Party Police

(album: Alvvays - 2014)

Walking through the trees, I never really know what's on your mind
Is it ever me, or just someone you've left behind?
Floating through a dream, I never could make out the words you said
Sentences are bouncing back and forth inside my head

You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me
Forget all the party police, we can find comfort in debauchery

Fighting through the fog, I can't believe it rained all summer long
When every day's a hurricane, you know there's something wrong
I see you every day, it's hard to figure out what happens next
I cannot decipher conversation in your head

You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me
Forget all the party police, we can find comfort in debauchery
You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me
Forget all the local police, we can find comfort in biology

We wrote our names on the overpass and I hope it lasts forever
Don't have to
You don't have to

You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me
Forget all the party police, we could find comfort in debauchery
You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me
Forget all the local police, we could find—
If you don't want to, you don't have to
