The Party Line

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Standing on the black and white tiles Don't dance on the lights because the bears eat the pretty ones We are like the islands divided [Chorus] Jump to the beat of the party line Jump to the beat of the party line There is no one in here but your body dear Jump to the beat of the party line Stay You stay [Verse 2] I am on this morning quite distracted The tug of war begins in our emotion I am leaving many people feeling Worse than before People like to drive the cars and smoke up People like to sit inside and toke up People like to shoot at things with borrowed guns And knives [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus x4]
