When the music's over


Yeah, c'mon

When the music's over
When the music's over here
When the music's over
Turn out the lights
Turn out the lights
Turn out the lights

When the music's over
When the music's over
When the music's over
Turn out the lights
Turn out the lights
Turn out the lights

For the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
Music is your only friend
Until the end
Until the end
Until the end

Cancel my subscription to the resurrection
Send my credentials to the house of detention
I got some friends inside

The face in the mirror won't stop
The girl in the window won't drop
A feast of friends alive she cried
Waiting for me outside

Before I sink into the big sleep
I want to hear
I want to hear
The scream of the butterfly

Come back, baby
Back into my arms

We're getting tired of hangin' around
Waitin' around
With our heads to the ground

I hear a very gentle sound
Very near
Yet very far
Very soft
Yet very clear
Come today
Come today

What have they done to the earth?
What have they done to our fair sister?

Ravaged and plundered
And ripped her
And bit her
Stuck her with knives
In the side of the dawn
And tied her with fences
And dragged her down

I hear a very gentle sound
With your ear down to the ground—
We want the world and we want it,
We want the world and we want it, now
Now? Now!

Persian night! babe
See the light! babe
Save us!
Jesus!
Save us!

So when the music's over
When the music's over, yeah
When the music's over
Turn out the light
Turn out the light

For the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
Music is your only friend
Until the end
Until the end
Until the end

So when the music's over
When the music's over, yeah
When the music's over
Turn out the light
Turn out the light

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics WHEN THE MUSIC'S OVER of THE DOORS is also present in the album Strange days (1967)

Biografia

The Doors were an American rock band formed in Venice Beach, California, in 1965. The group consisted of Jim Morrison (vocals), Robby Krieger (guitar), Ray Manzarek (organ) and John Densmore (drums). Known for their psychedelic sound and Morrison's theatrical performances, The Doors achieved international fame in the 1960s with songs like "Light My Fire", "Riders on the Storm" and "The End". Their music explored dark themes such as death, sexuality and American society. After the tragic death of Morrison in 1971, the band continued to record for a few years, but without reaching the past successes. The Doors are considered one of the most influential rock bands in history, with a legacy that continues to inspire artists and fans worldwide.
