It's Not My Party

We drove away inside a three wheelers

Across the pavement that we called our turf

Blown by the wind across the cold hard earth

Like dirty leaves in an old parking berth

Mmmmm, mmmmm

We are grown up and that is good we're told

But when do grown-ups become just plain old

Left on the vine until the frost bites cold

Like broken flowers buried in the snow

Mmmmm, mmmmm

And if you want to throw a party,

I can cry tonight

You would cry too if it happened to you, right?

I keep falling in and out of love with you

I've never loved anyone the way

I do you Smiling politely almost all the time

Window reflections in the check out line

Born under punches and a real bad sign

Like two for one for just a dollar nine-nine

Mmmmm, mmmmm

And if you want to throw a party,

I can cry tonight

You would cry too if it happened to you, right?

I keep falling in and out of love with you

I've never loved anyone the way

I do you You

We're tense and nervous running at the mouth

Afraid of just what everyone is all about

But keep on keeping on to hide our doubt

And hold a candle when the lights go out

Mmmmm, mmmmm

And if you want to throw a party,

I can cry tonight

You would cry too if it happened to you, right?

I keep falling in and out of love with you

I've never loved anyone the way

I do you You

You You You
