  • Closing is the gift to the night shift
    And now you've got two minutes to go!

    Swept up the floors, locked all the doors, lights out!
    And now it's time to go

    You hear the bounce and the bounce in the parking lot
    And the night just got to a point where it's gonna blow

    You were doing your best
    'Till you got punched in the chest
    And the leader said: "There's something you oughta know"

    He said: "My people need a place to Go!" (Go!)
    My people need a place to Go! (Go!)
    People need a place to go
    People need a place to go

    Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
    They down with Ronnell McDonnell
    And now they hitting the bottle
    And everybody cool!

    Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
    They down with Ronell McDonnell
    And now they hitting the bottle
    And everybody cool!

    You notice methods getting crude
    Language is rude
    And you just wanna go!

    All you wanna do is make it stop
    So you call the cops, but the cops they never show

    The leader sees your fear
    So he pulls you near
    Says "Son – there's something you ought to know"

    He said "Time ceases its marches at the golden archezzz
    And that's what we're here for."

    He said: "My people need a place to Go!" (Go!)
    My people need a place to Go! (Go!)
    People need a place to go
    People need a place to go

    Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
    They down with Ronnell McDonnell
    And now they hitting the bottle
    And everybody cool!

    Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
    They down with Ronnell McDonnell
    And now they hitting the bottle
    And everybody cool!
    Cool!

    The leader's gonna make you party
    Preventing you from departing
    The leader is the party
    The party is the leader's mind

    He said: "My people need a place to Go!" (Go!)
    My people need a place to Go! (Go!)
    People need a place to go
    People need a place to go

    Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
    They down with Ronnell McDonnell
    And now they hitting the bottle
    And everybody cool!

    Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
    They down with Ronnell McDonnell
    And now they hitting the bottle
    And everybody cool!

    He said: "My people need a place to Go!" (Go!)
    My people need a place to Go! (Go!)
    People need a place to go
    People need a place to go

    Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
    They down with Ronnell McDonnell
    And now they hitting the bottle
    And everybody cool!

    Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
    They down with Ronnell McDonnell
    And now they hitting the bottle
    And everybody cool!

    It's the leader's mind
    It's the leader's mind
    Yeah! (Go!)
    Oh!
    (Go!)
    (Go!)
    (Go!) (Go!)
    (Go!) Oh!
    Oh! Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
