"DON'T KNOW HOW TO PARTY"
I've heard all the stories, the failure and glories I haven't had either.
Boast and toast I'm the best and I'm a mess.
I know I'm not neither.
Thought I was down as far as any man could go,
thought my highs were giant size.
I know now that's not so.
I know you heard, know you heard, know you heard.
Don't believe a word, not a word, one word.
It's been overblown, the truth should be known 'til now I couldn't see.
Put my cards on the table while I'm still able,
I guess I really don't know how to party.
It's blown out of whack,
the truth is what's lacking,
'til now I couldn't see.
The long and the short I'd like to report.
I guess I really don't know how to party.
Really don't, by any shape or form.
Whether straight up in the sunshine or passed out in the storm,
don't know how but now I know I don't.
Will it help me out? No, it probably won't.
Ten, nine ain't no hero number one at bad behavior.
Five, four, three, two, what? Not zero?
Don't go counting on a savior.
I was playing it safe when I'd fall on my face.
Entertainment was what I was after,
harmless fun, no damage done. I was out and about for the laughter.
Thought I was something,
really something no one was gonna touch.
Ace in the place, kingpin of sin I didn't know too much.
Don't believe everything you've heard,
don't believe a solitary word.
It's been overblown, the truth should be known, 'til now I couldn't see.
Put my cards on the table while I'm still able,
I guess I really don't know how to party.
Really don't, by any shape and form.
Whether straight up in the sunshine or passed out in a storm,
don't know how but now I know I don't.
Will it help me out, no it probably won't.
I don't have a notion and I don't have a clue,
an iota or an inkling where to start or what to do.
The foggiest, the faintest, the slightest I ain't got.
Will it help me out?
Nah, probably not.
