lyrics

I don’t know what I’m supposed to be
A firecracker or a character in history
I’m here for the party oh sleeping all day
Dropping out like a vampire in the sun decay
I don’t know what I’m gonna do
Am I part of a hurricane or in the wake of something new
I’m here for the party oh I’m staying all night
Snorting like a warthog running till we’re out of sight
Lighting the fuse no more sitting on the shelf
Counting to two, babe I’m gonna need your help
I don’t know where I’m supposed to go
Come home darling let’s take it nice and slow
I’m here for the party, oh, sleeping sideways
Gonna burn like a mad man in a fiery blaze
Lighting the fuse no more sitting on the shelf
Counting to two, baby gonna need your help…
Who’s got a wave to ride who’s got a garden I can walk in?
Who’s gonna step inside and hear the shit that I’ve been talking?
Give me all your truth and knowledge
Working on my brain just like I went to college
