Lyrics
In the tiny tiny hours
In the late hours of the night.
(be) tween the evening and the day
Between the transition from evening to day.
We have placed our final bets
A metaphorical reference to making final decisions or commitments.
We have come out to play
Engaging in recreational activities or entertainment.
Fancy drinks a lucky toasts
Celebrating with expensive drinks and offering toasts for good luck.
I like this time the most
Expressing a preference for this specific time.
You're out all night
Describing someone spending the entire night outside.
Chasin' girlies
Pursuing romantic interests.
You're late to work
Being consistently late for work.
And you go home earlies
Leaving work early.
Lookin' lost in Chinatown
Feeling disoriented or confused in Chinatown, a metaphor for a complex situation.
Why are we hidin' from our friends
Questioning the need to hide from friends.
Rushing 'round in taxi cabs
Rushing around in taxis, suggesting a hectic and chaotic lifestyle.
Is it time to make amends
Contemplating the need for reconciliation or making things right.
You'll get yours and I'll get mine
Expecting consequences for one's actions, both positive and negative.
You can't be lucky all the time
Recognizing that luck is not always on one's side.
You're out all night
Repetition of spending the entire night pursuing romantic interests.
Chasin' girlies
Continuing the theme of pursuing romantic interests at night.
You're late to work
Reiterating the pattern of being consistently late for work.
And you go home earlies
Repeating the pattern of leaving work early.
