Last night she said
"Oh, baby, I feel so down"
"Oh, it turn' me off when I feel left out"
So I, I turned 'round
Oh, baby, don't care no more
I know this for sure, I'm walking out that door

Well, I've been in town for just about fifteen, oh, minutes now
Oh baby, I feel so down, and I don't know why
I keep walking for miles

And see, people, they don't understand
Your girlfriends, they can't understand
Your grandsons, they won't understand
On top of this, I ain't ever gonna understand

Last night she said
"Oh, baby, don't feel so down"
"Oh, it turn' me off when I feel left out"
So I, I turned 'round
Oh, baby, gonna be alright
It was a great big lie, 'cause I left that night, yeah

Oh, people, they don't understand
No, girlfriends, they don't understand
In spaceships, they won't understand
And me, I ain't ever gonna understand

Last night she said
"Oh, baby, I feel so down"
"See, it turn' me off when I feel left out"
So I, I turned 'round
Oh, little girl, I don't care no more
I know this for sure, I'm walking out that door, yeah

About This Song

"Last Night" by The Strokes captures the restless energy of urban nightlife through Julian Casablancas' detached vocals and the band's signature garage rock sound. The song explores themes of alienation, fleeting connections, and the search for meaning in modern city life. With its driving rhythm and raw guitar work, it exemplifies the band's role in revitalizing rock music in the early 2000s. The track became a defining anthem of indie rock's mainstream breakthrough.
