday I gave you Tuesday night and Wednesday night and Friday night The weekend is a sea of electric light Turn it on Hey little doggy always looking for a bigger bone Try to see how many times that you can run away from home But in the end you always come back to me Cuz you are nothing without me Cuz I invented the night Yeah I invented the night Mixing elements of the strangest kind
