Prince - Nineteen-Ninty-Nine lyrics

[Intro] Don't worry, I won't hurt you... I only want you to have some fun [Verse 1] I was dreamin' when I wrote this Forgive me if it goes astray But when I woke up this morning I could have sworn it was judgment day The sky was all purple There was folks runnin' everywhere And people was running around And I didn't even care [Hook] 'Cuz they say... 2000 zero zero party over oops Out of time But tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999 [Verse 2] I was dreamin' 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 And my mind says prepare to fight So if I gotta die I'm gonna listen to my body tonight [Hook] 'Cuz they say... 2000 zero zero party over oops Out of time Well, tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999 [Verse 3] Now, lemme tell ya somethin' If you didn't come to party Then, don't bother knockin' on my door I got a lion in my pocket And baby he's ready to roar Everybody's got a bomb We could just die any day But before I'll let that happen I'll just dance my life away [Hook] 'Cuz they say... 2000 zero zero party over oops Out of time Well, tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999 2000 zero zero party over oops Out of time Well, tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999 Alright, it's 1999 You say it, 1999 Go on, say it, 1999 1999 don't stop, don't stop, say it one more time 2000 zero zero 1999
