The front door clicks shut and I'm not sneaking inside
The waiter just nods and points me to a table
I ask for the menu, they say it expired at noon
I tell them I'll take quiet and a bucket of ice
They bring me a pitcher and raise an eyebrow
The jukebox is picky, it only plays slow
I'm dancing between tables with my drink in hand
They're mopping the floor around my two-tone shoes
The spatula drummer keeps beat on the grill
Fryer starts humming a bassline for me
The manager laughs and changes the playlist
I'm not a customer, I'm the night's owner
The lights are all off but I know every corner here
The kitchen is mine for a while, the counter's my bar
No clock in the whole world can tell me no
I'm already a part of the late show
The clock skips midnight
A bell on the counter rings twice
I own this room's beautiful silence
The door can stay locked while I'm dancing
A chair is my guest
And I twirl like the room isn't watching
I'm making my own rules for tonight
The owner can wait, open sign can wait
So I stay
The tables all move out of my way
The night guard tilts his cap like he knows the game
The specials board changes to read my name
I order what I'm craving from a private booth
They serve it with celery 'cause I just smiled
The ice cubes are planets and the spoon is the moon
I'm making a fort with the napkin rings and the straws
The waitress decides the dessert is on the house
I ask if the back pantry opens at five
She says, 'It's always open when you arrive'
The floor starts to tilt just so I can catch the beat
The ceiling fans dance when I sing with my head back
The cash register's still sleeping, the drawer stays open
I'm spinning a coin on the counter, it never lands
The night's got no schedule for me to keep
So I dance down the aisles till I sleep
The clock skips midnight
A bell on the counter rings twice
This floor is a stage and I'm in it
I'm humming a song no one wrote yet
The chairs stand in rows
I pour out my laughter on the metal
The daytime can stay out, I've got space
No ticket, no dress code, I own the place
That's my night
