[Verse 1: Luke & (Crowd)]
Taste on your tongue, oh, the smoke in your lungs
And I need your love, go! (and I) need your love
The salt on your skin is pulling me in
And I need your love, go! (and I) need your love

[Pre-Chorus: Luke, *Ashton* & (Crowd)]
And I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
And watch you walk away
And I don't wanna let it burn in the city lights *1, 2, 3*
Brixton, as loud as you can
(And make the same mistakes, this time)

[Chorus: Luke & Calum]
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste, don't wanna waste the night
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste the night

[Verse 2: Calum]
Scratch in your voice leaves me no choice
And I won't give up, and I, I can't give up

[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
And I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
And watch you walk away
And I don't wanna let it burn in the city lights
Now as loud as you can, c'mon

[Chorus: Luke & Calum]
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste the night
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste, don't wanna waste the night

[Bridge: Michael]
And I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
And I don't wanna let it burn in the city lights
Okay

[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
And I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
And watch you walk away
And I don't wanna let it burn
London get those hands up in the sky, get those hands up!
Bring them down

[Chorus: Luke & All & Calum]
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste the night
And I don't wanna waste tonight
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it (ohh)
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste the night

[Postlude: Ashton & (Crowd)]
How we feeling London?
Brixton Academy sold the fuck out, let's go!
Oh yeah
Give it up for my brothers up on stage: Luke, Calum and Michael

Now tonight
I need tonight to be a fucking good one London, let's do it
I need you to scream and shout and fucking party like no other time you have
Hey
I want this to be everything I ever dreamed of in here
We haven't played this one yet, let's do it!
Now we've played the Barfly to the O2 but we haven't played the Brixton

When we started here in 2012, we fly over from Australia for the first time
And we played a small acoustic show at Marble Arch, who was there? There was one 10 of ya
And now tonight we've got four and a half thousand 5 Seconds of Summer fans with us tonight!
And I need to know, are you with us out there tonight? Are you with us?
Then get those hands up in the air like this, oh yeah
Say oh yeah! (Oh yeah!)

Now I need you, keep 'em up!
In this next song everybody in this building is gonna bounce with us, can you do that?
Can you do that?
Yes!

This is one of my favourites: it's called More, let's go!

5 Seconds of Summer is an Australian pop-punk band composed of Luke Hemmings, Calum Hood, Ashton Irwin, and Michael Clifford.

Their first EP, Somewhere New, was released December 7th, 2012, and featured “Unpredictable,” “Out of My Limit,” “Beside You,” and “Gotta Get Out”.

The band’s self-titled debut studio album was released June 27th, 2014. “She Looks So Perfect,” “Don’t Stop,” “Amnesia,” and “Good Girls” were released as singles, each earning a music video. “Beside You” was remastered and put on the album.
