Verse
Bell goes twice, barman's calling time
Coats still down, nobody's in line
Ice half gone, glass sweats on the rail
Clock says stop but the low end won't fail
Shutter's halfway down the door
Kick keeps pulling us back to the floor
Last call sign, glowing red and blue
Feet don't listen, they know what to do
Pre-Chorus
Who's gonna tell the bassline no?
Who's got a curfew the drums don't know?
Why does the room breathe slower now?
Why do we stay when they say go now?
Chorus
Undertow at last orders, pulling me back in
Lights half up but we start again
Can't hear the bell over skin on skin
Undertow at last orders, take me under, take me in
Verse
Barmaid's counting, coats on chairs
Somebody's shoes left on the stairs
Half-cut sunrise leaking through blinds
We keep dancing, we lose the time
Hand on my waist, hand on the rail
Strobe still catching the end of the tale
They dim the lights but we don't split
Body already back on it
Pre-Chorus
Who's gonna tell the bassline no?
Who's got a curfew the drums don't know?
Why does the room breathe slower now?
Why do we stay when they say go now?
Chorus
Undertow at last orders, pulling me back in
Lights half up but we start again
Can't hear the bell over skin on skin
Undertow at last orders, take me under, take me in
Bridge
Not leaving, not leaving, not yet, not yet
One more bassline, one more sweat
Doorman's shouting, we don't hear
Floor's still holding, we're still here
Not leaving, not leaving, one more round
Pull us under, keep us bound
Chorus
Undertow at last orders, pulling me back in
Lights half up but we start again
Can't hear the bell over skin on skin
Undertow at last orders, take me under, take me in
