How did I get here? I heard a rumour From your girlfriend's sister that you knew me And you end up dancing closer to me
I know that I broke the rule already She asked me if I'm single Going steady I just drop my head and took a step off into the dark
Standing on the black and white tiles Don't dance on the lines Cause the bears eat the pretty ones We are like the islands, divided
Jump to the beat of a party line Jump to the beat of a party line There is nobody here But your body, dear Jump to the beat of the party line
Stay You stay
I am on this morning quite distracted The tug of war begins on our emotion I am leaving many people feeling Worse than before
People like to drive their cars and smoke up People like to sit inside and toke up People like to shoot at things with borrowed guns and knives
I am happy to look and run Where were you when I was king in this part of town? Now the days of glory are gone
Jump to the beat of a party line Jump to the beat of a party line There is nobody here But your body, dear Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of a party line Jump to the beat of a party line There is nobody here But your body, dear Nobody here But your body, dear
Jump to the beat of a party line Jump to the beat of a party line There is nobody here But your body, dear Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of a party line Jump to the beat of a party line There is nobody here But your body, dear Nobody here But your body, dear
