It's time to party
But I think I'd rather die
We are silent in the sitting room
And she's started to cry
The finger food is all laid out
Balloons are on display
The doorbell rings, I look at her
She looks the other way.
Hide the Barney
It's a time to be charming
Open up the door
Surprise, they are the size of an army
Cans and wine and Bacardi, tonnes of spliff too
The party, the party must continue
So now we've to fake it, we've to fake it
I'm so infuriated you could make it
The party, the party must continue
Continue, continue
Oh, I'm disgusted we invited Dick and Jane
She's an absolute disaster and he's so dull it's insane
Hide the mushrooms from him or he'll wreck the bosom
And imagine meeting Nigel Mansell off your head on drugs
Who are these people anyway,
Friends of friends of friends I'd say
I look across, I know she's heard,
It's meant to be her special day
I wish they'd leave, we could talk this thing through,
The party, the party must continue
I'm just not into humor, into humor
They're ashing on the carpet
And there's puke on my computer
But this party, this party will continue
Continue, Continue
Please oh please, not my good LPs,
Would you put them back in sleeves
And your [?] can't be troubled on the photo,
Put it back on the mantle piece
We had taken that in Greece
And it was baking at the beach
Would you get down, get down off the roof,
And please don't dance on Steve
Knocking
"I'll get it. Yeah?"
"What's going on in here?
I've had had complaints from every room in the house"
Bum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum
Ba, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum
Bum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum
Ba, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum, ba dum
They finally begin to go
In dribs and drabs at intervals
The gang from work are Paddy lads,
They spill into the winter cold
I shut the door, feel a little ill too,
Continue, continue
I go into the sitting room and sit there
She's curled up like a kitten in the big chair
I know she's not asleep by how her eyelids move
Continue, continue
Then she open ups her eyes again and they are locked on mine
I learned a couple things by now and studied lots of signs
That look I know it very well, it's "Let's lay down our guns"
She's looking quite attractive in that dressing gown from Dunnes
We laugh at the ordeal we've just been through
She pats the chair and beckons and the world seems very simple
In fact I think this party may continue,
Continue, continue
