Verse 2:
N.C.
Whack, please get back, wake up on the attack
Work myself frantic to the moon and back
Now it's evening and the sausages are frying out back
I write my rhyme for this track as the sky fade to black

N.C.
Now I remember earlier in the day as I was swimming through the bay
A augmentedA bass player I know swum my way, he said, "G'day
Hey wanna go see some reggae?
Starts at 8 and plays through to sunrise the next day"

N.C.
So 9 o'clock sees me heading out towards to tabernacle
Hardcore reggae beat bring me feet out of these shackles
Hardcore reggae DJ I Salute you, crackle crackle crackle
Crackle of the vinyl, now I'm high, now a spectacular night ahead

N.C.
I met a Mexican called Juan (There's a party on the hill would you like to come?)
Yeah (And bring a bottle of rum)
Can't afford it, but I bought it
Right then I sung

N.C.
It's nights like these that you know that your alive
Nights like these that you know that you got fire
Nights like these when you don't have to try
Fall in love and kiss and smile from every girl walking by

N.C.
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
And my eyes want to cry cause the night and the sky
Is so high and my life is sublime and it's mine and it's time
(It's now time)

N.C.
It's nights like these when you know that your alive
Nights like these when you know that you got fire
Nights like these when you're laughing til you cry
Nights like these when I'm drowning in your eyes

N.C.
It's nights like these when you know that your alive
Nights like these when you know that you got fire
Nights like these when you're laughing til you cry
It's all about love and giving

Outro:
  C majorC          DmDm
And dirty hands, I like them see
       G+G            G+G
They make the music that we play sound oh so sweet
    C majorC           DmDm
And my mother always made me eat broccoli
    G+G         G+G
And now look at me, I'm as strong as can be
      C majorC         DmDm
So put some spice in my sauce, honey in my tea
  G+G           G+G
An ace up my sleeve and a slinky plan b
      C majorC       DmDm
And most importantly, my mad family
       G+G
That made me lucky and for that I'll sing about days like these
