Politics and Party Tricks

It’s the right situation and I’m a well-adjusted guy

I walk into the room and I’m on

I sneak outside and light a spliff and then it hits me

Are they talking about me while I'm gone?

I don’t remember who I met or who I drank with

I’m so preoccupied with how I appear

I can’t be anywhere without being somewhere else

So I always miss what's happening here

Politics and party tricks

I’m guessing who they want me to be

All I'm ever thinking ‘bout

Is what everybody's thinking of me

(Nobody’s thinking of me)

I’m here I’m stoned I’m halfway home

But would they invite me back if I leave

All I'm ever thinking ‘bout

Is what everybody's thinking of me

Nobody’s thinking of me

Woo hoo, ooh

Woo hoo, ooh

Woo hoo, ooh

I hate charades I hate myself

I hate when movies take forever and then someone ruins the end

I hate the beach I hate when someone’s mad at me

And most of all I’m scared I might hate my friends

Cuz they look awfully nonchalant mid conversation

When it pauses and I got nothing to say

I take a breath and make a joke at my expense

And if they laugh, I’m probably doing okay

Politics and party tricks

I’m guessing who they want me to be

All I'm ever thinking ‘bout

Is what everybody's thinking of me

(Nobody’s thinking of me)

I’m here I’m stoned I’m halfway home

But would they invite me back if I leave

All I'm ever thinking ‘bout

Is what everybody's thinking of me

Nobody’s thinking of me
