When he turned 34 but who's counting
   He couldn't find anyone who wanted to party
   So he walked around a playground with a bag of Mickey's Tallboys
   And he heard the sound of laughter and he followed it for fifteen blocks
   There was a house between Mavis and Water
   They were out on the porch, they were inside playing quarters
   And he said, "Don't you know the game Kazaam? It's a better game,
   You point your elbow at someone and say somebody else's name
   And it alternates whose turn it is and if you lose you drink."
   They said "Man, you really make us think,
   yeah you make us think and so:
  
   Tonight we're gonna be the party
   We will party all night long
   We are the party generation
   So have a seat, what's in the bag?
   Party on.
  
   Round about one or two it started winding down
   And he knew what they needed- they needed donuts
   So they walked out to Krispy Kruller's All Nite Sugar Palace
   It was there in the doorway he said"Oh, well maybe not."
   Inside there were six women talking
   They were the most justified angry ex-girlfriends
   And they swivelled around slowly like they saw something bad
   Through the eyes i the back of their heads
   Like he always knew they had
   And they said "what a coincidence" ,and "Hey you're just the man,
   We were saying that you did the best you could
   You're fine we understand and so-
  
   Tonight we're gonna be the party
   We will party all night long
   We are the party generation
   You were the best but we'll survive
   Party On
  
   Oh yeah..........
   Oh yeah..........
   Woah-oh...........
  
   In the morning they sent him home with a designated driver
   And he lay down and thought about the whole night
   And he looked up at the photo tha the bought at a junk shop
   It was only fifty cents but he framed it and everything
   It was the kind of party that you hope never ends
   The lucky party boy surrounded by his friends
   And they were all in pointed hats
   Caught in a rebel birthday shout
   And he was at the candles with his mom there to help him out
   There was a lot that you could learn if you lay near them
   Like if you listened you could hear them and he could hear them
  
   They say:
  
   tonight we're gonna be the party
   We will party all night long
   We are the party generation
   So lift your head and blow em out
   yeah
  
   Oh yeah...
   Oh yeah
   Oh yeah..
  
   Tonight we're gonna be the party
   We will party all night long
   We are the party generation
   So lift your head lift your head
   Party on
  
   Chorus to fade out..
