The Party

Regina Spektor · What We Saw From The Cheap Seats (Deluxe Version) [2012]

You're like a party somebody threw me

You taste like birthday

You look like New Year

You're like a big parade through town

You leave such a mess but you're so fun



Tell all the neighbors to start knocking down walls

To grab their guitars and run out to the halls

And we'll be coming out right along to sing them my new song



For every place there is a bus

That'll take you where you must

Start counting all your money and friends before you come back again



For every road we can't retrace

For every memory we can't face

For every name that's been erased

Let's have another round



May I propose a little toast?

For all the ones who hurt the most

For all the friends that we have lost

Let's give them one more round of applause



But you're like a party somebody threw me

You taste like birthday

You look like New Year

You're like a big parade through town

You leave such a mess but you're so fun
