Madison:
Party girls don't get hurt
Can't feel anything, when will I learn?
I push it down, push it down
Kitty:
I'm the one for a good time call
Phone's blowin' up, ringin' my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love
Madison with Jane, Kitty, and New Directions:
One, two, three
One, two, three, drink
One, two, three
One, two, three, drink
One, two, three
One, two, three, drink
Jane with Kitty and New Directions:
Throw 'em back, till I lose count
Madison with New Directions:
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist, like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
Jane with Kitty and New Directions:
And I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight, on for tonight
Jane:
Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame
Madison with Jane, Kitty and New Directions:
One, two, three
One, two, three, drink
One, two, three
One, two, three, drink
One, two, three
One, two, three, drink
Jane with Kitty and New Directions:
Throw 'em back, till I lose count
Madison with New Directions:
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist, like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
Jane with Kitty and New Directions (Madison):
And I'm holding on for dear life (Ooh)
Won't look down, won't open my eyes (Woah)
Keep my glass full (with Madison: until morning light)
Cause I'm just holding (with Madison: on for tonight)
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life (Woah)
Won't look down, won't open my eyes (I'm holding open my eyes)
Keep my glass full until morning light (Until morning light)
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight (I'm just holding on)
On for tonight (Yeah)
On for tonight
Cause (Oh) (and Madison: I'm just holding on for tonight)
Oh, I'm just holding on for tonight (Oh-oh, oh)
On for tonight, on for tonight (I'm holding on, holding on)
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight (Yeah, yeah)
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holding on for tonight (Ooh)
On for tonight
Jane and Madison with Kitty and New Directions:
On for tonight
