To the fine folks at the Los Bastardos Rocky cast, and to absent friends.

lyrics

"Midnight"
Delaney

Oh to be seventeen again
Cat piss house and a mean old man
A couple friends who understand
Cause they grew up just the same

Connie, Chuy, Jack, and Beth
She's in love with Meredith
Who's been saying she'll kill herself
Since I can't remember when

While the whole damn world's a 4A football game
Well, we knew where we'd be when Friday came

Midnight
At The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Eyeliner and pantyhose
That's where I wanna go
Someday
I believe I'm gonna leave this town
Cross that bridge and burn it down
But I ain't thinking about it now
Tonight it's me and my best girl and the old routine
And those fearless bastards shadowing the screen

They punk me every day at school
Call me faggot in the locker room
But hell I'll get it worse at home
If it's one of those bad days

So I just keep quiet and try to bide my time
Singing "Science Fiction" in the back of my mind

Midnight
At The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Eyeliner and pantyhose
That's where I wanna go
Someday
I believe I'm gonna leave this town
Cross that bridge and burn it down
But I ain't thinking about it now
Tonight it's me and my best guy and the old routine
And those fearless bastards shadowing the screen

Things changed
Back in '99 when we lost M
Chose our paths and off we went
Never did the Time Warp again

At midnight
At The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Eyeliner and pantyhose
That's where I'd wanna go
Back then
Before I up and left that town
Crossed that bridge and burn it down
Well I'm thinking about it now
About me and my best friends and the old routine
And everything I was at seventeen

Midnight
At The Rocky Horror Picture Show
