(+) The Party Line
How did I get here? I heard a rumour
From your girlfriend’s sister that you knew me
And you end up dancing closer to me
I know that I broke the rule already
She asks me if I’m single going steady
I just drop my head and took a step off into the dark
Standing on the black and white tiles
(Don’t dance on the lines cos the bears
eat the pretty ones)
We are like the islands, divided
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is no body here but your body near
Jump to the beat of a party line
Stay, you stay
I am on this morning quite distracted
The tug of war begins on our emotions
I am leaving many people feeling worse than before
People like to drive their cars and smoke up
People like to sit inside and toke up
People like to shoot at things
With borrowed guns and knives
I am happy to look and run
(Where were you when I was king
in this part of town?)
Now the days of glory are gone
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is no body here but your body, dear
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is no body here but your body, dear
Nobody here but your body, dear
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is no body here but your body, dear
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is no body here but your body, dear
Nobody here but your body, dear
