I see some bad dudes fightin'
I see a rumble on the way,
I fear violence ignitin'
I fear a bad night for affray.

Don't go out tonight,
'Cos there's bound to be a fight,
There's a bad mood in their eyes.

I hear wooden chairs a-throwin'
I know the cops are comin' soon,
I see the nightclubs overflowin'
I hear the noise of trouble brewin'

Don't go out at night,
'Cos one of them just might
Plant you one right in the eye.

(Alright)

Hope you got some sense together,
Hope you have listened for a while.
Looks like you're really kinda clever -
You won't get taken for a ride.

Don't go out at night,
'Cos they're a rowdy bunch all-right,
To stay at home is good advice.

Weeelll, don't go out tonight,
'Cos they're a-bound to prove me right -
Heed my warning to the wise.
