I have fallen in love with this ancient, forbidden Boingo that I have discovered.

This is excellent, I wish it had been reworked for a Boingo album later on, would have undoubtedly been a classic IMHO

This song definitely shows signs of Proto-Oingo Boingo and what the band would evolve to become. Danny's voice is amazing as ever.

I sleep all day, stay up all night: thinking of you. Don't got no phone, don't like to talk: nothing to do. So I take to the streets, in my car (in my car), Goin' fast just to find me some action. Cruisin' low nice and smooth like a cat, like a cat; In the darkness, I find satisfaction of the night ride. Cruisin' on the bad side... Ah, ah. Something ahead, must be a fight, but I don't care. Looking for you, babe, all the time, but you're not there. Where I go doesn't matter, got no destination. All I hear is I'm going somewhere! Cuz I look at the trouble-- A chance, take a chance, take a chance, take a chance.... Take a chance (x17) Cruisin' all night long I might find you anywhere, the streets are all empty but there's trouble in the air. Anytime now.... Something's gonna break, gonna break, gonna happen, gonna snap, I can feel it, how electricating (?) I'm driving so fast, now I can take off like a jet, like a jet, try and catch me. I'm a diamond in the sky; Up above the world so high....... So I take to the streets, in my car (in my car), goin' fast just to find me some action. Cruisin' low nice and smooth like a cat, like a cat; In the darkness I find satisfaction of the night ride. Cruisin' on the bad side... Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Yeah, yeah. Take a chance, take a chance in the night Take a chance, (???) Take a chance, take a chance...

I think (?) is ‘how electric can it get?’ And (???) is “‘cause you’ll know for a fight”

This was included in the Forbidden Boingo 1 and 2, including the All The Pieces EP. I'm cruised to hell and yet this song is still great. Thank you for doing a good job at archiving the Boingos!

Some of these tracks are great, like this one and Nuclear Babies, can't believe they never made it onto an official album.

Does anyone have lyrics for this? This is one of my all time favorite Boingo tracks, but I wear hearing aids and have trouble discerning a lot of lines. I’ve never been able to find them online.

7 months late, but I tried to write what I hear. I'm really uncertain about some things, the enunciation is hard to understand for me, so feel free to correct [me]. I hope it's at least able to help you and others a bit. (Edited to fix extra spacing between lines) Lyrics: I sleep all day, stay up all night: thinking of you.
