Everybody's gettin' down tonight
In the Heartbreak Club while the moon is bright

Hear the blues band playin' their slow lament
See the mournful patrons dance their dark torment
The air is smoky and the lights are low
And the deadbeats cry with every drum beat blow

Everybody's gettin' down tonight
In the Heartbreak Club while the moon is bright

One woman is drinking a bottle of tears
Topping it off with a cocktail of fears
And the man at the bar wipes the glasses with woe
And frowns at the misers as they come and go

Everybody's gettin' down tonight
In the Heartbreak Club while the moon is bright

There's a junk round the backstreet injecting depression
Wondering when his heart will make an impression
Upon his dear sweetheart who's up on the dancefloor
With her tongue down the throat of another manwhore

Everybody's gettin' down tonight
In the Heartbreak Club while the moon is bright
