Takes

Lyrics

[verse]

Down at the corner bar where the neon barely hums,

There's a band of weekend players tapping out their sums.

Nobody knows their names outside these four cheap walls,

But the way they bend the strings could fill a thousand halls.

[verse]

The singer's got a day job and the drummer drives a cab,

The bass man fixes engines in a little rusted shop.

But when the lights go dim and the crowd starts leaning in,

They forget the world outside and let the music win.

[chorus]

Call them the midnight wonders, call them the corner kings,

Nobody's ever heard of them, but listen how it rings.

Call them the midnight wonders, playing for free tonight,

Just a couple dollars and the neon-colored light.

[verse]

Someday maybe somebody will put them on a stage,

Someday maybe someone will turn a well-worn page.

Till then they'll keep on playing in the back room after dark,

Chasing something golden, chasing just a spark.

[chorus]

Call them the midnight wonders, call them the corner kings,

Nobody's ever heard of them, but listen how it rings.

Call them the midnight wonders, playing for free tonight,

Just a couple dollars and the neon-colored light.

Down at the corner bar where the neon barely hums,
There's a band of weekend players tapping out their sums.
Nobody knows their names outside these four cheap walls,
But the way they bend the strings could fill a thousand halls.

[verse]
The singer's got a day job and the drummer drives a cab,
The bass man fixes engines in a little rusted shop.
But when the lights go dim and the crowd starts leaning in,
They forget the world outside and let the music win.

[chorus]
Call them the midnight wonders, call them the corner kings,
Nobody's ever heard of them, but listen how it rings.
Call them the midnight wonders, playing for free tonight,
Just a couple dollars and the neon-colored light.

[verse]
Someday maybe somebody will put them on a stage,
Someday maybe someone will turn a well-worn page.
Till then they'll keep on playing in the back room after dark,
Chasing something golden, chasing just a spark.

[chorus]
Call them the midnight wonders, call them the corner kings,
Nobody's ever heard of them, but listen how it rings.
Call them the midnight wonders, playing for free tonight,
Just a couple dollars and the neon-colored light.
