[Verse 1]
Elderflower cordial on my sleeve
And I'm worrying about what setting to wash it off on
It makes my hands feel dry in the cold
But I don't want no gloves to put on
[Verse 2]
Oh, it brings me down
Makes me shrivel and die
Of course not literally
'Cause I'm still with you guys
But it makes my throat coarse
That's minus the tie
Of the mourning suit i dressed in
It matches the sky
[Chorus]
I'm not havin' a party
The noise is too loud
And the booze isn't here
And the leaves are too brown
I'm falling in love
But it was with the wrong man
And I know he's not the one
Still I'm holding his hand
[Verse 3]
Oh, dinner's ready but I'm not in the mood
Oh, gimmе half a second to get in it
It makes my consciеnce feel so full of guilt
And I'm wondering what it is that makes me feel so shit
[Verse 4]
It brings me down
Makes me shrivel and die
Of course not literally
'Cause I'm still with you guys
But it makes my throat coarse
That's minus the tie
Of the mourning suit i dressed in
It matches the sky
[Chorus]
I'm not havin' a party
The noise is too loud
And the booze isn't here
And the leaves are too brown
I'm falling in love
But it was with the wrong man
And I know he's not the one
Still I'm holding his hand
[Bridge]
It would be okay
If for just one day
They would stop the world
And the wars
And the noise
And the man that's making me cringe
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not havin' a party
The noise is too loud
And the booze isn't here
And the leaves are too brown
I'm falling in love
But it was with the wrong man
And I know he's not the one
Still I'm holding his hand
