Intro: Prince

Don't worry, I won't hurt you

I only want you to have some fun

Verse 1: Prince, Lisa, Dez, All

I was dreamin' when I wrote this

Forgive me if it goes astray

But when I woke up this morning

Could have sworn it was judgement day

The sky was all purple

There were people runnin' everywhere

Tryin' to run from the destruction

You know I didn't even care

Chorus: Prince and All

'Cause they say

2000, zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time

So tonight, I'm gonna party like it's 1999

Verse 2: Prince, Lisa, Dez, All

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

My mind says, "Prepare to fight"

So if I gotta die

I'm gonna listen to my body tonight

Yeah

Chorus: Prince and All

They say

2000, zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time

So tonight, I'm gonna party like it's 1999

Yeah, yeah, shh

Verse 3: Prince, Lisa, Dez, All

Lemme tell ya somethin'

If you didn't come to party

Don't bother knockin' on my door, oh, uh, ah

I got a lion in my pocket

And, baby, he's ready to roar, yeah, yeah

Everybody's got a bomb

We could all die any day, oh

But before I'll let that happen

I'll dance my life away

Oh

Chorus: Prince and All

They say

2000, zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time

(We're runnin' outta time)

So tonight, I'm gonna party like it's 1999

So tonight, we gonna, we gonna, oh

Say it one more time

2000, zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time

No, no

Tonight, I'm gonna party like it's 1999

So tonight, we gonna, we gonna, woo

Bridge: Prince and All

All right, 1999

You say it, 1999

Ooh, 1999, oh, 1999

Don't stop, don't stop, say it one more time

2000, zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time

Yeah, yeah

Tonight, I'm gonna party like it's 1999

So tonight, we're gonna, we're gonna, woo

Outro: Prince, Lisa, Prince and Lisa, All

Yeah, 1999

Don'tcha wanna go? (1999)

Don'tcha wanna go? (1999)

We could all die any day (1999)

I don't wanna die

I'd rather dance my life away (1999)

Listen to what I'm tryin' to say

Everybody, everybody say, "Party"

C'mon now, you say, "Party"

That's right, everybody say, "Party"

Can't run from revelation, no (Party)

Sing it for your nation, y'all (Party), wow!

Drum it with your fingers, baby (Party)

Telephone's a-ringin', mama (Party)

C'mon, c'mon, you say, "Party"

Everybody, two times, "Party"

Woo, work it down to the ground, say, "Party"

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (Party)

Come on, oh, take my body, baby (Party)

That's right, c'mon, sing the song, ”Party”

(Oh) (Party)

That's right (Party)

Got a lion in my pocket, mama, say, "Party"

Oh, and he's ready to roar (Party)

Ah

Spoken Outro: Lisa

Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb?

Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb?
