[00:19.37] |
When he turned 34 but who's counting |
[00:23.96] |
He couldn't find anyone who wanted to party |
[00:27.61] |
So he walked around a playground with a bag of Mickey's Tallboys |
[00:32.39] |
And he heard the sound of laughter and he followed it for fifteen blocks |
[00:38.07] |
There was a house between Mavis and Water |
[00:41.76] |
They were out on the porch, they were inside playing quarters |
[00:46.35] |
And he said, "Don't you know the game Kazaam? It's a better game, |
[00:51.33] |
You point your elbow at someone and say somebody else's name |
[00:56.01] |
And it alternates whose turn it is and if you lose you drink." |
[01:00.40] |
They said "Man, you really make us think, |
[01:03.79] |
yeah you make us think and so: |
[01:06.08] |
Tonight we're gonna be the party |
[01:10.98] |
We will party all night long |
[01:15.56] |
We are the party generation |
[01:19.05] |
So have a seat, what's in the bag? |
[01:21.24] |
Party on." |
[01:23.24] |
|
[01:25.03] |
Round about one or two it started winding down |
[01:29.32] |
And he knew what they needed -- they needed donuts |
[01:33.40] |
So they walked out to Krispy Kruller's All Nite Sugar Palace |
[01:38.19] |
It was there at the doorway he said, "Oh, well maybe not." |
[01:43.67] |
Inside there were six women talking |
[01:47.75] |
They were the most justified angry ex-girlfriends |
[01:52.44] |
And they swivelled around slowly like they saw something bad |
[01:56.92] |
Through the eyes in the back of their heads |
[02:00.01] |
Like he always knew they had |
[02:01.91] |
And they said, "What a coincidence," and "Hey, you're just the man, |
[02:06.29] |
We were saying that you did the best you could |
[02:09.58] |
You're fine, we understand and so-- |
[02:12.08] |
Tonight we're gonna be the party |
[02:16.86] |
We will party all night long |
[02:21.55] |
We are the party generation |
[02:24.74] |
You were the best but we'll survive |
[02:27.43] |
Party on." |
[02:28.86] |
Yeah yeah yeah yeah |
[02:33.44] |
Oh yeah yeah yeah |
[02:38.23] |
Oh oh oh |
[02:42.32] |
|
[03:05.29] |
In the morning they sent him home with a designated driver |
[03:10.07] |
And he lay down and thought about the whole night |
[03:14.66] |
And he looked up at the photo that he'd got at a junk shop |
[03:19.54] |
It was only fifty cents but he framed it and everything |
[03:25.02] |
It was the kind of party that you hope never ends |
[03:29.71] |
The lucky party boy surrounded by his friends |
[03:33.50] |
And they were all in pointed hats |
[03:36.19] |
Caught in a rebel birthday shout |
[03:38.68] |
And he was at the candles with his mom there to help him out |
[03:43.86] |
There was a lot that you could learn if you lay near them |
[03:47.75] |
Like if you listened you could hear them and he could hear them |
[03:52.04] |
They say: |
[03:53.03] |
Tonight we're gonna be the party |
[03:58.02] |
We will party all night long |
[04:02.40] |
We are the party generation |
[04:05.99] |
So lift your head lift your head |
[04:08.66] |
Party on |
[04:09.90] |
Tonight we're gonna be the party |
[04:14.79] |
We will party all night long |
[04:19.18] |
We are the party generation |
[04:22.67] |
So lift your head and blow 'em out |
[04:25.04] |
Yeah |
[04:26.04] |
Yeah yeah yeah yeah |
[04:31.03] |
Oh yeah yeah yeah |
[04:35.81] |
Oh oh oh |
[04:42.87] |
Tonight we're gonna be the party |
[04:47.65] |
We will party all night long |
[04:52.14] |
We are the party generation |
[04:55.63] |
So lift your head and blow 'em out |
[04:58.12] |
Party on |
