Dance Party


crawling into a skin I've already shed
this ain't my life/ I might as well be
dead was the way they found him
that little shit who used to live with me
and my dog were the best of friends
he got hit by a truck/ that's how the movie ends
always so much brighter than beginnings
it's always good to know it's over

come on/ oh hey hey hey hey
a dance party 'cross the USA
come on shake shake shake
we're gonna dance this night away

out in a fog so thick I couldn't see to tie my shoe
you stupid fly/ you don't know me and I can't stand the sight of you
when you ask me why I don't know what to tell you/ except maybe ze-
bras in Africa don't give a goddam about you or me

so come on/ oh hey hey hey hey
a dance party 'cross the USA
come on and go away
I've had enough of you to-

day is what we call the part that comes between two nights
in the ecstasy of abandonment and the eternal flight
from all that's wrong and I can have a living in my life
seems so damn long but you blink an eye
and then you're frowning at your fat old wife

come on oh hey hey hey
a dance party 'cross the USA
come on hey hey hey
we're gonna dance this night away
