The Party Lyrics
You're like a party somebody threw me
You taste like birthday
You look like New Years
You're like a big parade through town
You leave such a mess but you're so fun
Tell all the neighbors to start knocking down walls
To grab their guitars and run out to the hall
And we're coming out right along to sing them my new song
For every place there is a bus
That'll take you where you must
Start counting all your money and friends before you come back again
For every road we can't retrace
For every memory we can't face
For every name that's been erased
Let's have another round
May I propose a little toast?
For all the ones who hurt the most
For all the friends that we have lost
Let's give them one more round of applause
But you're like a party somebody threw me
You taste like birthday
You look like New Year
You're like a big parade through town
That leaves such a mess but you're so fun
You taste like birthday
You look like New Years
You're like a big parade through town
You leave such a mess but you're so fun
To grab their guitars and run out to the hall
And we're coming out right along to sing them my new song
That'll take you where you must
Start counting all your money and friends before you come back again
For every memory we can't face
For every name that's been erased
Let's have another round
May I propose a little toast?
For all the ones who hurt the most
For all the friends that we have lost
But you're like a party somebody threw me
You taste like birthday
You look like New Year
You're like a big parade through town
That leaves such a mess but you're so fun

Just wanted to get in here before someone types "I can't believe no one has commented yet!" because I hate it when people say that. It's not THAT hard to believe no one's said anything about a song, people. Someone has to be the first commenter, and it's obviously you. But not now. I win this time.
This was the song that really stood out for me the first time I listened to her new album. It managed to excite me and it just made me feel so many things at once. It made me feel nostalgic...but to nothing at all really because I don't think it reminds me of anything in particular. To me this song is just about the human experience (very general I know). How our lives are marked by events and the people surrounding us and all the pain and joy they come with. The analogies are really clever, people as events... This next part I thought was really great:
For every road we can retrace For every memory we can't face For every name that's been erased... and so on.
So yeah, great song. Great album as well. Yay Regina.
