I've been watching you all night, [G] Diane.
[D] Nobody's found a way [A] behind your advances.
[D] They [G] never noticed the zap gun in your hand.
Until [D] you're pointing it [F#] and starting [Bm] to dance.
All [G] night long.
All night long.
You shoot [D] him down because [Bm] you're waiting for somebody [A] to come [G] on.

[G] [D] Oh, you say you're looking [G] for someone [D] solid [G] here.
You [D] can't be bothered with no stress for [A] the night, [D] boy.
[A] Tonight I'll let you [Bm] take some [G] kind of chances, dear.
[D] Tomorrow morning [E] you'll wake up with [F#] the white [F#m] noise.
All [G] night long.

I [D] know you don't need [A] anybody's protection.
[D] I [A] really wish I [G] was less of a thinking man and [D] more a fool who's [E] not afraid of [B] addiction.
