Genesis - Tonight lyrics

I'm coming down

coming down like a monkey

but it's alright.

Like a load on your back that you can't see

but it's alright.

Try to shake it loose

cut it free

so let it go

just get it away from me.

'Cause tonight

tonight

tonight

I'm gonna make it right tonight

tonight

tonight.

I'm going down

going down like a monkey

but it's alright.

Try to pick yourself up

carry that weight that you can't see

Don't you know it's alright?

It's like a helter skelter

going down and down

Round and round

but just get it away from me.

Because tonight

tonight

tonight

We're gonna make it right tonight

tonight

tonight.

I got some money in my pocket

about ready to burn

I don't remember where I got it

I gotta get it to you.

So please answer the phone

'cause I keep calling

But you're never home

what am I gonna do?

Tonight

tonight

tonight

I'm gonna make it right tonight

tonight

tonight.

You keep telling me I've got everything

you say I've got everything I want.

You keep telling me you're gonna help me

you're gonna help me

But you don't!

But now I'm in too deep

you see it's got me so that I just can't sleep.

Get me out of here

please get me out of here.

Just help me

I'll do anything

anything if you'll just help

Get me out of here!

I'm coming down

coming down like a monkey

but it's alright. . . .

'Cause tonight

tonight

tonight

Maybe we'll make it right tonight

tonight

tonight.

Please get me out of here

just someone get me out of here

Just help me

I'll do anything

anything if you'll just help

Get me out of here!

Tonight

I'm gonna make it right tonight

tonight

tonight.

Tonight

tonight

tonight

I'm gonna make it right tonight

tonight

tonight.
