Lyrics

Club Bombastic
Just when I was only seventeen
I was a misfit on the scene
Nowhere that I wanted to be
When everyone else was having fun
I was at home or on the run
the emptiness would get into me
I want to be where the smiles were for real
And the crowd looked like in Purple Rain
Oooh me and my furry friends

Now when I got older things have changed
Not for the good to my dismay
What did ever ruin it for me?
See all of them fools in clubs and bars
Doped by the drone of dorks, they're stars
Far away from where I should be
Everyone's clean, smoke- and alcohol-free
Purple juice and strawberry shakes
You and me and the perfect band

Wishing that it was for real the only place I wanna be

Take me to the Club Bombastic
Place of grace - it's so fantastic
A miracle-chant, that's the price you have to pay
Take me to the Club Bombastic
It's the place of sheer, pure magic
All that I want, somewhere to belong

Now when I'm no longer seventeen
I'm still a misfit on the scene
No way I could ever be free
Why there ain't a place where I could go
It's probably there when I'm too old
Murphy's always heading for me (but still I want to see)

Nothing to fear, all my friends are for real
Music like in memory-lane
Oooh my never-never-land

Wishing that it was for real the only place I wanna be

Take me to the Club Bombastic
Place of grace - it's so fantastic
A miracle-chant, that's the price you have to pay
Take me to the Club Bombastic
It's the place of sheer, pure magic
All that I want, somewhere to belong

I wanna be where my friends are for real
And the crowd looks like in Purple Rain
Ooooh me and the perfect band

Wishing that it was for real the only place I wanna be

Take me to the Club Bombastic
Place of grace - it's so fantastic
A miracle-chant, that's the price you have to pay
Take me to the Club Bombastic
It's the place of sheer, pure magic
All that I want, somewhere to belong

Take me to the Club Bombastic
Place of grace - it's so fantastic
A miracle-chant, that's the price you have to pay
Take me to the Club Bombastic
It's the place of sheer, pure magic
All that I want, somewhere to belong
