There's A Party Going On

(album: If I Ruled The World - 1965)

There's a party going on
Somewhere
Wine in crystal glasses, girls in flowing silk
Girls with skin as clear as milk

It's all somewhere
I know it's there
There's a combo
Playing sweet music
Dancing on a terrace
And a lawn buffet
Butlers saying
"Right this way"

I walk right in
So debonair
There I am
Dancing up a storm
Saying clever things
There I am
Easy and polite
And clothes that fit just right

There's a party going on somewhere
Me, I'm just the joker that I've always been
Nose against the window, only looking in
I'm not there
I'm not there

Me, I'm just the joker that I've always been
Nose against the window, only looking in
I'm not there
I'm not there
There's a party going on...
