[Verse 1]
The great pretender never did explain
Always found a way to do her favorite thing
On the riviera, it was New Year's day
On the hotel floor, drinking warm champagne
Sweat and glitter, she's a dangerous place
[Pre-Chorus]
And I remember fuckin' in the falling rain
But I couldn't quit her
Said she couldn't wait
She always had her fangs at my jugular vein
[Chorus]
Guess I'm going to a party
On our possessed coast, oh, oh
Yes, I'm going on safari
For the great unknown, oh, oh
Yet I'm giving it up
Giving up the ghost
But I bet that girl
Ends up in my clothes
'Cause I'm going to a party
On our possessed coast, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Fled the feeling once I hit LA
Aching 'cause I ran from love like it was laced
In the house of mirrors, ain't nothing keep you safe
Something dire at the door wearing out your name
Well, that's the spirit, you're gonna bend until it breaks
[Pre-Chorus]
Disaster runs in tidal waves day after day
But for a minute
The love, it sure was great
She'll always have her fangs at my jugular vein
[Chorus]
Guess I'm going to a party
On our possessed coast, oh, oh
Yes, I'm going on safari
For the great unknown, oh, oh
Yet I'm giving it up
Giving up the ghost
But I bet that girl
Ends up in my clothes
'Cause I'm going to a party
On our possessed coast, oh, oh
[Bridge]
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
[Chorus]
Guess I'm going to a party
On our possessed coast, oh, oh
Yes, I'm going on safari
For the great unknown, oh, oh
Yet I'm giving it up
Giving up the ghost
But I bet that girl
Ends up in my clothes
'Cause I'm going to a party
On our possessed coast, oh, oh
