Party Down The Hall

There's been a lot of commotion
 Up here on the third floor
 It took me a while to figure out
 What it was for
 Heard excited voices
 Packages brought in
 As we hurtle around the sun
 It's enough to make your head spin
 Oh, in this great wide world
 There's just one thing I know
 They're having a party down the hall
 And I don't want to go
 They've got the decorations
 They've been working on for days
 Expensive speakers
 Playing "Purple Haze"
 I got my invitation
 It came by U.S. Mail
 I've been hiding out
 All to no avail
 Oh, in this great wide world
 There's just one thing I know
 They're having a party down the hall
 And I don't want to go
 A girl walked by dressed as a ghost
 I guess it's a costume ball
 A man came as a pirate
 It might not be a costume at all
 He told her, "You should lighten up
 You look like the melancholy kind
 Life is for the living"
 And he took another drink of white wine
 Oh, in this great wide world
 There's just one thing I know
 They're having a party down the hall
 And I don't want to go
 A man without knowing why
 Approached a woman in red
 He said the first thing
 That came into his head
 He said, "Hi, you sweet little dear
 What's your heart's desire?"
 She said, "To take the songs I hear
 And convert them into fire"
 Oh, in this great wide world
 There's just one thing I know
 They're having a party down the hall
 And I don't want to go
 He said, "Well, I like your style
 I'll tell you what
 We'll sneak down the back stairs
 Find the field where the corn's been cut
 The stalks are hard as rocks
 We might not get too far
 But if you take my ice-cold hand
 We'll navigate by the North Star"
 Oh, in this great wide world
 There's just one thing I know
 They're having a party down the hall
 And I don't want to go
 They're having a party down the hall
 And I don't want to go
 They're having a party down the hall
 And I don't want to go
