[Verse 1]
Well, gather round I'll tell you all a story
About heartache and woe
Well, he's always going on
About who he knows
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause we are all just drowning, man
I think your politics stink
And we are all just burning, man
Somebody buy me a drink
I think that I'm gonna get high
[Chorus]
Because we all want to party when a funeral ends
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been ten bitter years since I've been seeing your face
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
You shared half the tears and I been dead in this place
[Verse 2]
Well, get someone's a**istance to get downtown
You might get someone you know
Well she's always going on about the town you grew up in
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause we are all just drowning, man
I think your politics stink
And we are all just burning, man
Somebody buy me a drink
I think I'd die for it!
[Chorus]
Because we all want to party when a funeral ends
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been eight f**ing years since I've been seeing your face
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place
[Bridge]
You'll never take me alone, you'll never take me back home
I never want to go home with you, and still
You'll never get me alone, you'll never get me back home
I never want to go home with you, and still
You'll never get me alone, you'll never get me back home
You'll never grab me alive, right here, in this f**ing place
I never want to go home
I never want to go home
I never want to leave
[Chorus]
Because we all want to party when a funeral ends
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been eight f**ing years since I've been seeing your
Face 'round here
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And you're walking away, and I will drown in the tears
