It's Not My Party
We drove away inside a three wheelers
Across the pavement that we called our turf
Blown by the wind across the cold hard earth
Like dirty leaves in an ???
mmmmm, mmmmm
We are grown up and that is good we're told
But when do grown ups become just plain old
Left on the vine until the frost bites cold
Like broken flowers buried in the snow
mmmmm, mmmmm
And if you want to throw a party I can cry tonight
You would cry to if it happened to you right?
I keep falling in and out of love with you
I've never loved anyone the way I do you
Smiling politely almost all the time
With no reflections in the check out line
Born under punches and a real bad sign
Like two for one for just a dollar nine-nine
mmmmm, mmmmm
And if you want to throw a party I can cry tonight
You would cry to if it happened to you right?
I keep falling in and out of love with you
I've never loved anyone the way I do you
You
We're tense and nervous running at the mouth
Afraid of just what everyone is all about
But keep on keeping on to hide our doubt
And hold a candle when the lights go out
mmmmm, mmmmm
And if you want to throw a party I can cry tonight
You would cry to if it happened to you right?
I keep falling in and out of love with you
I've never loved anyone the way I do you
You
You
You
You
