Your Party
Ween · La Cucaracha [2007]
There were candy and spices and tricolored pastas
The meat carved was drawn from succulent juices
Served on platters of the purest gold
I was calm when we arrived at the party
I spoke with fervor, embracing the evening
My wife leaned over and she whispered 'I love you'
I held her close - we danced
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
Creampuffs and bourbon and the music was louder
My wife was competing in a game of chance
The party raged and the guests were screaming
I could have danced all night
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
Later on when we were under the covers
I closed my eyes, then I drifted to sleep
I dreamt about me maybe throwing a party
And just how great that would be
And we said
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
