1999

Prince

I was dreaming when I wrote this.
Forgive me if it goes astray.

But when I woke up this morning,
could have sworn it was judgement day.

The sky was all purple
there were people running everywhere.

Trying to run from the destruction.
You know I didn't even care.

'Cause they say two thousand zero zero
party over, oops, out of time.

So tonight I'm gonna party
like it's Nineteen Ninety Nine.

I was dreaming when I wrote this,
so sue me if I go too fast.

But life is just a party
and parties weren't meant to last.

War is all around us,
my mind says prepare to fight.

So if I gotta die,
I'm gonna listen to my body tonight.

Yeah they say two thousand zero zero
party over, oops, out of time.

So tonight I'm gonna party
like it's Nineteen Ninety Nine.
Yeah yeah.

Lemme tell ya somethin'
If you didn't come to party,
don't bother knocking' on my door.

I got a lion in my pocket,
and baby he's ready to roar.

Year, everybody's got a bomb.
we could all die any day.

But before I'll let it happen,
I'll dance my life away.

Yeah they say two thousand zero zero
party over, oops, out of time.

So tonight I'm gonna party
like it's Nineteen Ninety Nine.

Say it one more time.
Two thousand zero zero
party over, oops, out of time.

So tonight I'm gonna party
like it's Nineteen Ninety Nine.
Nineteen Ninety Nine.

Everybody say PARTY!
C'mon now, you say PARTY!
That's right, everybody say PARTY!

Two thousand zero zero
party over, oops, out of time.

So tonight I'm gonna party
like it's Nineteen Ninety Nine.
Nineteen Ninety Nine.

Nineteen Ninety Nine.
