[Verse 1]
Yeah i was sitting in my room all alone cause the innocence is gone
And i smashed the only radio because it never played any songs
I was tired of working hard for other people's dreams to come true
So i smoked my last cigarette and headed out into the night
Yeah the last hot

[Chorus]
The last hot night, the last hot night in america
It's the last hot night, the last hot night in the world
It's the last hot night, the last hot night in america
And i'm looking for you
Yeah, i'm looking for you

[Verse 2]
Yeah, the future's full of lovers and intentions, anger and lust
And i dialed the only number, the only number i knew i could trust
And if it's coming to an end, you know i'm gonna feel alive one last time
And if i don't hear from you, you know i'm gonna keep looking all night
Yeah the last hot

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You're the only thing, the only thing good inside my soul
And i'm gonna take a chance on the edge cause i'm losing control
Of everything i know

[Outro]
The silence broke when i saw your face again
Crash of life came rushing through my veins
Yeahhhhhh
It's the last hot night, the last hot night in america
It's the last hot night, the last hot night in the world
It's the last hot night, the last hot night in america
And i'm looking for you
Yeah, i'm looking for you
Looking for you
Yeah, i'm looking for you
It's the last hot night in america

The Goo Goo Dolls are an American rock band formed in 1986 in Buffalo, NY, during one of Buffalo’s most prolific underground music phases. The band was formed by John Rzeznik (Also known as Johnny Rzeznik), lead singer and songwriter for the band, with bassist/vocalist Robby Takac, and drummer George Tutuska. Mike Malinin later replaced Tutuska as the band’s drummer.

The band has released twelve studio albums between 1986 and 2017, but they are best known for platinum-selling A Boy Named Goo (1995) and Dizzy Up the Girl (1998). These mid- to late 1990s albums contain the Goo Goo Dolls' biggest hits to date – Name and Iris most notably, but also Slide, Black Balloon, and Dizzy

These hits made the Goo Goo Dolls a household name for radio-friendly “prom night power balladry” (as one Rolling Stone review put it), but the band’s early output was often far rougher musically, melding the band’s edgier punk influences with an often soft sensibility in the mold of the band’s early heroes, The Replacements. One can hear these influences on many songs on A Boy Named Goo though these affinities would fade after Dizzy Up the Girl.
