Peter Gabriel
This Is Party Man
[Chorus]
So then, up upon this high wall
Looking at the street lights
All spread out like a banquet
Why is this room so silent?
Only when I'm moving
No direction chosen
Rolling over emotion
Guess I'm your party man
[Refrain]
P-p-party man, p-p-party man
I'm your party man
P-p-party man, p-p-party man
I'm your party man
P-p-party man, p-p-party man
I'm your party man
P-p-party man, p-p-party man
I'm your party man
[Verse 1]
[?], there he goes again
Hurdling around and around
Lost my frame of reference
Touch me to the ground
Put on that dress in which you were married
And a veil till your eyes are hid
There is so much to hang on to
Let us do as we did
[Chorus]
So then, up upon this high wall
Looking at the street lights
All spread out like a banquet
Why is this room so silent?
Only when I'm moving
No direction chosen
Rolling over emotion
Guess I'm your party man
[Verse 2]
[?], why these people
All stood around me?
Why those people
Sittin' in judgement?
When you are hurting like a mother
With a baby being born
And you are still hanging over me
Like the moon in the dawn
[Chorus]
So then, up upon this high wall
Looking at the street lights
All spread out like a banquet
Why is this room so silent?
Only when I'm moving
No direction chosen
Rolling over emotion
Guess I'm your party man
So then, up upon this high wall
Looking at the street lights
All spread out like a banquet
Why is this room so silent?
Only when I'm moving
No direction chosen
Rolling over emotion
Guess I'm your party man
[Outro]
Guess I'm your party man
Guess I'm your party man
