This Party Sucks

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.

In case you were wondering

I can't get comfortable in my own skin

But it was bound to happen

In case you were wondering

I'm twenty three and avoiding the bar scene

Lycra pants, and designer jeans

In case you were wondering

I'm staying in

I won't smell like cheap perfume or cigarettes tonight

And every word that I said got drowned out

by a dance remix of a pop song I don't care about

In case you forgot how bad I've been down

just ask around 'cause you know this town loves to run its mouth

Say, say you'll stay in with me today

Say, say you'll stay

'Cause you won't find me on the north Jersey club scene

With the Girls Gone Wild B-team

I don't need to pump my fist to look sweet

In case you were wondering

I promised myself that I would try to be more social at parties

Can someone tell these kids liking the rain no longer counts as an idiosyncrasy

In fact, I think that Rupert Holmes wrote a song about it in the '70s

And consequently, he also saved the Pina Colada industry

Say, say you'll stay in with me today

Say, say you'll stay

'Cause you won't find me on the north Jersey club scene

With the Girls Gone Wild B-team

I don't need to pump my fist to look sweet

Say, say, say, say you'll stay

Say, say, say, say you'll stay

I can't believe I ended up here again

watching this terrible band play songs I hate in the basement

I can't believe that I got stuck here again

while the kid with the dreads tells me he's smarter on acid

I can't believe that I'm not running away so just say
