24 Hour Party People - Happy Mondays
Twenty four hour party people
plastic face 'can't' smile the white out
With the twenty four hour party people
plastic face 'can't' smile the white out
Get This Party Started - Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan
Get this party started on a Saturday night
Everbody's waiting for me to arrive
Sending out the message to all of my friends
We'll be looking flashy in my Mercedes Benz
I got lots of style check my gold diamond rings
I can go for miles if you know what I mean
I'm coming up so you better get this party started
I'm coming up I'm comin
I'm coming up so you better get this party started

Pulp: Party Hard
I used to try very hard to make friends with everyone on the planet.
I've seen you havin' it, havin' it yeah
but now you've just had it.
Entertainment can sometimes be hard when the thing
that you love is the same thing that's holding you down.
This man is dangerous, he just shed his load on your best party frock.
Before you enter the palace of wisdom you have to decide:
are you ready to rock?
Oh can you party with me?
Can you show me a good time?
Do you even know what one looks like? |

(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party) - Beastie Boys
You wake up late for school - man you don't wanna go
You ask you mom, "Please?" - but she still says, "No!"
You missed two classes - and no homework
But your teacher preaches class like you're some kind of jerk
You gotta fight for your right to party
Party for Your Right to Fight - Public Enemy (see what I did there)
Power equality
And we're out to get it
I know some of you ain't wid it
This party started right in 66
With a pro Black radical mix
Then at the hour of twelve
Some force cut the power
And emerged from hell
It was your so called government
That made this occur
Like the grafted devils they were
Yeah y'all Party for your right to Fight.

It's My Party Lesley Gore
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too, if it happened to you
Nobody knows where my Johnny has gone
But Judy left the same time
Why was he holding her hand
When he's supposed to be mine?
Haivng a Part Sam Cooke
We're having a party
Dancing to the music
Played by the DJ
On the radio
The Cokes are in the ice box
Popcorn's on the table
Me and my baby, we're out here on the floor |

Death Of A Party - Blur
The death of the party
Came as no surprise
Why did we bother?
Should have stayed away
Another night
And I thought, Well well
Go to another party and hang myself
Gently on the shelf

You'll Always Find Me in the Kitchen at Parties - Jona Lewie
I'm no good at chatting up and I always get rebuffed.
Enough to drive a man to drink I don't do no washing up.
I always reached the stuff piled up
a-piled up in the sink.
But you will always find him in the kitchen at parties.
Me and my girlfriend we argued and she ran away from home.
She must have found somebody new and now I'm all alone
Living in my own. What am I supposed to do?
That's why always find him in kitchen at parties.
you will always find him in the kitchen at parties.
You will always find him in the kitchen at parties.

Green Green Grass of Home - Ted Hawkins (my favourite version)
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherries.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
Yes, they'll all come to meet me, arms reaching, smiling sweetly.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
Ladybird (Green Grass) - The Fall
People cannot see society had broken down
I sat upon the green grass but
it just brought me down
And the wife said 'get up' and it
just brought me round
Fly ladybird, get right outta town
Use your transparent wings
Ladybird fly, fly ladybird
Green grass was purple black and speckled all around

Jo Jo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it couldn't last
Jo Jo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass

Hole in my Shoe - Traffic
I looked in the sky where an elephant's eye
Was looking at me from a bubblegum tree
And all that I knew was the hole in my shoe
Which was letting in water (letting in water)
(letting in water)
I started to fall and suddenly woke
And the dew on the grass had soaked through my coat
And all that I knew was the hole in my shoe
Which was letting in water (letting in water)
(letting in water)

Grazing in the Grass--Friends of Distinction
It sure is mellow grazin' in the grass
(Grazin' in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)
What a trip just watchin' as the world goes past
(Grazin' in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)
There are so many good things to see
While grazin' in the grass
(Grazin' in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)
Seminole Wind--John Anderson
Ever since the days of old,
Men would search for wealth untold.
They'd dig for silver and for gold,
And leave the empty holes.
And way down south in the Everglades,
Where the black water rolls and the saw grass waves.
The eagles fly and the otters play,
In the land of the Seminole. |

You Gotta Have Heart
You gotta have heart
All you really need is heart
When the odds are saying, "You'll never win,"
That's when the grin should start
The Detroit Institute of Arts did a commercial in the 70's as a parody You Gotta Have Art. Pretty much anyone my age from Detroit can sing this commercial. |

Morrissey: Now My Heart is Full
…Tell all of my friends
(I don't have too many
just some rain-coated lovers' puny brothers)
Dallow, Spicer, Pinkie, Cubitt
rush to danger
wind up nowhere
Patric Doonan-raised to wait
I tired again I tried again, and
Now my heart is full
now my heart is full
and I just can't explain
So I won't even try to |
