[Intro]
Excited, excited
Excited, excited, excited, excited
Excited, excited, excited, excited
I get excited
I get excited

[Verse 1]
We're both in the gutter, that's no surprise
What does it matter, when I look in your eyes?
We've lost all our money, we're thrown out of bars
We're lying in the gutter, but we're looking at the stars

[Chorus]
I get excited, you get excited too
(Excited, I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too
(Excited, I get excited)

[Verse 2]
I hear the sound of the subway, the sigh of the heat
The click of the visitors' heels on the street
The rattle of the taxi, the scream of the cars
The clatter of the dustbin and the beat of my heart

[Chorus]
I get excited, you get excited too
(Excited, I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too
(Excited, I get excited)

[Chorus]
I don't know why, I don't know why
(I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why
(Excited, excited, excited, excited)
(Excited, excited, excited, excited)

[Bridge]
You're in my soul
My body moves to your control
Baby, I've been thinking about you
All night long, and the neighbours are talking

[Chorus]
I don't know why, I don't know why
(Excited, I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why
(Excited, I get excited)

[Verse 3]
We're both in the gutter, that's no surprise
What does it matter, when I look in your eyes?
We've lost all our money, we're thrown out of bars
We're lying in the gutter, but we're looking at the stars

[Chorus]
I get excited, you get excited too
(Excited, I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too
(Excited, I get excited)

[Chorus]
I don't know why, I don't know why
(I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why
(Excited, excited, excited, excited)
(Excited, excited, excited, excited)

[Interlude: Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I get excited, you get excited too
(Excited, I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too
(Excited, I get excited)

[Chorus]
I don't know why, I don't know why
(I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why
(I get excited)
