Last Days of Disco

Yo La Tengo · And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out [2000]

Saw you at a party

You asked me to dance

Said music was great for dancing

I don't really dance much

But this time I did

And I was glad that I did this time



And the song said "Let's be happy"

I was happy

It never made me happy before

And the song said "Don't be lonely"

It makes me lonely

I hear it and I'm lonely more and more



Where I belong, where I belong



I wasn't dressed right, I rarely am

You told me that you didn't care

I laughed as you wobbled in your platform shoes

You laughed when I called Andrea true Anita Ward



And the song said "Let's be happy"

I was happy

It never made me happy before

And the song said "Don't be lonely"

It makes me lonely

I hear it and I'm lonely more and more



Where I belong, where I belong



And the song said "Let's be happy"

I was happy

It never made me happy before

It asked "Do you remember?"

And I remember, remember like it wasn't long ago

And the song said "Don't be lonely"

It makes me lonely

I hear it and I'm lonely more and more



Where I belong, where I belong
