This is the place for celebrating
This is the crowd that's fascinating
This is the time for concentrating
To hear some words worth translating
He's rapping 'bout his meditating
She's dying for some medicating
And though I shouldn't be complaining
What's lacking here is entertaining
[Chorus]
We're all looking for a good time
But what we get is empty rhyme
When everything's right but nothing's fine
It's everything but partytime
Talk about decorating
A room that needs sophisticating
When coversations become straining
No one's good at interest feigning
[Chorus]
This is the crowd that's fascinating
This is the time for concentrating
To hear some words worth translating
He's rapping 'bout his meditating
She's dying for some medicating
And though I shouldn't be complaining
What's lacking here is entertaining
[Chorus]
We're all looking for a good time
But what we get is empty rhyme
When everything's right but nothing's fine
It's everything but partytime
Talk about decorating
A room that needs sophisticating
When coversations become straining
No one's good at interest feigning
[Chorus]

"We're all looking for a good time" - The Go Go's were enjoying their popularity, and understand that she wants to enjoy herself
"But what we get is empty rhyme" - Belinda is showing up for shows and rehearsals with less than full enthusiasm (the lyrics she was singing - the "rhyme" - were lacking emotion and investment)
"When everything's right but nothing's fine" - The band's career is going great, but internally, they're unahppy with the way things are going between them
"It's everything but partytime" - They want Belinda to stop partying and get serious about the band again
