Party Boy
Alanis Morissette · Alanis [1991]
You're love ain't enough
Ow!
You're just a party, party, party boy, yeah
Oh, baby
You're just a party, party, party, boy!
From the moment I walked in your life
I knew right then, it was a serious thing for you
I got a kick out of your party friends
After a while I found a holiday overdue
Ohh, completely away from you
Oh, baby, your love ain't enough
Ow!
Party boy, you're just a party boy
Ain't no time for sleepin' 'cause you're misbehavin'
Party boy, you're just a party boy
Wake up soon and open your eyes
The time has come to see the light.
It took me long enough to realize
That all you give me is a really big broken heart
And I remember how we used to be
There was a time when we could never be torn apart
And now I wish that we could make a start
You know I gave you all my love
Ow!
Party boy, you're just a party boy
Ain't no time for sleepin' 'cause you're misbehavin'
Party boy, you're just a party boy
Wake up soon and open your eyes
The time has come to see the light.
This world of yours, turning upside down
Goin' up and down like a merry-go-round
A rumor goin' on right across the town
Why can't you see it?
I gave you love like you never knew
And you're givin' me nothing but an attitude
And now I'm gonna give a bit of solitude
I'll miss you, baby...
Misbehavin'.
Now I'll mis ya.
Ow!
You're just a party, party, party boy
Yeah
Oh, baby
You're just a party, party, party boy!
I've got to say to you, so you listen
Hey, boy, good bye!
Party boy, you're just a party boy
Ain't no time for sleepin' 'cause you're misbehavin'
Party boy, you're just a party boy
Wake up soon and open your eyes
The time has come to see the light.
You're just a party boy
Ain't no time for sleepin' 'cause you're misbehavin'
You're just a party boy
Wake up soon and open your eyes
The time has come to see the light.
You're just a party, party, party boy, yeah
