Lyrics
Killer Parties
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.
if they ask about charlemagne
be polite and say something vague
like another lover lost to the restaurant raids
if they ask why we left in the first place
say we were young and we were so in love
i guess we just needed space
we heard about this place they called the united states
we found out virginia really is for the lovers
philly is full of friendly friends that will love you like a brother
pensacola parties hard with poppers pills and pepsi
ybor city is tres speedy but they throw such killer parties
killer parties almost killed me
if she says we partied then i'm pretty sure we partied
i really don't remember
i remember we departed from our bodies
we woke up in ybor city
