  • That night down at the karaoke, I was in the groove
    Someone tried some Dylan
    But the place remained unmoved
    A guy then goofed through Elvis
    Why not? I thought, why not?
    If you want it, you can own it
    Just aim and take a shot

    Do you sing to heal the broken hearted?
    Faces to the wall
    Or do you sing to get the party started?
    Oh, not at all
    Do you sing to heal the broken hearted?
    Faces to the wall
    Or do you sing to get the party started?

    At one came the regulars, knew the songs and the keys
    When that girl sang Spotlight, the place was on it's knees
    I like the mic and I like the dark
    I like the mood and it lights a spark

    Do you sing to heal the broken hearted?
    Oh, you know I do
    Or do you sing to get the party started?
    And I love that too
    Do you sing to heal the broken hearted?
    You know I tried
    Or do you sing to get the party started?

    What's it for? Well, who knows
    You take a breath and here it goes
    You hit the highs and own the lows
    You hit the highs and you own the lows

    I like the mic
    I like the dark
    I like the mood

    I'm alone in the crowd
    And the spotlight's on me now
    Is this working? Are you feeling something?
    Do you see me? I'm standing in the light
    Are we feeling something?

    Do you sing to heal the broken hearted?
    Oh, you know I do
    Or do you sing to get the party started?
    And you know I love that too

    I like the mic
    I like the dark
    I like the mood Writer/s: Ben Watt, Tracey Thorn
