Party Pit

i guess i met her at the party pit
she said those kids she's with were sellin' it
and so we sailed off on some separate trips
and she got pinned down at the party pit
i went away to school that fall
she stuck around with all those stick-pin dolls
sped through the scene until the engine stalled
some suburban shopping mall
sailed away on separate trips
and she got pinned down at the party pit
sailed away on such separate trips
and she got pinned down at the party pit
i came back to start a band, of course
i saw her walking through the crystal court
she made a scene by the revolving doors
she's gonna walk around and drink some more
so i walked across that grain bell bridge
in a brand new minneapolis
she said "i think of all those things I did
with just momentum from the party pit"
sailed away on separate trips
and she got pinned down at the party pit
sailed away on such separate trips
and she got pinned down at the party pit
sailed away on such separate trips
and she got pinned down at the party pit
sailed away on such separate trips
and she got pinned down and I'm pretty sure we kissed
and i'm pretty sure we kissed
gonna walk around and drink some more
gonna walk around, gonna walk around, gonna walk around and drink some more
