Dinner Party

Somebody right above me gets up from her chair

The ceiling shakes when he makes his way down the stairs

The lights go out, put a finger to your mouth

There is nothing we can get away within this house

Would be so hard

Would break your heart

Would waste of time

I know it's a diamond mine

All our friends are doing fine

And there's a dinner party right across the hall

And I hear neighbors laughing through the kitchen wall

And I hear the sound of a plate crash to the ground

When I turn the table on its side it'll shake the house

Would be so hard

Would break your heart

Would waste your time

I know it's a diamond mine

All our friends are doing fine

So I won't ask again

Somebody might bemoan me, screaming in these rooms

You keep your mouth shut if you know what is good for you

The lights go out, I can hear bad things around

There is nothing we can get away within this house

Would be so hard

Will break your heart

Will waste your time

I know it's a diamond mine

All our friends are doing fine

So I won't ask again
