Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I went to a party
It was jumping and I went for it hearty
I had on my bad suit
Started jigging to the one with the jazz flute
[Verse 2]
I told myself I wouldn't stay late
Just put my face 'round the door
Next time I looked it was coming on quarter to 4
And my feet were getting sore
[Verse 3]
I went to a party
It was like an indoor safari
'Round a waterhole of Campari
And I feel alright
Whoa, yes, I feel alright now
[Verse 4]
I went to a party
I was circulating 'round pretty smartly
You could say it was high-tone
But I was representing the low zone
Yes, I was
[Verse 5]
A man came up
Said, "I've got all your stuff
It's just sublime
But for me your best is Propeller Time"
I said, "Where do I sign?"
[Chorus]
I went to a party
I went to a party
I went to a party
[Verse 6]
Out of the blue they started to play the DJ's new idea
A voice in my head said
Maybe it's time to get out of here
It's very clear
It's been fun, but it's time to cut along
[Outro]
I went to a party
Yeah
I went to a party
Yeah, yeah
I went to a party
Yeah
I went to a party
