There's a party tonight
And I think that I might not be goin'
But I hate puttin' fights up with people that I love
And want to be there
So I call up a best friend
He's got an ex probably going
If I know him at all
Then he probably won't want to see her
He says the words I want to hear–
I don't want to go either
Everyone's drinking and singing along
We would stand next to the speaker
You know I pray that you'll say what I want–
Tell me you don't want to go either
Blowin' smoke
You got a lighter, I don't
TV's on
But nobody's watching
Everyone's drinking and singing along
Stayin' at home would be cheaper
You know I'm prayin' you'll say what I want–
Tell me you don't want to go either
So let's say that I have
A momentary lapse in judgment
Drink everything that I'm handed
And the chances rise
And I almost forget the lights that I left on
Dog that I don't own
Somebody says that they're going to bed
Have fun at the next one
Think I want to be her
I don't want to go either
Everyone's drinking and singing along
We would stand next to the speaker
You know I'm prayin' you'll say what I want–
Tell me you don't want to go either
Run and go
Nobody here I know
On their phones
Nobody's talking
Everyone's drinking and singing along
Stayin' at home would be cheaper
You know I'm praying you'll say what I want–
Tell me you don't want to go
What if I miss out? (I don't want to know)
What if I regret this? (I don't think so)
What if everybody really wants me there? (What if I don't care?)
What if I miss out? (I don't want to know)
What if it's the one time it's actually fun, though?
What if the love of my life is there?
Blowin' smoke
You got a lighter, I don't
TV's on
But nobody's watching
Everyone's drinking and singing along
Stayin' at home would be cheaper
You know I'm praying you'll say what I want–
Tell me you don't want to go either
