Tonight she's got no plans
But there's a glass in her hand
And the smoke in her lungs
Reminders her that she's young
And the vodka and the mixer's gone straight to her head
And she's looking for a man she's looking for a bed
Tonight, someone to hold her tight
And she's talking to her mates and they've heard it before
Coz they know she'll end up on the bathroom floor
Tonight, she just might
But she'll be hitting up the town
And tearing it down
If your mother could hear the words that come out your mouth
What would daddy say if he could see you now?
As you're hitting up the town and tearing it down
So tear it down
Tear it down
And she'll dance on the floor
Drink and drink some more
Echo before you call
And hit the ground before you fall
And there's arms around her that she doesn't know
And the hands on her hips are moving slow
Tonight, she won't put up a fight
And he says "Mine or yours?" well it's all the same
And he calls her "Baby" coz her don't know her name
Tonight, guess he's done all right
And they'll be hitting up the town
And tearing it down
If your mother could hear the words that come out your mouth
What would daddy say if he could see you now?
As you're hitting up the town and tearing it down
So tear it down
Tear up the town
They both lie down
And sleep before they wake
But she arrives a bit too late
Read between the lines
The nurse says, "You'll be fine"
As her life's put on hold
Until she brings a life into this world
When you were hitting up the town
And tearing it down
You'll be a mother all too soon, only 9 months from now
Where did daddy go? Well he's never around
Because he's hitting up the town and tearing it down
So tear it down
Tear it down
Where did daddy go?
Where did daddy go?
