There go the streetlights, the night's officially on
I got the green light to do whatever I want
I'm gonna stand outside the box and put the rules on hold

Tonight, carte blanche, 1st class for the evening
Ready, set, go!

All the girls stepping out for a public affair
All night, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop
All the cameras come out for a public affair
Who cares, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop

Hey, baby, I see you looking over here, baby
Are you gonna keep looking or get up and talk to me?
Here's an opportunity that you don't wanna miss

Tonight, carte blanche, 1st class for the evening
Ready, set, go!

All the girls stepping out for a public affair
All night, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop
All the cameras come out for a public affair
Who cares, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop

Do what you wanna do tonight
The world does not exist, no no no no
Move how you wanna move, all my girls work it out like this
Give me room to shake, shake, shake

All the girls stepping out for a public affair
All night, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop
All the cameras come out for a public affair
Who cares, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop

All the girls stepping out for a public affair
All night, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop
All the cameras come out for a public affair
Who cares, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop

All night, don't stop
Who cares, let's rock
All night, don't stop
Who cares, let's rock

All the girls stepping out for a public affair
All night, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop
All the cameras come out for a public affair
Who cares, let's rock, ?cause the party don't stop

    General Comment:i like jessica, but her new image is too skanky with the dressing and magazine covers. i'm glad she finally divorced nick lachey though.
    This is a song about partying, what else? lol

    General Comment:if any of you are saying jessica simpson is untalented, i should shoot you. YOU try and sing like her. even just a little! she is an amazing singer with a terrific vocal range. it`s not shown off in this particular song but that doesnt mean its not there.

    General Comment:This song is proof that Jessica used a bunch of her money to hire song and music writers in a last ditch attempt to save her no-talent shitstained name.

    General Comment:I LOVE this song so much, I have outplayed it. You see, I like songs, and I LOVE songs. The songs I love are ones with clever, catchy, original, and pretty good beats. Like America the 70's band had AWESOME music. I mean, I was born in the 90's, and I love lots of music. I just wish they would make songs with such good beats as America's today :)

    And I love this song because it's got a very nice beat. If I were still in school (Now I'm homeschooled) I would have already starting making a dance to this song for the Talent Show. This song ROCKS SOCKS!
