One Hell of a Party Lyrics
Please do not follow where I am leading
Someone must clear these things away
Here in the burnt-out husk of the morning
Strung out with nothing left to say
This was one hell of a party
Nobody ever got to bed
But this morning after's killing me
And I have to rest my head
And just where were we trying to get to?
I can't recall one single word
The faces that pushed themselves before you
Congeal into one — nothing transferred
But this was one hell of a party
And it's still living in my head
But the morning after shines so cold
So I'll follow where I'm led
Yeah, this was one hell of a party
Nobody ever got to bed
But let's face it now; it's over
And this morning after's killing me
And I have to rest my head
I have to rest my head
Someone must clear these things away
Here in the burnt-out husk of the morning
Strung out with nothing left to say
Nobody ever got to bed
But this morning after's killing me
And I have to rest my head
I can't recall one single word
The faces that pushed themselves before you
Congeal into one — nothing transferred
And it's still living in my head
But the morning after shines so cold
So I'll follow where I'm led
Nobody ever got to bed
But let's face it now; it's over
And this morning after's killing me
And I have to rest my head

Jarvis Cocker gives a good dramatic sound.
Describes me cleaning up the aftermath of my relationship with my abusive ex husband. It was one hell of a party and the morning after is killing me. Glad I left though.
