World Party

(album: Private Revolution - 1987)

Can you hear the music?
It's coming from the forest
Where we used to live

Can you hear the laughing?
Coming from the clearing
At the bottom of the hill

(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
Climb the hill and see the creatures
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
Run about their world

(World party)
How can I say, no?
(No, party)

You know I've got to go
(Go, party)
Go to a world party

And tonight I'm going to ask a dolphin
See if you can find a tiger
Whose eyes are still alight

With your little head
In his mouth
Everything's gonna be alright

I hear there's going to be a harvest
Where every creature gets a share
Of life and food and light

(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
Unless we learn, we're the dumbest creatures
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
That ever walked the world

Are you going?
Yes, we're going to a world party
Well, how can I say, no?
Yes, we're going to a world party

You know I've got to go
Yes, we're going to a world party
You know, you know, you know, hey

Pa, party
Pa, pa, party

This party's in the mountains
And in the fields and on the shore
At the bottom of the sea

In the desert
In the marshes
Underground, up your tree

(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
And out in space you can hear the creatures
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
Sing about their world

Are you going?
Yes, we're going to a world party
Well, how can I say, no?
Yes, we're going to a world party

You know I've got to go
Yes, we're going to a world party
Yes, we're going to a world party
Yes, we're going to a world party

Yes, we're going to a world party
