She loves Wellington, she was born there
She grew up out in the Hutt Valley
Then she left home looking for something
She thought she'd find it in the city
She'd go dancing in the weekends
Her friends were starting up new bands
Tight black dresses and hairspray
Talking about
Tomorrow night, about 8 o'clock
Tomorrow night, when the town starts filling up
Tomorrow night 'bout the time that the pubs start jumping
And the drunks start fighting
We'll start dancing
She went to London to find work there
To claim her colonial birthright
Cleaning hotel rooms in the mother country
While people trudged to work in the dim light
She'd go dancing in the nightclubs
On the underground she'd ride
Talking loud in a Kiwi accent
Talking about
Tomorrow night, about 8 o'clock
Tomorrow night, when the town starts filling up
Tomorrow night 'bout the time that the pubs start jumping
And the band starts playing
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
We'll start dancing
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
We'll start dancing
We'll start dancing
She's flying over Wellington Harbour
Oriental Bay standing there in the sunlight
And they're playing a tape for the landing
Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
No, she didn't want to stay there
She's on her flight
She'll be standing on the same ground as we are
Tomorrow night, about 8 o'clock
Tomorrow night, when the town starts filling up
Tomorrow night 'bout the time that the pubs start jumping
And the band starts playing
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
We'll start dancing
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
We'll start dancing
Tomorrow night 'bout the time that the pubs start jumping
And the drunks start fighting
We'll start dancing
