Blues Traveler

Blues Traveler - 1999 lyrics

Original Performer: Prince

Don't worry, I won't hurt you

I only want you to have some fun

I was dreamin' when I wrote this

Forgive me if it goes astray

But when I woke up this mornin'

Coulda sworn it was judgment day

The sky was all purple

There were people runnin' everywhere

Tryin' to run from the destruction

You know I didn't even care

'Cuz they say two thousand zero zero party over

Oops out of time

So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999

I was dreamin' when I wrote this

So sue me if I go too fast

But life is just a party

And parties weren't meant to last

War is all around us

My mind says prepare to fight

So if I gotta die

I'm gonna listen to my body tonight

Yeah, they say two thousand zero zero party over

Oops out of time

So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999

Yeah

Lemme tell ya somethin'

If you didn't come to party

Don't bother knockin' on my door

I got a lion in my pocket

And baby he's ready to roar

Yeah, everybody's got a bomb

We could all die any day

But before I'll let that happen

I'll dance my life away

They say two thousand zero zero party over

Oops out of time

We're runnin' outta time

So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999

Say it one more time

Two thousand zero zero party over

Oops out of time

No, no

So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999

Alright, it's 1999

You say it, 1999

1999

1999 don't stop, don't stop, say it one more time

Two thousand zero zero party over

Oops out of time

Yeah, yeah

So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999

Yeah, 1999

Don'tcha wanna go

Don'tcha wanna go

We could all die any day

I don't wanna die

I'd rather dance my life away

Listen to what I'm tryin' to say

Everybody, everybody say party

C'mon now, you say party

That's right, everybody say

Can't run from the revelation, no

Sing it for your nation y'all

Tell me what you're singin', baby say

Telephone's a-ringin', mama

C'mon, c'mon, you say

Everybody,

Work it down to the ground, say party

Come on, take my body, baby party

That's right, c'mon, sing the song party

That's right party

Got a lion in my pocket mama, say party

Oh, and he's ready to roar party

Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb?

Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb?
