Well you spent the whole day
With your axe to the wheel
Read the late paper
It was full of bad news
Excuse me but I think
What I'm saying is true
You've got to find some time
And devote it to you
So come on down
To the party
Callin' all nations
To put it on the line
Come on down
To the party
Callin' all nations
To put it on the line
So come on all you people
With the stars in your hair
You know what's going on
There's no need to despair
Take the chains from you mind
Take the chains from your feet
And do the sex dance
Cos' it's necessary
You don't have to be rich
You don't have to be famous
No you just
Gotta have
A little bit of patience
Jump into your old car
Or take a cab train or boat
The only thing that matters
Is that ya really gotta go
So come on down
To the party
Callin' all nations
To put it on the line
Come on down
To the party
Callin' all nations
To put it on the line
Well you spent the whole day
With your axe to the wheel
Read the late paper
It was full of bad news
Excuse me but I think
What I'm saying is true
You've got to find some time
And devote it to you
So come on down
To the party
Callin' all nations
To put it on the line
Come on down
To the party
Callin' all nations
To put it on the line
Callin' all nations
Callin' all nations
Callin' all nations
Callin' all nations
Callin' all nations
Put it on the line
Callin' all nations
Put it on the line
Callin' all nations
Put it on the line
Callin' all nations
Put it on the line
