Party Party

[Verse 1]

We're going to drink enough tonight to drown the average army

By New Year's Day the next door neighbour will be going barmy

The milkman arrives at midday with his usual wisecrack

Who knows a girl with Wednesday legs so when's they going to snap?

[Chorus]

Why does everybody have to be so hale and hearty

Can't they see we're trying to have a party, party, party, party

[Verse 2]

The last thing I remember I was talking to some fellas

Then she said she'd have a word for me with her good-looking mate

And handed me a pint-pot filled with Advocate and Tizer

And I woke in the flowerbeds of fear (beer?) and fertilizer

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

So shift yourself and shake your body

You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and Act of God

You got to learn from your mistakes

When you got a face like last week's Cornflakes

The doors and the window frames are by Pablo Picasso

The party decorations owned by Michelangelo

The fine music that you hear is by Stravinsky

With overall design by Leonardo da Vinci

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]

So shift yourself and shake your body

You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and Act of God

You got to learn from your mistakes

When you got a face like last week's Cornflakes

Two boys are upstairs in your bed

Three girls are downstairs crying

The Alka Seltzer in the glass is roaring like a lion

You think you've aged ten years tonight and still never been kissed

So you overdose on aftershave and try to slash your wrist

[Chorus]
