The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All right, sorry we're late
But here we are, for one night only!
Live on stage ?out on video?
[JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party]
All we need is a beatbox for people who only need a beat
You may want to hear some scratching just to hear a DJ scratch
Got to have some House so let the master play his tune
? or maybe 'this is the beat' ?
Stop playing trumpet
Did you hear what I ?meant?
[Mu! Mu!] build a fire
[Mu! Mu!] stoke it good
[Mu! Mu!] throw them on
[Mu! Mu!] and watch the bastards burn
[JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party]
Burn the bastards
all right then
take me to the bells
just take me to the bells
I wanna hear the bells
[Mu! Mu!] Five to twelve
[Mu! Mu!] almost gone
[Mu! Mu!] 1987
[Mu! Mu!] what the fuck have we done?
[JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party]
Alright, let's groove!
[JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party]
Oh play that beat
[JAMS have a party
JAMS have a party]
{And a very happy new year, from BBC1}
Hey Rockman, this party's crap
Do you know any others?
Yeah? Well let's get there before the booze runs out and the ----cks
have gone.
Ha! that's what they thought until I came along an put 'em straight!
Me? I'm Ford Timelord, and the only party worth going to is... Is the one
to celebrate your own number one hit single. Course, I had to arrange a
few things first, like this....
